Framework for the Development of National Shipping Policies by United Nations. Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific Pdf
In the last decade developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region achieved a high degree of economic growth, and this was accompanied by a rapid increase in sea carried overseas trade. In 1998 nine out of the world's twenty largest container ships were from Asia but their ownership was limited to a handful of countries in the region. The disparity between the success stories and the shipping services of the majority of the region's developing countries is very wide and still widening. Part of the explanation for this is that while developing countries wish to maintain a shipping presence, their shipping industries have not been afforded the high priority within the industrial development of these countries. Recently countries in the region have recognised that shipping services are an important element of continued economic growth, and that unless concerted action is taken, their national shipping services will be marginalised by the global competition. The dilemma for many countries is this: on the one hand they wish to maintain a presence through the development of national shipping capabilities; on the other hand they want their overseas trade to enjoy the competitive shipping services offered by foreign shipping lines. National maritime administrations must evaluate the shipping potential of their country and formulate appropriate shipping policies to reconcile these issues. The focus of this publication is trade and service related shipping policies. It sets out issues that should be considered by policy makers in determining national shipping policies and provides a framework and the tools to analyse these issues. A policy that is appropriate for one country may not be appropriate for another, and so each country has to work out its shipping policies in the overall context of national economic objectives and its shipping potential.
The Political Economy of International Shipping in Developing Countries by Okechukwu Chris Iheduru Pdf
Shipping has played a pivotal role as the vector or artery through which this trade is conducted and in which this pattern of inequality has only recently been challenged by the South.
The Development Dimension Sustainable Ocean for All Harnessing the Benefits of Sustainable Ocean Economies for Developing Countries by OECD Pdf
Adopting more sustainable ways of managing the ocean is a global priority: protecting its health will bring benefits to all. Developing countries face specific challenges, as many depend heavily on ocean-based industries and are overly exposed to the consequences of ocean degradation.

Coastal Zone Management Imperative for Maritime Developing Nations by B.U. Haq,Gunnar Kullenberg,Jan H. Stel Pdf
Anthropogenic transformation of the coastal zone continues at a steady pace, especially in the developing maritime countries, where coastal resources are often crucial to national economies. However, exploitation of these resources is often indiscriminate, ill planned, or carried out without adequate scientific knowledge. This leads to rapid resource depletion, and often irreversible environmental degradation. The 1992 Rio de Janeiro UN Conference on Environment and Development recognized the expediency of an integrated and sustainable use of all coastal resources, functions and services grounded on sound scientific data. The present volume is based on the 1994 international workshop Integrated Coastal Zone Management, and brings together contributions by leading specialists both on basic concepts and on applications of coastal management. The work is divided into six parts, dealing with the conceptual framework of ICZM; regional and global aspects of coastal management; environmental assessment in ICZM; capacity building and technology transfer; monitoring and environmental analysis; and case studies and status of ICZM plans. The book also incorporates an interactive ICZM planning module, COSMO, which can be of use in designing a management plan for a coast. Attention is also given to long-term environmental effects of present-day actions. It is hoped that COSMO will prove an additional learning tool for ICZM practitioners and enhance the value of the book. This work is intended to give a broad coverage of conceptual and technical aspects of ICZM, and will be of use to operational executives as well as students of ICZM, environmental economists, policy-makers and senior managers in the international development agencies and governmental and non-governmental organizations. It can be recommended as a textbook and as a reference work.
This report explores the growth prospects for the ocean economy, its capacity for future employment creation and innovation, and its role in addressing global challenges. Special attention is devoted to the emerging ocean-based industries.

Maritime Private Security by Patrick Cullen,Claude Berube Pdf
This book examines the evolution, function, problems and prospects of private security companies in the maritime sector. The private security industry continues to evolve after its renaissance over the past few decades, first in Africa, and later in Iraq and Afghanistan. Despite this, little academic work has been done to date on the role of private security in the maritime environment. This lacuna has become more pronounced as the threat of piracy, terrorism, and other acts of maritime political violence have caused littoral states and commercial entities alike to consider the use of private security to mitigate risks. Maritime Private Security is an edited volume specifically dedicated to combating the absence of academic research in this area. The discussion of this multi-faceted subject is organised into four key parts: Part I: The Historical and Contemporary Market in Maritime Private Security Services Part II: The Emergence of Private Anti-Piracy Escorts in the Commercial Sector Part III: The Privatization of Coast Guard Services Part IV: Private Security Responses to Maritime Terrorism This book will be of much interest to students of naval policy and maritime security, private security companies, piracy and terrorism, international law and IR in general.

Review of Maritime Transport 2015 by United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) Pdf
Access to frequent and reliable shipping services is key for developing countries’ trade with overseas markets. Firms cannot export competitively and participate global value chains without adequate transport connectivity, and maritime transport continues to be the dominant mode of shipping goods. Seaborne trade accounts for about 80 per cent of global trade volumes, with an even higher share for most developing countries. As in previous issues since 1968, the 2015 Review of Maritime Transport contains a wealth of analysis and unique data. The Review is the renowned United Nations source of statistics and analysis on seaborne trade, the world fleet, freight costs, port traffic and the latest trends in the legal and regulatory environment for international maritime transport. This year’s Review includes a special focus on maritime transport and sustainable development.
More than 80 per cent of international trade in goods is carried by sea, and an even higher percentage of developing-country trade is carried in ships. This annual publication is an important source of information on this vital sector. It closely monitors developments affecting world seaborne trade, freight rates, ports, surface transport, and logistics services, as well as trends in ship ownership and control and fleet age, tonnage supply, and productivity. The Review contains a chapter on legal and regulatory developments and each year includes a chapter highlighting a different region.
