Options for reviving U.S. shipbuilding are analayzed, along with balance of payments implications, and sealift and national security requirements. The book offers a detailed program for American maritime renewal. It is intended for maritime, national security, international trade, and foreign policy audiences. Extensive data and tables allow for a comprehensive assessment of the U.S. merchant marine and the global shipping industry, with substantial historical background. Nearly two thirds of world shipping is done under flags of convenience. The significant over-tonnaging, subsidies and/or restrictions, and shipping friendly policies present in many countries create strong competitive pressures. Unfortunately, the U.S. and British merchant marines are in serious decline. But the Japanese, Chinese, Greeks, and Scandinavians are thriving at sea. And many European Union, Asian, and former Eastern bloc nations are likely to remain determined competitors. U.S. maritime policies need overhaul and a more realistic outlook.

Download or read book The Common EU Maritime Transport Policy written by Athanasios A. Pallis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s there were two major developments to the Common EU Maritime Transport Policy (CMTP): the establishment of European Union policies on safe seas and on shortsea shipping respectively. This book critically analyzes and appraises these and other developments to the CMTP in this period, while also studying policy Europeanization. It focuses on both the economic environment of maritime transport and the interaction of policy makers and organized interests during the policy-making process, with an emphasis on the political dimensions. By developing an innovative economic model, the book examines the ways in which governmental and non-governmental policy makers and their ideas interact within the EU's structure and dynamics, and shows how these factors account for why, when and how the specific common EU policy has developed.
Download or read book Framework for the Development of National Shipping Policies written by United Nations. Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific and published by United Nations Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

It will be of considerable interest to all students globally who are studying for professional seafaring qualifications, to graduate students studying for masters courses in ship and port management, and to welfare professionals and policy makers. It is of special interest to those connected to the shipping industry who specialize in issues relating to 'the human element' and will serve as a paradigm defining text in this area.

Download or read book Maritime Governance and Policy Making written by Michael Roe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-20 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A close analysis of the framework of existing governance and the existing jurisdictional arrangements for shipping and ports reveals that while policy-making is characterized by national considerations through flags, institutional representation at all jurisdictions and the inviolability of the state, the commercial, financial, legal and operational environment of the sector is almost wholly global. This governance mismatch means that in practice the maritime industry can avoid policies which it dislikes by trading nations off against one another, while enjoying the freedoms and benefits of a globalized economy. A Post-modern interpretation of this globalized society prompts suggestions for change in maritime policy-making so that the governance of the sector better matches more closely the environment in which shipping and ports operate. Maritime Governance and Policy-Making is a controversial commentary on the record of policy-making in the maritime sector and assesses whether the reason for continued policy failure rests with the inadequate governance of the sector. Maritime Governance and Policy-Making addresses fundamental questions of governance, jurisdiction and policy and applies them to the maritime sector. This makes it of much more interest to a much wider audience – including students, researchers, government officials, and those with industrial and commercial interests in the shipping and ports areas - and also of more value as it places the specific maritime issues into their wider context.
