This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: South East Europe, Balkans, , language: English, abstract: This paper will explore China’s integration in the port of Piraeus and aims to answer the question whether it is a curse or blessing for the development of the port of Piraeus and in a broader sense for Greece. The paper will attempt to achieve this by analyzing the two different views and linking them with current debates and prevailing theories in development. The case study of the port of Piraeus can be linked to numerous current development debates and provides an ideal base for examination of a much broader phenomenon: the new global order with an emerging China and a struggling Europe. Is China taking advantage of the economic crisis in Greece? If so, does it matter? There are two different views concerning China’s integration in the port of Piraeus: Whilst the port unions accuse the Chinese of bringing third world labor standards to Europe, others state that China’s investments create an economic opportunity for a country in crisis.

Expert Panel on the Social and Economic Value of Marine Shipping in Canada and published by . This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The high standard of living that Canadians enjoy is dependent, in part, on Canada's involvement in global trade. About one third of exports and over a quarter of imports by value are transported by water. Shipping is vital to the competitiveness of Canadian commodity exports and is a lynchpin in many Canadian supply chains. In addition to its economic value, shipping is also critical to coastal community survival and food security in the Arctic, as it is often the only source of food and other supplies for Canada's most northern communities. Current trends in technology, climate change, emerging markets, and other factors, however, may influence the value of commercial marine shipping in the future. This assessment will explore the extent of both economic and social value of shipping on Canada and its regions while also looking at how shipping trends now underway might affect Canadian marine shipping activity in the future. Question What is the social and economic value of commercial marine shipping to Canada and its regions? How will global trends related to shipping affect future shipping activity in Canada?--
Download or read book Study on Social Aspects Within the Maritime Transport Sector written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis focuses on issues of EU relevance and covers the 2011 - 2018 period. The methodology deployed followed a mixed method approach. The study collected and analysed as much existing information and data as possible and complemented this with primary data collection. Country case studies were conducted looking at issues of education, attractiveness of the sector, gender equality in particular Member States. Thematic case studies were used to focus on issues like access to justice in maritime transport in the European Union. The study has also benefited from a large-scale consultation programme to gather views, and experiences directly from key stakeholders in the EU institutions and within the sector or with sectoral expertise. These methods were used to research the following areas in line with the terms of reference: (1) socioeconomic and technological developments in the maritime transport sector; (2) potential effects of digitalisation and automation; (3) social dumping and unfair competition; (4) control and compliance issues under the EU Directives that enforce the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006; (5) follow-up of the recommendations of the 2011 Task Force; and (6) the functioning of the EU sectoral social dialogue on maritime transport. The findings reveal a series of challenges facing the sector as follows: - shifting economic, technological and cultural dynamics that affect the attractiveness of the seafaring profession; - a socio-legal framework that leads to the non-application of the 'equal pay for equal work' principle on board; - difficulties in providing a comprehensive social security protection to seafarers and avoiding double taxation; - different levels of control and enforcement of the provisions of the MLC in different countries, 2006; - a need to enhance seafarers' access to justice and awareness of their rights, obligations and complaint handling procedures; - a commitment of social partners to the social dialogue process, but divergent views of what can be achieved, as well as divergences in terms of influences and resources. To help foster change, the study made recommendations relating to education, employment, gender and diversity matters, seafarers' access to justice, collective bargaining, social security, compliance and enforcement of existing legislation, and policy mechanisms, among others. As such, while examining policy achievements, gaps and shortcomings, it has identified initiatives which may enhance decent working and living conditions on board ships and increase the attractiveness of the seafarer profession.
