Издание на английском языке
An academic discipline evolves as knowledge, experiences and insights are accumulated and tested over the period by scholars and scientists as well as industry professionals. Maritime logistics is certainly one of the newly generated disciplines, which is currently being developed from segmented or occasionally fragmented sectorbased works on shipping and ports from the managerial, economic and operational perspectives of shipping, ports and logistics. Transportation in general is regarded as a main engine for logistics and supply chain management. Transportation by sea is well recognised as the main means for regional and international trade: so-called seaborne trade; it carries almost 90% of world freight cargoes. Recent developments in the business environment such as globalisation, off-shoring and outsourcing have, however, caused sea transport to be incorporated into a global logistics supply chains. In other words, shipping and ports are to be managed and operated from a logistics and supply chain perspective.
