Maritime Governance and South Asia/Морское управление и Южная Азия

Книга на английском языке
Since ancient times, the world’s mighty oceans have facilitated trade, the movement of peoples and ideas, daring the adventurous and reckless to seek fame and fortune, sustaining the growth of economies, cities and empires. In the 21st century, the oceans continue to beckon. The vast depths of the deep seas remain unexplored and unmapped; climate change threatens to raise the level, temperature and acidification of the seas, raising alarm bells about the fate of vulnerable communities and already fragile eco-systems. Expectations about the melting away of the Arctic and the opening of new shipping routes portend a scramble over resources, rights and regulations, whilst the “Blue Economy” has caught the imagination of many, calling broadly for the transformation of society through science, entrepreneurship and innovation but resonating especially with those in place to tap the marine world in a more effective and sustainable way.
