Description
Turkey is one of the largest and most important shipping and logistics centres in the world. This edited collection brings together industrialists actively involved in the shipping trade with an interdisciplinary team of academics from the region to provide a unique, broad perspective on the industry as a whole. Using Turkey as an in-depth case study, the volume examines issues such as port economics and policy, training and education, ship finance, containerisation and maritime policy in general. This is a useful reference for professionals and academics in both shipping and logistics.
Reviews / Votes
'The essays in this volume provide comprehensive coverage of the wide span of Maritime and Logistic Activities in Turkey. In doing so it offers a range of perspectives for understanding the various objectives, mechanisms and institutions involved...The editor in picking his team of authors has managed to provide us with a much needed treatment of a contentious subject with noticeable fairness and understanding; both when dealing individually with less familiar topics or making a reassessment of the wider more familiar ones...The merit of this selection is that it presents a composite analysis of nearly every sphere of the subject.'
