Over het boek:
Seaports find themselves embedded in ever changing and world embracing logistics chains and networks. Structural changes in logistics and the increasing importance of containerization and intermodality continuously challenge port managers and policy makers. The logistics environment leaves port managers puzzled with the question how ro respond effectively to market dynamics.
This book consists of a set of papers prepared by Belgian and Polish academics on issues related to port logistics and intermodality. This book not only examines the role of port logistics and intermodal transport from a conceptual point of view, but also explores how maerket players, port managers and policy makers, particularly in Belgium and Poland, are dealing with the new challenges in this field. This book builds on the authors' long history of research in port and transport economics and on earlier joint publications in the same field.
