In less than ten years, the carrying capacity of containerships has doubled, from 12,500 TEUs to 24,000 TEUs for the most recent Megamax-24 generation ships. In the interest of economic viability, ship- owners have set up maritime services in order to optimize their ports of call and therefore concentrate their flows on a limited number of ports. I...
Port communities in the North-West of France: territorials restructuring and governance. The cases of Dunkirk, Le Havre and Nantes-Saint-Nazaire
Following the 2008 port reform, the three autonomous ports on the western coast of France (Dunkirk, Le Havre and Nantes-Saint-Nazaire) became “Grands ports maritimes” (GPM). While their institutional gove...
Nowaday, political risk has become a pressing topic for logistics, shipping, with conflicts, civil unrest, piracy or cyber criminality. Ports, transport and shipping companies are facing an increase in disruption to supply chains and their operations. In this particularly turbulent geopolitical setting, the Baltic area is a part of the world analys...
The beginning of the twenty-first century has brought about multiple changes for French ports, such as increased competition and the loss of market share, as well as reforms that have reorganized the national port system. In this context, France's western coastline constitutes a major stake for the development of the country's foreign trade. Indeed...
The Mediterranean as a historic space of maritime transport has always been omnipresent given the compulsory nature of this form of transfer for commercial exchanges between its two Western shores and its geographical location on the major world routes. Today, with a globalised and highly competitive industry, the Mediterranean is experiencing a re...

Limite, la frontière est un lieu d’interaction, un objet matériel et symbolique qui questionne les géographes pour son aptitude à borner, définir, créer des territoires. Certes, elle sépare deux systèmes territoriaux définis par des cadres juridiques et institutionnels différents (Raffestin, 1986) mais elle peut également être appréhendée comme un...
Depuis une vingtaine d’années, la mer Baltique a été touchée par de multiples bouleversements d’abord géopolitiques, mais également économiques. Ceux-ci ont notamment obligé les ports à se transformer et à s’adapter aux évolutions de l’industrie maritime. Les ports de la Baltique orientale sont passés d’une situation de complémentarité, instruments...
Facing a phase of liberalization and deregulation, the relation between cities and ports has been thoroughly analyzed from different perspective in the last 50 years. Beyond simple coexistence, the issue is the creation of synergies benefiting to both entities. These movements have an impact on the new trajectories of governance and partnerships be...
World trade has changed in the twenty years such that container traffic flows are oriented towards more parts of the European continent. The European container port system is not a homogeneous set of ports; instead it consists of several big ports (e.g., Rotterdam, Hamburg, Algeciras...) and a large number of medium and small ports.
The main focus...
Maritime transport is the backbone of global trade, a component driving globalization. Over 80 % of world trade in volume terms and over 70 % in value terms is done by sea; these proportions are even higher in most developing countries. This unceasing growth in maritime trade raises important questions concerning the development of ports role in wo...
Since of the transformation of international trade and the revolution of containerization, the port has moved spatially away from the city. If in the big port cities there is a gradually functionnal disconnection between the city and its port, what is the situation in the medium port city ? Firstly, we propose a definition and a typology of the med...
Changes undergone in international trade have forced ports to transform and move away from the city. This spatial distance contributes to a re-composition of territories and local governance. The study of medium-sized port cities is particularly illustrative in this respect. Their city-port relationship is especially strong and the reciprocal impac...
Maritime industry transformations force ports to redefine their scope of activities and has an impact on the new trajectories of governance marked by a new level of complexity which has caused a reshaping of the actors' system involved in the organization of ports. Models of port governance commonly consider the "public sector" to be a homogeneous...
The main focus of the paper is on the container system development in the Baltic Sea Region studying cotemporary changes and organisation, as well as explaining the main driving forces of this situation.

The development of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for maritime use has been prompted by the significant reduction of SOx, NOx, and PM emissions it allows in comparison to conventional maritime fuels. In the Baltic Sea region, designated as a sulphur emissions control area (SECA) from 1.1.2015, interest to deployment of alternative bunker fuels, in par...
The Baltic Sea Region appears as a specific circulation space crossed by many formal or informal networks. Ports, maritime transport and the entire shipping cluster are crucially important in the Baltic Sea Region. After the collapse of the USSR, the Baltic Sea has recovered its role as contact area between East and West. So since 1991, the Baltic...
Europe represents only a quarter of the world cruise market, but its relative market share grows because the European market is catching up. Cruise passengers accounted for around 2 % to 3 % of all maritime passengers in the European Union. The dominance of the Mediterranean Sea basin is clear, representing approximately two thirds of all cruise pa...
The port community fulfils two functions in freight flow conversions: converting high-volume maritime traffic
that is random in nature into fragmented yet regulated flows in order to meet the requirements of the industry or
large-scale distribution. The paper therefore analyses the possibilities of integration in a singular location: the

The Baltic Sea has unique features. It is a young sea, regional sea. Few seas in the world are as vulnerable as the Baltic Sea. Its marine environment and coastal areas are in the heart of very different issues. The pressure from the populations’ activities has serious consequences, and the facades are exposed to pollution from various sources. The...
Sea transport is the main way of goods’ transportation between Europe and Asia, especially China. It is mainly using the royal road, passing through the Suez Canal. Many alternatives are studied, as the sea-air one, but it is expensive and limited to specific product families. Among them, using rail transportation through Russia appears like the mo...
Disintegration of the USSR and join of Baltic States to European Union made this one a border territory between Russia and EU. After the collapse of Former Soviet Union, the new boundary remained almost easy to cross. In the beginning of the 21th century, it became no more fuzzy but rather fixed. Since European enlargement that had taken place in 2...
