Maritime ports and the cities hosting them have long fascinated scholars - geographers, economists, architects, urban planners, sociologists etc. - as they become centres of exchange where different social and urban environments meet, at the intersection between land and sea. Given that the current body of literature on the topic is biased - mainly concerning the Western world and East Asian region - with mono-disciplinary tendencies, this book outlines a theoretical basis from a wide range of literature, linking port-city studies, globalization theories and logistics, and adopts a multidisciplinary perspective. The main target audience of the book includes scholars and graduate students in urban studies, spatial planning, urban and regional economics, logistics, geography and transport geography with an interest in studying port geography and the port-city interface, port infrastructure development and port hinterland dynamics; it will also benefit policymakers and urban planners whose work involves these topics.--$$cProvided by publisher. 000944360 650_0 $$aUrban geography. 000944360 650_0 $$aUrban economics. 000944360 650_0 $$aEngineering economy. 000944360 650_0 $$aEconomic geography. 000944360 650_0 $$aShipping. 000944360 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030525775$$z9783030525774$$w(OCoLC)1156995731 000944360 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in applied sciences and technology.$$pPoliMI SpringerBriefs.$$x2282-2577 000944360 852__ $$bebk 000944360 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-52578-1$$zOnline Access 000944360 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:944360$$pGLOBAL_SET 000944360 980__ $$aEBOOK 000944360 980__ $$aBIB 000944360 982__ $$aEbook 000944360 983__ $$aOnline 000944360 994__ $$a92$$bISE
