Soft Values of Seaports: A Strategy for the Restoration of Public Support for SeaportsMaklu Uitgevers N.V., 2007 - 191 páginas In present-day society, seaports have a very negative image, which is mainly due to the environmental pressures and pollution risks they cause, the monomaniac capitalist mentality of their operators, the dubious reputation of the shipping industry, the uninspired, strictly utilitarian design of port facilities and the dehu-manisation of port areas. Currently, the erosion of public support for seaports is a major issue in port management and policy. |
