The book highlights the Blue Economy concept as a potential driver of regionally sensitive, ecologically embedded, and community-focused sustainability. The scope for Blue Economy to form a core "cog" in our low-carbon future is obvious, from the potential for renewable energy production and coastal resilience building to possibilities for sustainable food production and the delivery of economic opportunities for peripheral communi...
Inequalities, Youth and the Labour Market

Maritime Security Challenges in the South Atlantic
This edited volume focuses on the South Atlantic regional and national issues with maritime implications: naval policy, security, transnational organized crime, and Europe's legacy and current influence. The work analyzes the positions in favor and against NATO’s extended role in the South Atlantic, the historical and current issues related to the Falklands War, the African national deficits, and initiatives to attend the regional maritime problems. Including contributions from Angolan, Brazilian, Senegalese, and US collaborators, the volume offers eclectic conceptual frameworks, rich historical backgrounds, updated data, original analysis models, and policy recommendations.
Maritime Mobilities
The central concerns of mobilities research – exploring the broader context and human aspects of movement - are fundamental to an understanding of the maritime freight transport sector. Challenges to the environment, attempts at more sustainable practices, changes in the geoeconomic system, political power, labour, economic development and governance issues are all among the topics covered in this book. The aim of this volume is to address issues of maritime transport not only in the simple context of movement but within the mobilities paradigm. The goal is to examine negative system effects caused by blockages and inefficiencies, examine delays and wastage of resources, identify negative externalities, explore power relations and identify the winners and losers in the globalised trade system with a particular focus on the maritime network. Maritime Mobilities therefore aims to build a bridge between "traditional" maritime academic approaches and the mobilities paradigm. This volume is of great importance to those who study industrial economics, shipping industries and transport geography.
Gouvernance de l'agriculture et mouvements paysans en Inde
Alors que le secteur agricole de l’Inde fait face à de nouveaux enjeux, la paysannerie renouvelle ses stratégies de mobilisation. En particulier, à travers la participation aux mouvements paysans, elle conteste la redéfinition de certaines politiques publiques et les conséquences de l’ouverture internationale. Quelles sont les modalités et les implications de cette action collective ? Comment influence-t-elle la gouvernance de l’agriculture, tant au niveau national que régional ? Partant de l’hypothèse selon laquelle les effets de l’ouverture sont négociés par d’autres acteurs que les institutions étatiques, Christine Lutringer propose un éclairage inédit sur les dyn...
