This governance mismatch means that in practice the maritime industry can avoid policies which it dislikes by trading nations off against one another, while enjoying the freedoms and benefits of a globalized economy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Post-modern interpretation of this globalized society prompts suggestions for change in maritime policy-making so that the governance of the sector better matches more closely the environment in which shipping and ports operate. \u003ci\u003eMaritime Governance and Policy-Making\u003c\/i\u003e is a controversial commentary on the record of policy-making in the maritime sector and assesses whether the reason for continued policy failure rests with the inadequate governance of the sector. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMaritime Governance and Policy-Making \u003c\/i\u003e addresses fundamental questions of governance, jurisdiction and policy and applies them to the maritime sector.
