"Europe and the Maritime World: A Twentieth-Century History offers a new framework for understanding globalisation over the past century. Through a detailed analysis of ports, shipping and trading companies whose networks spanned the world, Michael B. Miller shows how a European maritime infrastructure made modern production and consumer societies possible. He argues that the combination of overseas connections and close ties to home ports contributed to globalisation. Miller also explains how the ability to manage merchant shipping's complex logistics was central to the outcome of both world wars. He chronicles transformations in hierarchies, culture, identities and port city space, all of which produced a new and different maritime world by the end of the century"--

Britain's emergence as one of Europe's major maritime powers has all too frequently been subsumed by nationalistic narratives that focus on operations and technology. This volume, by contrast, offers a daring new take on Britain's maritime past. It brings together scholars from a range of disciplines to explore the manifold ways in which the sea shaped British history, demonstrating the number of approaches that now have a stake in defining the discipline of maritime history. The chapters analyse the economic, social, and cultural contexts in which English maritime endeavour existed, as well as discussing representations of the sea. The contributors show how people from across the British Isles increasingly engaged with the maritime world, whether through their own lived experiences or through material culture. The volume also includes essays that investigate encounters between English voyagers and indigenous peoples in Africa, and the intellectual foundations of imperial ambition.

In this authoritative study, first published in 1981, Geoffrey Scammell traces the course of European expansion between around 800 and 1650, during which time the world known to western Europeans was enlarged in a way unparalleled before or since. The book takes a broad historical perspective, linking the classic age of European expansion to its medieval antecedents. The Norse reached North America in the tenth century, Italian missionaries and traders were established in China in the high Middle Ages, and during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, in some of the greatest voyages ever made under sail, Iberian explorers crossed the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and established footholds in the Americas, Africa and Asia. This is a stimulating and perceptive study, based on wide-ranging research, which makes an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the influence of empire on both colonial and metropolitan societies.

Between the end of the Seven Years war in 1763, and the abolition of slavery within its Empire in 1833, Britain's maritime engagement with the wider world was transformed. The essays in this book explore different aspects of that transformation, and in so doing assess the significance and complexities of Britain's maritime world in this key period, which was characterized by the contradictory and competing forces of revolution and reaction, 'liberty' and imperialism, war and peace, enlightenment and enslavement. They were originally delivered as lectures in a series jointly sponsored by the Institute of Historical Research and by the Centre for Imperial and Maritime Studies at the National Maritime Museum.

This study aims to provide new insights into the connections between maritime history and global history. It demonstrates the significance of maritime activity as a conduit of global exchange by examining local, national, and international interdependencies and trade networks, and a broad range of time periods, geographical areas, and various sub-divisions of maritime historical research. It is composed of ten essays, with an introductory chapter and concluding chapter. The first five essays discuss the effects globalisation on shipping in the early modern period; the following three discuss maritime transportation and the economics of industrialisation from the nineteenth century to the present day; the next discusses the impact of global entrepreneurialism on maritime history; the penultimate discusses the connections and variables between maritime and global history; and the concluding chapter examines the theoretical assumptions surrounding the two disciplines, using the globalisation of Early Modern Spain as a case study to do so. The study demonstrates that the core strength of maritime history is its essential place in global history, and that the process of globalisation began at sea.

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 19/20, Sciences Po., Paris, course: Law of external relations of the EU, language: English, abstract: It is clear to the EU that shipping is an activity of international nature that requires intensive communication between involved parties and thus cannot be managed well by a single country. Following, the increasing involvement of the EU in the IMO has to be recognized and investigated. It should be considered which role the EU should play in the IMO, and how this role and expectations thereof have evolved over the years. To explore this, this paper firstly lays out the shipping policies of the IMO and the EU, before moving to the position that the EU holds within the IMO through its status and participation. Then, a timeline of the Commission’s attempts of obtaining a full membership is explored, explaining international and Member States’ responses. Finally, the paper explicitly addresses the legal challenges of reaching a full EU membership and elaborates on the duty of loyalty. The paper finds out that there are both advantages and disadvantages of an EU membership in the IMO through the Commission, and suggests that instead, a reinforced coordination between the EU and its Member States might be the better and more realistic solution for the EU/IMO relationship. The European Union made out of its 27 Member States spreads over 70,000 km along fours seas and two oceans. 41% of the world’s fleet is controlled by European companies. The EU plays a crucial role in the shipping world, and is responsible for ensuring the sustainability of the marine environment in order for its sea-related companies to be competitive and thrive. Another entity that shares these responsibilities of “safe, secure and efficient shipping on clean oceans” is the UN’s International Maritime Organization, established in 1948. Albeit its significant role in international maritime decision-making, the EU is not a member of the IMO, as membership is reserved for states only. The EU possesses the most advanced and comprehensive regulatory framework for shipping worldwide – the 3rd Maritime Safety Package. However, internationally an opinion has been formed that the EU’s approach is rather regional and unilateral and could thus possibly undermine the authority of international law.
