This article is a case note of the judgment of the Administrative Tribunal of Papeete of 18 May 1994, which concerned the illegality of the tariffs applicable to sea transport services. Mr Emile Vernaudon challenged the legality of a government decision which should have been taken after consultation with the councils of the archipelagoes. The author discusses two potential contentious points: a failure to legislate, and a failure to consult.

This article is a case note of a decision from the Administrative Tribunal of Papeete, French Polynesia. Although no constitutional provision speaks of it expressly in the context of the legislative regime of the Overseas Territories, the principle is that legislative speciality governs the application of metropolitan laws in the Territories. In 1992, however, the Territory of French Polynesia experienced a somewhat confused institutional situation: the fortunes of political alliances led Mr Vernaudon, member and President of the Territorial Assembly, and who was angered by the association of Mr Flosse (his former political ally) with Mr Juventin (his former rival) to make use of powers inherent in his position as President to refuse to call the Assembly to meeting. This article discusses two main issues stemming from these events: procedural guarantees (i.e. a failure to respect a member's rights), and constitutional reforms (i.e. whether the compulsory resignation principle is appropriate in French Polynesia). The author concludes that the compulsory resignation process should be repealed, as it seems particularly offensive to confer on a majority of a political assembly the power to dismiss any political opponent so easily.

The ASEAN and its dialogue partner countries agreed to reduce trade barriers in the services sector, one of which is sea transport services. The purpose of this study is to estimate the equivalent tax of non-tariff barriers in the sea transport services. Besides that, this study is going to analyze the economic impacts of the regulatory barriers elimination in the sea transport services of ASEAN and its dialogue partner countries. Using the gravity model, it can be identified that trade barriers of sea transport services sector of ASEAN and dialogue partner countries are still relatively high. Additionally, by adopting IC-IRTS model in Global CGE Model (GTAP), the simulation results show consistent results with the theory of pro-competitive effects. The greater gain from trade is obtained in the CGE model assuming IC-IRTS compared to PC-CRTS. China gains a greater benefit that is indicated by the highest increase in welfare and GDP followed by Japan and AustraliaDOI: 10.15408/sjie.v6i2.5279

The development of the considerable transport and logistics potential of the Kaliningrad region is hampered by several factors. This problem, to which we will refer to as a transport deadlock effect, translates into the limited contribution of transport to the regional economy. Particularly, it manifests itself at the level of regional gross value added, where the contribu­tion of transport is much smaller than one might expect given the significant role the industry plays in the economy of the region. In this study, we examine major ways of increasing the economic efficiency of the regional transport system from the value added perspective. We posit that the structure of cargo handled and the redistribution of value added in favour of regional actors have the dominant influence on economic efficiency. Using our own simula­tion model and the earlier developed system of transport tariffs and value added calculation for the Kaliningrad region, we produce scenarios and consider changes in value added in the case of selected cargoes carrying intermediate, investment, and consumer goods (as defined in the International Classification for Broad Economic Categories ICT BEC-4). Our calcula­tions show that higher value added and greater economic efficiency of a regional transport system are associated with re-orientation towards investment and consumer goods. The most visible effect is associated with rail and road transport. As to sea transport, the decisive role is played by an increase in the physical volume of cargo handled. The results of this study and its modelling tools can be applied in the analysis of the current situation and in the assess­ment of the efficiency of transport systems in other regions. Another possible application is the identification of growth conditions for an industry, particularly, when developing projects and proposals for increasing the efficiency of transport services.

The operation of shipping companies in today's rapidly changing conditions is associated with a number of complications due to the dependence of operating activities on many external factors. Recent developments and trends in world trade, characterized by uncertainty, a decline in the rate of growth in trade to rates below the growth of the economy as a whole, which requires a revision of the globalization model of development. Such changes can bring both positive effects and uncertainty in trade and shipping, mainly due to global shifts in the structure of transportation, production and consumption, which may reduce the demand for maritime transport services and the volume of sea transport. Recent trends in the shipping industry have weak growth rates, continuing problems of excess tonnage, imbalance between supply and demand. The article questions of compliance pace and marine transportation trends of the global economy and the need for traffic examines external factors, which have a direct or indirect effect on the development of the freight market: partnership in the field of infrastructure quality, changes in trade policy and liberalization, population growth and urbanization, growing cross-border e-commerce trade, circular economy, reduction of global use of fossil fuels. It is determined which of the factors will increase the volume of transportation and conversely, and that are able to change the structure of the world fleet. It is proposed to move on to new methods of forecasting sea trade flows, different from extrapolation of GDP and growth of trade turnover, including fiscal and environmental policies, as well as transport costs and regulatory aspects.

Maritime business is a paradigm of a global business. Its importance cannot be underrated as 90% of the world’s trade is at the present day carried by sea. In fact, the vast majority of the goods that form our daily lives depend upon the shipping industry. As ships sail in the seas and oceans of the world, and as ports are nowadays hidden away and not part of the everyday life of people in port cities, much of the shipping business is invisible and remains so to the mainstream business and management literature. Maritime business since, at least, the early modern period has evolved as a main factor for the communication and formation of the international and eventually global markets. Research in maritime business has evolved around the formation and transformation of shipping markets, the evolution of shipping firms and ship management, the effect of technology at sea transport and on its productivity and freight rates, on trends of the nationality of world fleet, and its denationalization or “flagging out,” on seafaring labor and risk at sea. A shipping firm is the economic unit that uses the factors of production to produce and provide sea transport services. It serves the world trade system which was consolidated in the 19th century, and the formation and organization of shipping firms followed the type of cargoes that had to be carried: first, bulk commodities carried in huge quantities like raw materials and second manufactured and packaged goods. The first type of cargo has been served by the tramp/bulk shipping companies and the second type by the liner/container shipping companies. Technology has been a watershed in the formation and transformation of the shipping firm. Five periods can be distinguished in the last two centuries in the evolution of the shipping industry and the shipping firm according to transformation of shipping markets and the introduction of new technologies: (a) up to the 1820s, (b) from the 1830s to the 1870s, (c) from the 1880s to the 1930s, (d) from the 1940s to the 1970s, and (e) after the 1980s. Until the last third of the 20th century Europe dominated the world fleet to be gradually replaced by the Asian fleets in the 21st century. Maritime business, is increasingly losing its “nationality” and is becoming global despite the fact that in sections of it there are powerful shipping families connected with certain nations. Shipping has always been a high-risk business, which, despite the evolution in many aspects of its operation, remains dependent on the acts of nature as well as on the acts of people, as the recent revitalization of piracy reveals.

Chartering is the part of international shipping business which broadly deals with the proper matching of cargoes’ transport needs and vessels’ commercial trading. Different charterers have different transportation needs. They do not all require the same sea transport service and not all charterers charter a particular vessel for the same reasons. Therefore, this paper intends to present how the charter market may be structured in response to trade’s needs and charterers’ requirements. The main objective of this paper is to constitute an overview of the shipping market segmentation into the various market segments. The analysis is based on the behavioural segmentation approach. This paper discusses mainly the conditions of charter market segmentation through relevant theories, reviews and some real cases analyses. Segmentation involves homogeneous buying behaviour of charterers within a segment but heterogeneous buying behaviour between segments. In respect of the trade’s needs, emphasis is given on charterers’ requirements in bulk market (dry and liquid) and on shippers’ requirements in liner market. Furthermore, the paper examines how the shipping companies should respond to their clients’ demands. Shipping enterprises have unique capabilities concerning the means, the resources and the management abilities for their ships. The matching of the shipping enterprise capabilities with the needs and the desires of its clients is fundamental for the provision of the desired transport services, the satisfaction and retention of charterers and thus the commercial success of the enterprise. Main objective of charter market segmentation is to assist the company focus its efforts to the most promising opportunities.
