Maritime Transport Resilience – Charted Seas or Unknown Territory?.

Summary/Abstract: In recent years, especially after 2019, there has been a clear increase in interest in maritime transport resilience, so the main objective of this article is to examine and add to the state of the art of research on the maritime transport resilience in an increasingly uncertain environment. Through a systematic literature review (SLR), this study comprehensively examines the relevant literature on resilience and maritime transport resilience. For bibliometric analysis, 327 articles from the 2019-2024 period on the topic of resilience in the maritime transport were selected from the Scopus database. Selected texts were subjected to full-text analysis, for which the Authors used the narrative review method and the meta-analysis method. Analysed texts were divided into three subgroups based on the dominant subject of the study i.e.: (1) ports, (2) issues related to shipping lines, shipping network and their impact on other maritime actors, and (3) those dealing with various issues related to the resilience of maritime transport, such as employees or the implementation of modern technologies. The Authors have indicated causes of disruption that may affect maritime transport resilience i.e.: COVID-19, climate change and induced weather phenomena, and energy supply disruptions. The Authors indicated the need for a comprehensive analysis of the resilience of the maritime transport as a system.
