Port governance and resilience: bibliometric insights and expert feedback on the case of Le Havre[Gouvernance portuaire et résilience : éclairages bibliométriques et retours d’experts sur le cas du Havre]

The Covid-19 crisis, climate change, geopolitical conflicts, and changes in ship trade routes have generated unprecedented disruptions in fragmented and globalized maritime logistics chains. Port logistics, whose function is to move goods through logistics corridors, has faced challenges such as equipment shortages, lockdowns, and port closures. The objective of this research is to examine the relationships between the main stakeholders of port governance and how they can steer the system towards a more resilient configuration. E. Ostrom's IAD (Institutional Analysis and Development) framework appears as an interesting approach that can help advance the understanding at the system level of port governance by viewing it as an action situation, an infrastructure for processing physical and information flows that interacts with external infrastructures of a technical or human nature and natural infrastructures (the river).
