Security networks in ports : what's in a name?

Author
Organization
Abstract
This chapter elaborates on the nature of security networks in ports. Four central findings are illustrated. (1) Security concerns in ports are often very local, and security providers participate more in local and national security configurations than transnational security networks. (2) Incentives for international collaboration are bigger in relation to cybersecurity than in relation to physical security issues in ports. (3) Professionals indicate that high workloads, a lack of time and organisational/operational issues inhibit them from building relationships or contacts with their counterparts in other ports around the world. (4) Superstructural nodes in ports might have the potential to generate attention for international issues if further nurtured and developed. These findings are illustrated on the basis of an empirical study in the port of Antwerp. Our findings have implications for policing maritime crime and are relevant to be further addressed by academics and practitioners in the future.
