This book provides an up to date overview of Mediterranean port cities and their challenges in a ‘liquid’ world. It interrogates emerging cultural narratives of these places, new morphological approaches to understand their transformation, and the global pressures and local dynamics that shape them.The volume provides a compendium of themes and an actionable research agenda to explore twenty-first century port cities, their changing culture and transformation, against the complexities and existential challenges of the Mediterranean region. It does so by embracing the seismic changes and uncertainty of our current times.The book is addressed to scholars and students engaging with port city studies from a wide range of disciplines including urban planning, human geography, urban sociology, maritime anthropology, cultural policy, maritime and naval history.
