Professor Han Meyer on sustaining the port-city: ‘In every phase of modernisation the city and the port have sought a new balance. In the current phase, at the beginning of the 21st century, the port is moving out of the city. A lot of people put this down to scale, and the increasing difficulties associated with the type of activities of industrial ports. This is true, but there is always something else playing a role, which has to do with the question of the relation between the city as global and the city as local.’ |
