The boundary between public and private interests and the balance between local and national claims: the French experience.
Résumé
This paper will begin by attempting to give an account of existing research and new methodological approaches with regard to port governance and performance and then go on to propose an analytical grid. This grid defines the factors that have to be considered when analyzing port projects and detailing the various stages involved in their implementation. The analytical grid serves as a basis for developing a port model that allows us to analyze the concerns of each of the partners with regard to the geographical scale in question for the implementation of a new port project. The case of Le Havre's new port, Port 2000, is used to illustrate the situation in France. Section 2 describes the context that explains how Port 2000 came into being, including the crisis situation and the loss of support for the port that occurred in the 1990s, and the shortcomings of the facilities and services available at the port, especially in comparison with those provided by the port's northern European competitors. In Section 3 the port model is employed to describe the Port 2000 project, which contains many unique features, including the ability to retain local involvement port operations, while ensuring the port improves its global relationships.
