Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis and literature review on maritime transport resilience and its impact on international trade. It categorizes and benchmarks risks affecting maritime transport resilience, including climate change, geopolitical conflicts, and public health events. Previous research focuses on climate change-related risks, primarily sea-level rise and storms, evolving from qualitative to quantitative methods. Research on public health events, especially pandemics, has emerged, highlighting global supply chain resilience and maritime transport. However, more comprehensive economic evaluations utilizing analytical models and simulations are needed to assess costs and benefits of adaptation strategies. Limited research exists on geopolitical risks and their impact on maritime transport resilience and international trade, with fragmented studies lacking attention in this critical research direction. Recent conflicts like the Sino-US trade conflict, Russia-Ukraine war, and Israeli-Palestinian conflict have profoundly affected maritime transport resilience, international trade, and the global economy. Future studies should prioritize economic implications of maritime transport resilience, particularly regarding geopolitical risks. In-depth economic evaluations, analytical modeling, and numerical simulations are necessary to inform policymakers and industry practitioners for enhancing resilience in the maritime shipping sector. The study offers valuable insights, guiding further investigations and contributing to the development of a robust global supply chain.
