The UK is an island nation, connected to the world by seas and oceans. It's prosperity and security are conditional upon the free flow of goods, services, people and data across, through (and under) the global commons, and the sustainable management of the maritime ecosystem on which its climate depends. However, recent academic discourse has highlighted a maritime vacuum in the national consciousness. By reframing the conversation away from outmoded perspectives of 'sea-blindness' to one of 'Ocean Literacy', Maritime Britain seeks to explore the core role of the maritime sector in sustaining national security, prosperity, freedoms, and sustainability. In so doing, it aims to evolve the maritime argument, re-engaging decision makers to promote a coherent, positive and holistic long term approach to the nation's engagement with the sea.
The UK is a nation of islands with islands' interests.
Understanding and exploring these interests is the purpose of this book.
