Overview of current trends in maritime transport in terms of transport sustainability
Abstract. The goal of the paper is to analyse current trends in the area of maritime transport in the context of their importance while achieving global sustainability of international transport. The second aim is to compare the findings with needs and requirements of the practice, in order to constructively formulate recommendations in relation to further orientation of the research so that a synergic effect of the theory and the practice for the sake of achieving a sustainable development of the society in a long-term horizon occurs. From the methodology perspective, to fulfil such a defined goal, a bibliometric analysis of available secondary data included in the reputable scientific database of Web of Science was applied, which was realised using VOSviewer software platform. Following the results obtained, it can be stated that contrary to the needs of the practice, the issue of a special interest in delivery of a consignment is not paid any attention in the scientific literature; the ambition of the authors of this article is to remove the shortfall and to fill the identified gap in the scientific literature.
