Introduction -- Elements of instability in maritime commerce -- Global trade and maritime commerce -- Major ports and terminals -- Ports -- Shipbuilding, shipbreaking, and marine technology -- The workforce -- Security -- Piracy and armed robbery at sea -- The United States, India, and China in the Indian Ocean -- What can change, what cannot -- Evolution of energy and container traffic -- Systemic factors -- Looking ahead : security and commerce.

    The present work looks at the Indian Ocean as an increasingly vital maritime space. It looks at the maritime agenda from an economic and shipping perspective, but also factors in issues of security, from the safety of ships and their crews, to the larger security concerns of littoral states and major powers for whom the sea is a lifeline for prosperity and growth. We have organized this study, which we hope will serve as a useful reference document to diverse audiences, into three broad categories: Maritime Commerce, Maritime Infrastructure and Maritime Issues and International Security
