Abstract

The port cities have been affected by the strong transformations of the last decades and have been changing their characteristics and functions as economic integration processes advance. They are closely  determined both by their own geographical, morphological and spatial linkages as well as by economic markets. Therefore, they are placed in front of a double logic: the one of attraction and the one of rejection of the physical flows. Duality that is largely based on the works of the port-city interface and on the options for redevelopment of spaces in crisis. In this contribution will try to discern the formation of port knots following the evolution of cities, will show the evolution of physical dissociation between port and city to finally highlight the particularities of a number of European cities and ports in their tasks to redefine its port functions and its orientations around port-city relations
