This paper researches the role of the port authorities in port governance, and the role of the port authorities in Port Community System implementation. The authors provide the theoretical frameworks of seaports, port authorities, port governance, and Port Community Systems. The literature review was carried out using the Web of Science database and additional relevant sources. The authors concluded that although different port governance models exist (regarding the type of port authority), there is no evidence as to which governance model is universally preferable, as it is specific to each seaport. In addition, the research has shown that port authorities play a very important role in the implementation of a Port Community System, increasing the sustainability of seaport operations. Its implementation enables the port authorities to evolve into real digital hubs and neutral data managers, which ultimately leads to the optimization of seaport processes and more efficient use of transport infrastructure.

港口当局在港口治理和港口社区系统实施中的作用

本文研究了港口当局在港口治理中的作用，以及港口当局在港口社区系统实施中的作用。作者提供了港口，港口当局，港口管理和港口社区系统的理论框架。文献综述使用Web of Science数据库和其他相关资源进行。作者得出的结论是，尽管存在不同的港口治理模型（关于港口当局的类型），但没有证据表明哪种治理模型是普遍适用的，因为它是每个港口所特有的。此外，研究表明，港口当局在港口社区系统的实施中发挥着非常重要的作用，从而提高了港口作业的可持续性。
