Lives in Peril demonstrates how and why seafarers are a vulnerable
group of workers. It argues they are made so by the organisation
and structure of their employment; the prioritisation of profit
over safety by the actors that engage and control their labour; the
limits of enforcement of the regulatory framework that is in place
to protect them; and by their weakness as collective actors in
relation to capital. The consequences of this vulnerability are
seen in data on their occupationally-related morbidity and
mortality - evidence that probably only represents a partial
picture of the actual extent of the physical, mental and emotional
harm resulting from work at sea. This volume's central argument is
that this situation is likely to remain broadly unchanged as long
as global maritime governance and regulation remains in thrall to
the neo-liberal economic and political arguments that drive
globalisation, and fails to enforce regulatory standards more
robustly.
