Maritime trade is the backbone of the world's economy. Around
ninety percent of all goods are transported by ship, and since
World War II, shipbuilding has undergone major changes in response
to new commercial pressures and opportunities. Early British
dominance, for example, was later undermined in the 1950s by
competition from the Japanese, who have since been overtaken by
South Korea and, most recently, China. The case studies in this
volume trace these and other important developments in the
shipbuilding and ship repair industries, as well as workers'
responses to these historic transformations.
