International Transfer of Tacit Knowledge
This article analyzes the transfer of tacit knowledge between countries and continents, based on a case from the shipbuilding industry. The South Korean shipbuilder Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) was established in the early 1970s and had by the late 1980s become the world’s leading shipbuilder. Aided by foreign loan capital, HHI acquired technology through foreign licenses and imported equipment. However, shipbuilding is about more than hardware…
Constantly crossing borders
A simplified production function framework is used to identify and analyze the international aspect of the maritime industries. The article focusses on four parameters – the market, the ship, the labour force and the shipowner – to discuss the development of the shipping industry. It is suggested that with the current technology, around 170 ships and less than 600 seafarers would have been needed to transport all the world trade in 1900. Finally,…
Shipping and Globalization in the Post-War Era
Without shipping and its ability to forge connections and networks of a global reach, the modern world would look very different. This introductory chapter provides a broad sketch of the relationship between shippingshipping and globalization in the post-war era. Shipping was both an example and an engine of globalization in this period. It was among the first industries exposed to fierce globalized competition, and the shipping industry experien…
Conclusion
The concluding chapter sets the findings of the individual chapters into the wider context of global history and the history of globalization. It argues that shipping as both an engine and an example of globalizing processes helps understand and illustrate the dynamics and periodization of globalization, in particular through its entanglements with the transformation of states and borders over the post-war period. This is examined first through a…
Shipping and Globalization in the Post-War Era
This open access volume uses interdisciplinary approaches to present new research on shipping and globalization over the last sixty years, with a focus on linkages between the shipping industry and the wider economy and society, considering the impact this has had upon the modern world.
Maritime trade and merchant shipping
This article discusses the development of countries’ market shares in world shipping over the last 150 years. The analysis is based upon a new and purpose-built indicator: the shipping/trade ratio. This indicator presents the relationship between the merchant marine of a country and the country’s role in world trade. Analysis of the shipping/trade ratio identifies two important developments. First, although the share of the world fleet registered…
Maritime history
This article discusses publishing trends within maritime history. The first part uses a purpose-built database to analyse information on more than 300 authors who have published in the International Journal of Maritime History, the leading journal within the field. The analysis of these data reveals that there is a substantial heterogeneity among those that publish maritime history articles. The second part of the article compares the development…
British financial, managerial and technical assistance in establishing the global shipbuilding giant, Hyundai Heavy Industries
The aim of this article is to present the early history of Hyundai Heavy Industries, currently the world’s largest shipbuilder. The company was established by the prolific South Korean entrepreneur Chung Ju-Yung in the early 1970s. Due to limited experience in shipbuilding, the establishment relied heavily on foreign assistance. This article sheds new light on the crucial relationship between Chung and two British companies: the Newcastle-upon-Ty…
Globalisation and maritime labour in Norway after the Second World War
This article looks at how ‘Globalisation’ – narrowly defined as the causes and effects of increased international economic integration – has influenced the demand for and supply of maritime products and services, with a particular emphasis on maritime labour. A central argument is that the manner in which labour has been affected varies enormously among the maritime industries, and there is also variation among different occupations and countries…
Sharing Mare Nostrum
The two regimes of postwar shipping
The aim of this article is to illustrate the most important changes in the regulatory framework of the shipping sector from the 1960s to 2010, and to analyse the basis for, and effects of, these changes. In order to explain how the transformation has occurred, we use two traditional maritime nations—Denmark and Norway—as case studies. First, we introduce the two regimes of Danish and Norwegian shipping: ‘the national regime’ from the early 1960s …

So Nice in Niches
Leadership in world shipping
Vernon's product life cycle and maritime innovation
One of the most important developments in the post-war shipping industry has been the introduction of specialised ship types that have gained market shares in the transport of a large number of cargoes. The share of specialised tonnage in the Norwegian fleet increased from less than 1% in 1960 to more than 30% by 1987. This trend towards increased specialisation did not occur to the same extent in all maritime centres. In an international perspec…
Globalisation and Norwegian shipping policy, 1850–2000
The shipping industry has been called 'the first globalised industry'. In this paper we analyse how domestic regulations have shaped the adaptations of ship owners in Norway, one of the leading providers of international shipping services for more than 150 years. The paper deals with the interaction between the international and domestic aspects of the shipping industry, with particular emphasis on demand (the market for shipping services), labou…
Norway's Interwar Tanker Expansion – A Reappraisal
The topic of the article is the Norwegian expansion within oil tanker shipping in the interwar period, which is\nanalysed on the basis of new empirical evidence. By means of a purpose-built database, the basis for the\nexpansion is analysed and traditional accounts of the growth of Norwegian tanker shipping are challenged and\nmodified. Previously, the purchase of second-hand tankers from Anglo-Saxon Petroleum Co. has been seen as\nthe most impor…
