Sinopsis

This book is about an industry that has been entirely neglected by social scientists - the maritime car carrier industry. This industry is already globalized, probably more than any other with the possible exception of finance, which attracts a great deal more attention. The book examines the maritime car carrier industry in respect to changes in cost structure and dynamics, in ownership, freight, labour and other markets, in technological innovation and ship design, and in relation to car manufacturers, ship management companies and crewing agents.
