Global Shipbuilding Trends

Global Shipbuilding Trends examines the shipbuilding industry as a barometer of economic power, technological advancement, and geopolitical influence. The book analyzes how shifts in shipbuilding dominance, particularly the rise of China, reflect broader changes in the global order. A key insight is the understanding of how a nation's ability to construct sophisticated vessels demonstrates its industrial capacity and strategic ambitions. For example, the historical shift from British to American shipbuilding demonstrated a transfer of economic and military might. The book explores the interplay of government policies, technological innovation, and labor costs that have fueled these transformations. It contrasts the growth in Asia with the decline in the West, examining the implications for economic competitiveness and national security. The approach is holistic, connecting economics, political science, and international relations. It progresses from historical context to current landscapes, concluding with future trends like automation and sustainable shipbuilding.
