Abstract

At the very beginning of this work the considerations concerning the difficult market situation for European shipyards led to the formulation of two general questions:

  2. 2.

Once the theoretical assumptions regarding these problems were made based on an extensive literature review, it had to be validated whether or to which degree they could still be maintained after a comparison with social reality.
