National Alliances and Global Webs: The Internationalization of Japanese Shipping
This chapter examines the process and factors necessary for the internationalisation of shipping to successfully occur, using Japan as an example. The chapter is divided into two sections:- the first studies the two factors that enable internationalisation - technology and investment - as they apply to Japanese shipping; the second examines the way internationalisation evolves, by presenting and dissecting two narratives - the rise of Japan’s trade networks, and alliances within the global web. The primary focus of study is the Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYT) shipping company.
Keywords: Maritime Japan, Nippon Yusen Kaisha, Mitsui Bussan, Japanese Shipping Networks, Freight Conferences
