Abstract

ABSTRACT Shipping is the ‘invisible’ backbone that keeps the global economy moving, even during the COVID-19 crisis. This article examines the extent to which seafarers have access to satisfactory shore-based welfare services/facilities (SBWS) that meet global regulatory standards under the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC). In particular, this article provides an empirical analysis of the implementation of relevant laws and MLC in European countries and China. While China has become a dominant player in world trade in recent years, the existing literature (especially in English) pays little attention to China’s implementation of MLC provisions, including SBWS provisions. To bridge this research gap, this article critically evaluates SBWS in practice in China, using manually collected data, and compares China’s arrangements with those of European countries. After exploring the different models adopted by Western countries and China, this article evaluates key SBWS providers in China through various lenses – past, present, and future initiatives.
从马克思到市场:中国海事劳动公约的法律与实证分析
摘要航运是推动全球经济发展的“无形”支柱,即使在新冠肺炎危机期间也是如此。本文探讨了海员在多大程度上能够获得符合《海事劳工公约》全球监管标准的令人满意的岸上福利服务/设施。特别是,本文对欧洲国家和中国相关法律和MLC的实施情况进行了实证分析。尽管近年来中国已成为世界贸易的主导者,但现有文献(尤其是英文文献)很少关注中国对MLC条款的实施,包括SBWS条款。为了弥补这一研究差距,本文使用手动收集的数据,对中国实践中的SBWS进行了批判性评估,并将中国的安排与欧洲国家的安排进行了比较。在探索了西方国家和中国采用的不同模式后,本文从过去、现在和未来的各个角度对中国的主要SBWS提供商进行了评估。
