Abstract: After World War I, the war-inflated shipbuilding operations in Germany had a capacity of some thirty to fifty percent over demand. A reduced demand for new vessel constructions, low cargo rates and the lack of orders for war vessels led to a ruinous crisis in the shipbuilding sector lasting from 1924 to 1934, with an interim respite from 1927 to 1929. Shut-downs, closures and mergers were the consequence. Due to their unfavourable location, the shipbuilding companies in the Baltic Sea regions were hit disproportionately hard by the capacity scale-down and the structural crisis. By means of strikes, the shipyard workers and labour unions attempted to hold onto the privileges they had obtained after World War I, but to little avail. The Verein Deutscher Schiffswerften (VDS; association of German shipyards) tolerated the tough competition within the sector, to which many well-known German shipyards fell victim despite numerous technical innovations.
