Popis: Together with the energy transition, digitalization and automation are two major drivers of industrial change in the maritime sector. This chapter explores this current wave of innovation. In particular, it studies the socio-economic tensions stemming from digitalization and automation. First, it explores the state-of-the-art of technological development; subsequently, it addresses tensions stemming from the in-creasing use of new technologies in both areas. By reviewing cases of innovation and their consequences, the chapter highlights the insufficient attention towards their social consequences. In particular, the text points out possible implications of the ongoing transition for labour markets and the power dynamics between different stakeholders. Finally, the chapter addresses possible implications for shipping indus-tries around the world
