内容説明

This critical study of the principles covering the carriage of goods by sea concentrates mainly on an exposition of the law relating to charterparties and bills of lading. Coverage is also given to the development of new forms of documentation and to problems arising from through and combined transport, in so far as they relate to carriage of goods by sea. Reference is made to the incidental factors involved in the prosecution of a cargo claim such as arbitration, proper law and Mareva injuctions. Emphasis is on an English common law approach though reference is made to international conventions and Commonwealth and US case material. The legal principles are examined critically against the background of contemporary practice in the shipping industry and full coverage is devoted to the recent and potential developments in the field. The textbook is intended for use on a degree course, the primary market being undergraduate and postgraduate courses in shipping law run by universities and polytechnics. However, it should also be useful for the Bar option on International Trade and for courses for Master and Extra Master's Certificates. It may also be useful as a basic reference work for members of legal firms, P & I Clubs etc in the City who are involved in carriage claims.
