Description
This new work acts as a comprehensive commentary on the new UNCITRAL Convention on Contracts for the International Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea, and is written by three of the experts most involved with the drafting of the Convention. It places the convention in its historical and commercial context, and explains the intended meaning of all the principal provisions. The new Convention provides the basic rules governing how goods are conveyed by sea, and replaces the 1924 Hague Rules, the Hague-Visby Rules and the Hamburg Rules. This work is the definitive treatise on this fundamental development. Provides a thorough treatment of, and commentary upon, all the provisions of the Convention. Includes many worked examples - hypothetical cases with explanations of how they would be resolved under the new Convention. Explains the intended meaning of all of the principal provisions. Follows the organisation of the Convention itself with its layout and structure. Authoritative analysis that can be relied upon, from three of the principal architects of the Convention.
