This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 2,0, University of Applied Sciences Mainz (Wirtschaft), language: English, abstract: Participation in large-scale international projects (also called megaprojects) has a significant impact on multiple international parties, especially in the industrial plant construction sector. On the one hand, the participation of multiple parties can lead to higher levels of technological achievement. On the other, this participation also leads to greater risk and liabilities for parties. Contract management plays an increasingly important role in megaprojects; it is aimed at identifying and limiting risks that are typical to international industrial plant construction contracts and specific to megaprojects. However, to use these contracts optimally, it is essential to have a comprehensive overview of the main issues of liability. Nowadays, 89% of large German companies consider limitation of liability clauses to be highly important. This is why the main objective of this research was to explore knowledge and insight in regard to limitation of liability clauses. The core questions were addressed such as the important types of liability, the main types of limitation of liability clauses and the restrictions of the limitation of liability clauses. The methods applied to collect and analyze the relevant data were systematic approach, key word search, snowball system and discussions with legal experts from similar megaprojects.
Download or read book Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims written by Xia Chen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Limitation of liability for maritime claims is an important system for the shipping industry. The original rationale for such a system was to encourage the shipping enterprise. However, in our today's much changed world, the system has been under severe attack and has been described as `hopelessly anachronistic'. Yet, the debate over repeal or retention of the system is far from settled. This book traces the history and development of limitation law around the world. It compares various limitation laws in operation under different legal regimes. In particular, it analytically scrutinizes the limitation systems under U.S. law, Chinese law and international conventions. It explores the possibility of international uniformity of maritime limitation law and points out that complete uniformity will not be achieved unless the United States joins the international community. It concludes that although there is a need for reform of the system, limitation of liability for maritime claims is here to stay. This book also thoroughly examines the limitation system under the Chinese legal regime through comparison with U.S. law and in the context of international conventions. Both practitioners and academic scholars will find this book helpful in understanding Chinese law in general and Chinese maritime limitation of liability in particular.
