This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rotterdam Rules are intended to be a single source of legal solutions to issues, problems and disputes arising in modern international trade by sea. They aim to bring greater uniformity and to update and modernise existing provisions to facilitate trade while maintaining an appropriate balance between the interests of carriers and shippers. Whether the Rotterdam Rules will be a success as the international convention of maritime transport law remains open to question at this stage. This thesis will offer an answer as to whether the Rotterdam Rules, particularly as compared with the Hague/Hague-Visby Rules and the Hamburg Rules, will be a successful single legal solution to international trade by sea in the 21st century. This thesis focuses on three particular areas: multimodal transport, the transport document and risk management. As regards multimodal transport, the issues discussed are the limited scope of the Rotterdam Rules and conflict problems between the Rotterdam Rules and the existing unimodal conventions. Then we consider whether the Rotterdam Rules are a big step forward in international multimodal transport. As regards the transport document, this thesis sets out to answer the question of whether the Rotterdam Rules have succeeded in terms of setting up a satisfactory and workable legal framework for the transport document and the electronic transport record. As regards risk management, the thesis considers the problem of the burden of proof under the existing conventions and assesses how well the new structure of allocation of the burden of proof under Article 17 of the Rotterdam Rules will work in practice. In conclusion, the thesis offers a view on whether the Rotterdam Rules should be accepted and supported by the industry.

Book excerpt: The regime governing the carriage of goods by sea has been for a long time the subject of criticism, such as for being out of date, fragmented, uncoordinated with other related transport regimes, leading to unpredictable results, or posing obstacles to the development of modern contract practices. The Hamburg Rules, prepared in 1978 with a view to improving the situation, have in the meantime entered into force but fell short of expectations in that they have not become a basis for a universally accepted regime; the Rules have also increasingly been seen as not addressing issues crucial for modern sea carriage. It has also been realized that the existing regime, whether based on the Hague, Hague-Visby, or Hamburg Rules, does not properly accommodate modern trade practices, such as those treating the carriage of goods by sea as part of wider door-to-door commercial transport operations and those relying on electronic commerce. Nevertheless, such criticism and considerations were for a long time unable to coalesce into a realistic plan for improving the situation.

This book was released on 2011-08-08 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international carriage of goods by sea has been regulated by international conventions. These include the “International Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules of Law relating to Bills of Lading” (“Hague Rules”); the “Protocol to Amend the International Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules of Law Relating to Bills of Lading” (“Visby Rules”); and the “UN Convention on the Carriage of Goods by Sea." They were adopted in 1924, 1968 and 1978 respectively and the transport industry's commercial needs have since substantially changed. Furthermore the advent of subsequent regimes has resulted in the uniformity in the carriage of goods by sea once provided by the Hague Rules being lost. In order to update and modernize existing regimes the “UN Convention on Contracts for the International Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea” (“Rotterdam Rules”) was adopted on December 11, 2008 by the UN General Assembly and opened for signature on September 23, 2009. Since then drafters of the Rotterdam Rules, academics and practitioners have been publicizing, discussing, and evaluating the Rules. This book is an effort to further explore those same goals.

Download or read book Uniformity of Transport Law through International Regimes written by Olena Bokareva and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniformity of Transport Law through International Regimes addresses the problem of uniformity of transport law and the potential solutions at international and EU levels. It concerns transport conventions and other instruments dealing mainly with carriage of goods by sea and multimodal transport as well as examining the Rotterdam Rules as one of the solutions towards uniformity in carriage of goods law. The discussion on international uniformity in transport law is complemented by an examination of regional harmonization in the context of EU law-making and jurisprudence in the field of international transport. The comparison between international and regional regimes reveals the complexities in application and interpretation of the certain transport conventions which is detrimental to achieving uniformity.
Download or read book Right of Control in the Law of Carriage of Goods by Sea written by Liang Zhao and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea 2009 (known as "the Rotterdam Rules"), the right of control exists for the first time in the international legislation on the carriage of goods by sea. It was designed to provide those with cargo interests with the right to give instructions to the carrier for variations in the contract of carriage by sea. However, it is unknown whether this right is appropriate for the law and practice of carriage of goods by sea. This book is to examine the right of control in the context of the Rotterdam Rules, non-sea carriage conventions, domestic judicial practices and international shipping trade. It is concluded that the right of control in the Rotterdam Rules is not an appropriate concept for the international law of carriage of goods by sea. The author, therefore, proposes new provisions on the basis of Section 7-303 of the US Uniform Commercial Code in the form of model law or model provisions for future legislation or protocol of the Rotterdam Rules.

Download or read book The Obligations of the Carrier Regarding the Cargo written by Ilian Djadjev and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the legal and contractual obligations of sea carriers regarding due care for the cargo under a contract of carriage. While the general framework employed is the leading international liability regime, the Hague-Visby Rules, the discussions in each chapter also account for the possible future adoption of a new regime, the Rotterdam Rules. The subject matter concerns the standard for the duty of care for goods as codified in the Hague-Visby Rules, but the work also touches upon a wide range of related topics found both in law and in practice, providing valuable commercial, technical and historical links as well as various solutions that have been found at the national and international level to address challenges arising in this specialised area of law. The book is divided into six chapters, which gradually reveal the complexity of the topic. Chapter 1 provides a thorough introduction to the two main transport documents in use, and to the basic logic behind shipping, sea-going trade and related national and international legislation. In turn, Chapter 2 presents an overview of the relevant provisions of the Hague-Visby Rules. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 examine the problems arising out of the insertion of a FIOS(T) clause in the contract of carriage; the carriage of goods on deck; and the carriage of goods in containers, respectively. Lastly, Chapter 6 provides an overall conclusion on the legal status quo and current practice, as well as future prospects. The book was written with a number of potential readers in mind and is intended to open up the topic to a broader audience. It is suitable both for readers who wish to advance their learning (e.g. professionals, practitioners and postgraduates) and for readers with little or no prior knowledge of the topic (e.g. students and researchers).
