Book EU Maritime Transport Law

Download or read book EU Maritime Transport Law written by Henning Jessen and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waterborne transport is of crucial importance within the European Union. Almost 90% of the EU external freight trade and 40% of the intra EU-exchanges are carried by sea. With respect to its significant coastline, the environmental aspects of shipping transport services have to be considered carefully within the EU. Each year, the European ports have to cope with more than 400 million passengers. Thus, the shipping sector is also an important employer. This commentary on EU shipping law provides a comprehensive article-by-article analysis of the relevant regulations and directives of the shipping sector. It systematically covers the main issues, which include access, regulatory, environment, health/safety, consumer protection, carriage of goods/passengers, means of transport, competition, state aid, infrastructure, labor, and litigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is concerned with the harmonisation of maritime safety legal systems in Europe. It describes maritime safety legal systems in selected European countries as well as maritime safety issues from the perspective of the International Maritime Organisation, European Union, and European Free Trade Association. Distinguished scholars from Europe's leading maritime law academic centres present national perspectives of maritime safety systems, questioning whether the adopted national solutions guarantee the compatibility with IMO and EU legal regime, as well as assessing the global and EU system. Moreover, the book seeks to provide some answers as to whether the IMO goals on maritime safety are adequate in light of current safety challenges and how to achieve higher level of enforcement of internationally-recognised maritime safety standards. It will be of great assistance to those readers who need to familiarize themselves with current problems inherent in maritime safety, whether that be lawyers, scholars, professional mariners, or national institutions.

Book European Union Maritime Safety Policy and International Law

Download or read book European Union Maritime Safety Policy and International Law written by Henrik Ringbom and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive international law analysis of the European Uniona (TM)s maritime safety legislation. This is a relatively novel field of activity of the EU, but its development has been very rapid. Since 1993, over 40 acts of EU law have been adopted, dealing with a variety of subjects, such as port State control, classification societies, vessel traffic management, ship construction, environmental protection and pollution sanctions. This legislation is analysed from the point of international law, notably the law of the sea and the international maritime conventions. Regional legislation in a field that is traditionally regulated primarily by means of international conventions is bound to create tensions with the related international conventions and with well-established principles of international law. This study assesses how the EU has acted as a flag State, port State and coastal State and measures the trends in this development against the international legal framework. More detailed legal analyses are offered for specific aspects of EU legislation that are considered to be particularly interesting from an international law point of view. The relationship between EU law and international law within the internal EU legal system is also analysed from the specific perspective of maritime safety law.

Book Maritime Safety Law and Policies of the European Union and the United States of America  Antagonism or Synergy

Download or read book Maritime Safety Law and Policies of the European Union and the United States of America Antagonism or Synergy written by Iliana Christodoulou-Varotsi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-18 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Maritime Organization (IMO), as the United Nations specialized agency responsible for the regulation of shipping engaged in international trade from the points of view of maritime safety and the prevention and control of pol- tion by ships, recognizes that these goals can only be effectively achieved if each and every link in the corresponding chain of responsibility meets fully its obli- tions. Flag, port and coastal States, as well as the shipping industry itself, all have roles to play in collectively improving safety and protecting the environment, both marine and atmospheric, through the development, adoption, and uniform imp- mentation and enforcement of, global standards. In this book, Dr. Christodoulou-Varotsi sets out to explore the extent to which the actions of the European Union and the United States, as the main originators of high standards in these fields, constitute a paradigm to the rest of the inter- tional maritime community. In this regard, while underscoring the need for a - listic, multilateral approach to maritime regulation – as epitomized by the work of IMO – the author explores how standards could be enhanced through the use of unilateral action.

Book The European Union in the International Maritime Organization  Which Role Should the EU Play

Download or read book The European Union in the International Maritime Organization Which Role Should the EU Play written by Sophia Milusheva and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 19/20, Sciences Po., Paris, course: Law of external relations of the EU, language: English, abstract: It is clear to the EU that shipping is an activity of international nature that requires intensive communication between involved parties and thus cannot be managed well by a single country. Following, the increasing involvement of the EU in the IMO has to be recognized and investigated. It should be considered which role the EU should play in the IMO, and how this role and expectations thereof have evolved over the years. To explore this, this paper firstly lays out the shipping policies of the IMO and the EU, before moving to the position that the EU holds within the IMO through its status and participation. Then, a timeline of the Commission’s attempts of obtaining a full membership is explored, explaining international and Member States’ responses. Finally, the paper explicitly addresses the legal challenges of reaching a full EU membership and elaborates on the duty of loyalty. The paper finds out that there are both advantages and disadvantages of an EU membership in the IMO through the Commission, and suggests that instead, a reinforced coordination between the EU and its Member States might be the better and more realistic solution for the EU/IMO relationship. The European Union made out of its 27 Member States spreads over 70,000 km along fours seas and two oceans. 41% of the world’s fleet is controlled by European companies. The EU plays a crucial role in the shipping world, and is responsible for ensuring the sustainability of the marine environment in order for its sea-related companies to be competitive and thrive. Another entity that shares these responsibilities of “safe, secure and efficient shipping on clean oceans” is the UN’s International Maritime Organization, established in 1948. Albeit its significant role in international maritime decision-making, the EU is not a member of the IMO, as membership is reserved for states only. The EU possesses the most advanced and comprehensive regulatory framework for shipping worldwide – the 3rd Maritime Safety Package. However, internationally an opinion has been formed that the EU’s approach is rather regional and unilateral and could thus possibly undermine the authority of international law.

Book EU Competition Law applicable to liner shipping and seaports

Download or read book EU Competition Law applicable to liner shipping and seaports written by Philippe Corruble and published by Bruylant. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In twenty years, the globalization of trade has led to a change in scale that has upset the balance of power between the players in online containerized maritime transport and the logistics chain passing through European seaports. Three global shipping alliances dominate 90% of online containerized maritime transport, while further integrating port activities. Twelve Asian ports, eight of which are Chinese, are now among the top fifteen in the world. At the same time, Chinese interests, supported by public authorities and resources, are taking control of terminals and port companies in Europe, as part of the geopolitical project of the New Silk Roads. This economic and industrial context is emblematic of the challenges facing European competition law, which has so far accompanied rather than controlled these transformations. European competition rules will have to be mobilized in a global context, alongside the new rules on the control of foreign direct investment. This study takes stock of the new regulatory challenges in this sector of prime importance for the Union.

Book Uniformity of Transport Law through International Regimes

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.

Book Competition and Regulation in Shipping and Shipping Related Industries

Download or read book Competition and Regulation in Shipping and Shipping Related Industries written by Antonis Antapassis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-05-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maritime competition as an economic phenomenon is currently influenced by a number of factors both at EU and international level. From a legislative point of view, the recent repeal of EC Reg. 4056/1986 affects the treatment of horizontal agreements not only in the liner but also in the bulk sector, which was excluded until recently from the scope of EC secondary competition rules. However, competition distortions are not only a question of private arrangements. They emanate also from measures and practices incompatible with the freedom to provide services, Member states’ protectionism and international mandatory regulation. This volume comparatively and comprehensively examines all these issues, by bringing together contributions from distinguished academics. Particular focus is given on private shipping cartels, the liberalization of cabotage and port services, indirect competition-distorting factors and the latest developments on international regulation of carriage of goods by sea.

Book Transport Law on Passenger Rights

Download or read book Transport Law on Passenger Rights written by Marko Pavliha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe and also the rest of the world has experienced a boom in mobility over the last thirty years. In light of the protection of increasing number of consumers – passengers it is almost logical that during the past few decades, international and European transport law has developed almost to revolutionary extent, especially in the field of private aviation (air) law with the introduction of unlimited liability of carriers for death and injury of passengers and commendable sophisticated rights in case of denied boarding, cancellation of flights and long delays. This book will cast light through a critical prism on the most important characteristics of the international transport law, the EU legislation and jurisprudence regarding passenger rights during the carriage by air, sea, rail and road. One of the ideas which, however, needs further research is that the commendable legal solutions and experience of the EU can serve as an excellent framework for a new holistic international convention on passengers rights in all transport modes.
