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).
