Since the Titanic disaster of 1912, the horrors of major maritime
casualties have prompted international conventions and domestic
legislation, but the link between events and outcomes (which are
often separated by many years) is rarely understood by those
working in the maritime industry. This book, the only comprehensive
guide to this link, sets forth the major casualties of the last
hundred years and explains resulting regulatory changes. Taking a
macro-level view, it describes the trends and reactions across
decades, and how, over time, focus has shifted from equipment
failures to people and their behaviors as the primary cause of
maritime casualties. Timely and thorough, it also explores the
alarming increase in the criminalization of maritime accidents,
especially the relatively recent reclassification of pollution
incidents as "environmental crimes." This book offers broad insight
to the history, laws, and conventions that regulate worldwide
commercial maritime activity.
