Debattista on Bills of Lading in Commodity Trade provides not so much a linear road-map as a GPS system, allowing the reader to locate which aspect of the bill of lading is central to the dispute they are dealing with and evaluating that aspect from the perspective of each of: (1) the contract of sale; (2) carriage contract and (3) letter of credit. The title examines questions such as: How can a buyer ensure in their sale contract that the bill of lading the buyer receives from the seller gives them secure title to sue the carrier? What impact does the choice of a particular Incoterms rule have on whom the carrier can sue under the contract of carriage? Where there is a claim by a buyer/cargo-claimant for loss, damage or delay to goods, must they factor any gains or benefits made under the sale contract claim/settlement into the quantum claimed in the cargo-claim against the carrier? What is a 'charterparty bill of lading' - and can it be tendered under a letter of credit? When and why might a seller need to "switch" bills of lading for its buyer or its bank - and does the seller have a right to demand the switching of bills under the Hague-Visby Rules? All of these questions - and many others like them - cut across areas of law normally siloed in academic and practitioner texts. The purpose of this title is to make links and draw out connections, with a view to assisting lawyers when a dispute arises - and others drafting different contracts seeking to avoid problems arising in the first place. The fourth edition of this work, now bearing a new title and benefitting from the arrival of a co-author, has been fully revised to take account of case-law and regulatory developments in the twelve years since the last edition.

The issue of ownership is a vital one in international trade and one which is barely covered by existing international conventions. Although domestic rules may be familiar to local businesses, practical difficulties and legal uncertainty occur when foreign businesses try to ascertain the rules regulating ownership abroad and when the goods are being shipped by the seller to the buyer. This new, expanded edition is a unique comparative study of domestic laws in 23 major trading nations and a highly practical guide. Its in-depth analysis of the legal issues arising in connection with transfer of ownership will provide invaluable assistance to practitioners and anyone drafting or interpreting international sales contracts. Each country chapter is structured in the same way, so readers may easily compare national solutions to the same problems.

The Rotterdam Rules will be open for signature on September 23, 2009. These Rules represent the most comprehensive overhaul of the law of carriage of goods by sea in more than 50 years. To coincide with the signing ceremony, six members of the Institute of Maritime Law at the University of Southampton have written this book, a detailed commentary on the Rules. The book carefully examines the text of the Rules, all 96 articles of the new Convention, and compares them to the text of the Hague-Visby Rules, the instrument currently covering most bills of lading. The authors have also examined the judgments in cases decided in the English courts under the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1971 and the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1992, and have indicated whether these cases would be decided differently under the new Rotterdam Rules. This new addition to the Maritime and Transport Law Library series provides practical and rigorous answers to all the questions regarding cargo claims as they come t
