Although produced in controversy, this book is not a controversial work. The calming effects of the years that have passed since the tumultuous days in Lubeck are enough to guarantee that these pages will accurately trace the coming and going of opinions, the battle for the truth and the recognition of error. In only a few passages, especially in Part Six, will one be able to tell from the tone of the book that it comes out of this struggle. For these I ask the indulgence of my reader, since they contain explanations the extent of which probably does not correspond either to the difficulty of the questions treated or to their influence. But in such passages the extent of treatment could not - as was otherwise the case - be made to depend solely on a judgment as to the value and significance of the investigations presented. There considerations of defense, more than concern for symmetry, had to determine the structure.

Mit dem vorliegenden Werk wird die zweite Auflage der Kommentierung Johann Georg Helms vollendet, die er im Jahre 1986 mit dem Speditionsrecht der AA 407 - 415 HGB begonnen und dem Band zum nationalen Frachtrecht mit den AA 425 - 452 HGB im Jahre 1994 fortgesetzt hatte, beide als Lieferungen zum GroAkommentar HGB und eigenstAndige Sonderausgaben erschienen. Der vorliegende Band behandelt die CMR, das Aoebereinkommen A1/4ber den BefArderungsvertrag im internationalen StraAengA1/4terverkehr. Der CMR kommt insoweit eine besondere, gesteigerte Bedeutung zu, als sie zugleich Grundlage des neuen deutschen Transportrechts im Gesetz zur Neuregelung des Fracht-, Speditions- und Lagerrechts vom 25. Juni 1998, dem Transportrechtsreformgesetz, war. Der Band enthAlt neben der Kommentierung des internationalen Einheitsrechts der CMR unter BerA1/4cksichtigung der deutschen und auslAndischen Rechtsprechung auch weiterfA1/4hrende ErlAuterungen zum aktuellen, nationalen deutschen Transportrecht. Die Neubearbeitung bietet dem Benutzer ein aktuelles und umfassendes Kompendium in der schwierigen Materie des internationalen Transportrechts. Neue Rechtsprechung und Literatur sind eingehend behandelt; die Bearbeitung hat den Bearbeitungsstand MArz 2001, teilweise noch darA1/4ber hinaus.
