International and Comparative Perspectives

604 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Marine transport, and the law and policy within which it operates, must be seen as very similar to other international undertakings operating on a transnational scale." These concluding words in Edgar Gold's Maritime Transport (Lexington, 1981) aptly capture the past, present and future of the regulation of international shipping. The Regulation of International Shipping: International and Comparative Perspectives in Honor of Edgar Gold pays tribute to a mariner, legal practitioner and university teacher with a unique understanding of shipping and maritime trade. With diverse disciplinary backgrounds and perspectives, the distinguished contributors to this tribute examine the public law and policy framework for international navigation, the complex relationship between shipping and the marine environment, the imperative of better protection of seafarers, and ultimately, responsible ocean use. This book includes biographical and bibliographic notes on Edgar Gold.
