Sažetak
Pomorsko pravo (Uporednopravna studija) / Maritime Law (Comparative Legal Study) is a comprehensive textbook of maritime law. In addition, it offers a comparative legal analysis of national maritime legislation in Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia and considers differences between national maritime legislation in Anglo-American and European countries.
In the introductory part, the authors define the concept and subject of maritime law by comparing it with other branches of law and other scientific fields that deal with certain aspects of shipping. This section also contains a historical and legal overview of the development of maritime law at the international and EU level as well as at the national levels of selected countries.
The first part of the book (“Ship and Shipping“) concerns maritime administrative law (the notion of the ship, ship registers, the safety of shipping) and maritime property law (ownership of the ship, ship mortgage, maritime liens, ship arrest, execution of maritime claims).
The second part (“Contracts, Transport Documents and Contractual Liability“) covers the conclusion and performance of various shipping contracts (types of contracts in maritime transport, contracts for the carriage of goods by sea, time charter, voyage charter, liability of the carrier for the goods, bill of lading and other documents, charter by demise, bareboat charter, contracts for the carriage of passengers and their luggage by sea, liability of the carrier for the passengers and their luggage, tug and towing contracts, the maritime agency contract). At the end of this part, the authors
examine the role of the contract for the carriage of goods by sea in the performance of the international sale of goods.
The third part (“Shipping Accidents, Extra-contractual Liability, System of General Limitation of Shipowner“s Liability“) mainly discusses “wet shipping“ (general average, collision, salvage, liability for the marine environment), with a specific chapter devoted to international and domestic laws regulating the limitation of the shipowner's liability.
The fourth (final) part (“Marine Insurance“) deals with all aspects of this very important area of maritime law (including the notion and essentials of the marine insurance contract, insurance policy and other documents of insurance, the rights and obligations of contracting parties, cargo insurance, hull insurance, liability insurance, the role of P&I Clubs).
The book is written clearly and systematically. It can serve as a high-quality university textbook and will be useful to all lawyers dealing with maritime law. This book will certainly provide the reader with a comprehensive set of information on international maritime legislation and on national legislation in selected countries.
