This course deals with the transport of goods in international trade. We live in a world where the movement of goods is a fundamental part of international and domestic affairs, and litigation related to these transportation disputes is inevitable. The course is based on English law, with comparisons with practice in other jurisdictions where appropriate. English law is often chosen to govern ship contracts, as the common law nature of English law allows for judicial “creativity”. We are therefore witnessing the development of this area of contract law, which aims to meet the needs of those involved in the international shipment of goods. The course mainly includes contacts for the carriage of goods by sea and contracts of affreightment, as most goods are transported by this mode of transport, although air and land transport is introduced. The course also takes into account the difficulties that arise when goods are the subject of a multimodal transport contract and the problems that arise when freight contracts are negotiated by carriers. The combination of the intellectual rigour of the law and commercial realities makes it an interesting topic. Stresses the importance of accounting issues for legal practice.
