This volume collects 16 papers from the September 2012 Eighth International Colloquium organized by Swansea Law School's Institute of International Shipping and Trade Law, held in Swansea, Wales. The papers examine current opinions, trends, and issues arising from contracts of carriage of goods by sea, land, air, and multimodal combinations. Specific topics include piracy and contracts of carriage by sea; liability for defective containers in cargo shipping; liability, jurisdiction, and enforcement issues in international road carriage; integrating international air and road carriage operational and liability issues; multimodal transport under the Warsaw and Montreal air law convention regimes; who contracts with whom in Chinese exports to the United Kingdom; issues of significance to international sales contracts and multimodal transport documents; the potential impact of the Rotterdam Rules (formally known as the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea) on shippers' obligations to carriers under bill of lading clauses in respect to goods shipped; multimodal bills of lading and limitation; the quest for an international multimodal transport convention; the overall impact of the Rotterdam Rules on the liability of multimodal carriers and their subcontractors; the liability of freight forwarders; terminal operators and liability for cargo claims under English law; and cargo insurance in the multimodal context.

Written by a combination of top academics, industry experts and leading practitioners, this book offers a detailed insight into both unimodal and multimodal carriage of goods. It provides a comprehensive and thoroughly practical guide to the issues that matter today on what is a very complex area of law.

From the papers delivered at the 8th International Colloquium organised by Swansea Law School's prestigious Institute of International Shipping and Trade Law, this original work considers current opinions, trends and issues arising from contracts of carriage of goods by sea, land, air, and multi-modal combinations of these, not to mention the legal position of vital participants such as freight forwarders, terminal operators and cargo insurers. The topics under discussion range through issues such as paperwork, piracy, liability for defective containers, damage in transit, the CMR Convention, and the possible effects of the Rotterdam Rules.

An indispensable resource for transport lawyers, industry professionals, academics and post-graduate students of maritime law.
