Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the tumultuous world of 19th-century maritime Britain, exposing a stark contrast between the ideals of subordination and the harsh realities of insubordination aboard merchant ships. The author, a seasoned mariner, presents a scathing critique of the prevailing disciplinary practices of the time, arguing that the absence of a codified system of maritime law has led to widespread chaos and injustice. Through vivid firsthand accounts and legal case studies, the book unveils the struggles of commanders and officers grappling with mutiny, desertion, and rampant misconduct among crew members. The author contends that the lack of clear legal authority and recourse to summary punishments, such as flogging, has eroded discipline and jeopardized the safety of both lives and property at sea. The book's exploration of maritime governance extends beyond mere anecdotes, delving into the complex interplay between societal norms, economic pressures, and evolving notions of justice. The author's impassioned pleas for reform resonate with a sense of urgency, as he warns of the dire consequences of unchecked insubordination for Britain's commercial prosperity and naval supremacy. Ultimately, this book serves as a compelling testament to the critical need for a comprehensive and equitable maritime legal framework, one that safeguards the rights of seafarers while upholding the essential principles of order and control upon which the very foundations of a maritime nation rest. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9780282888374_0
