Hague Rules, 1921, defining the risks to be assumed by sea carriers under a bill of lading, were framed by the Maritime Law Committee of the International Law A ssociation. After consultation with representatives of the interests concerned from numerous maritime States the Rules were settled during a conference of the Association at the Hague in September, 1921. The conference approved the Rules, and recommended them for international adoption. Shipowners, shippers, consignees, bankers and underwriters, as well as lawyers, collaborated in the drafting, .discussion and settlement of the Hague Rules. I ndeed, the Rules are the outcome of a series of developments in which all those interests have been concerned. There can be no doubt, observed Lloyd s List in recording the adoption of the Rules, that, of late, the sense of dissatisfaction among shippers with the existing state of things has become more marked, and shipowners, while reluctant to abandon their position of freedom to agree terms of contract with individual merchants, have recognised that, as a matter of business, they should meet, as far as possible, the wishes of their customers.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book simplifies and standardizes the allocation of risks between sea carriers and cargo owners under a bill of lading. It is a result of collaboration between shippers, consignees, bankers, underwriters, and lawyers. The bookâs main focus is to present a fair and equitable basis for the carriage of goods by sea with terms that can be incorporated into all ordinary bills of lading. Prior to this, the field has been rife with disagreement and controversy between parties with differing interests. The author has drawn upon the valuable input of all parties involved to bridge the gap between them. This book is significant as it successfully provides an agreed-upon set of terms to govern the carriage of goods by sea, which simplifies and standardizes a complex area of law that was previously subject to widely varying interpretations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
