Unmanned Ships and the Law
This book considers the law relating to the legal aspects of unmanned ships. The author, a doyen of shipping and insurance law from Turkey, delves into the current international legal regime and examines the probable impact of unmanned ships on liability and carriage of goods in a wide-ranging manner. He examines both the legal aspects and technological peculiarities of unmanned ships, as well as contemplating terminological and linguistic questions, to find out whether they can be compatible with the current legal regime applicable to ships in general, while considering alternatives to enable their successful use in the near future. Unmanned Ships and the Law is therefore important not just for legal practitioners and academics in shipping and insurance but all those in related industries of shipbuilding, computer technology and communications.
Uncrewed Vessels and International Law
This policy-oriented jurisprudence presents the latest research findings on legal challenges faced by the international regulatory framework, as posed by the increasing deployment of uncrewed vessels at sea. It is the first publication that offers discussions and opinions reflecting a combined international and comparative (especially, eastern) perspective. The contributors from multiple jurisdictions elaborate on legal implications of the use of uncrewed vessels for military, commercial, scientific-research, and law-enforcement purposes from such diverse angles as the law of the sea, international humanitarian law, the law of war, global shipping regulation, marine environment protection, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence and law.
Autonomous Ships and the Law
Interest in autonomous ships has grown exponentially over the past few years. Whereas a few years ago, the prospect of unmanned and autonomous vessels sailing on the seas was considered unrealistic, the debate now centers on when and in what format and pace the development will take place. Law has a key role to play in this development and legal obstacles are often singled out as principal barriers to the rapid introduction of new technologies in shipping. Within a few years, autonomous ships have turned from a non-issue to one of the main regulatory topics being addressed by the International Maritime Organization. However, the regulatory discussion is still in its infancy, and while many n...
The Law of the Sea
The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982 entered into force on 16 November 1994. Since this date a single binding instrument has regulated the rights and duties of States at sea and regarding the sea. New concepts, such as the exclusive economic zone, archipelagic waters, transit passage through straits, and the International Seabed Area, are now fully recognized. The fifteen member States of the European Union are a significant sample for analyzing the practice of States, or at least that of the Western industrialized States, as regards the law of the sea. They include major and small maritime powers, coastal and land-locked States, States with coasts on the A...
Maritime Autonomous Vehicles and International Law
Maritime autonomous vehicles (MAVs) have the potential to radically alter all uses of maritime space, with technology progressing faster than the law. This book explores the current international legal framework and the options available to regulate maritime security in the face of emerging technologies. MAVs are starting to play a role not only in policing and military security but also for the perpetration of maritime crimes. Through discussing the existing international legal framework for combating maritime security threats, the book will consider the use of MAVs by states for various security purposes and the potential dangers of MAVs in the hands of non-state actors. As the intersectio...
Unconventional Lawmaking in the Law of the Sea
Unconventional Lawmaking in the Law of the Sea explores the ways that actors operating at the international level develop standards of behaviour to regulate varied maritime activities beyond traditional lawmaking. This 'soft law' is now prolific in ocean governance, so it is vital to consider its significance for the law of the sea.
Regulation of Risk
Regulation of Risk provides comprehensive insight into regulation of risk in transport, trade and environment. Contributions provide national, regional and international perspectives on pressing questions: How is risk conceived in light of novel technological deployment, climate change, political upheaval, evolving geopolitics, and the COVID-19 pandemic? What legal tools such as contractual frameworks and governance structures are available to manage the changing landscape of risk? This book highlights the importance of dialogue and collaborative decision-making on risk between policymakers, institutions, societal stakeholders and the scientific community.

Changing Consumer Law in the United Kingdom after Brexit?
Dem britischen Gesetzgeber eröffnen sich durch den weitgehenden Wegfall von Bindung an EU-Recht im Verbraucherrecht neue regulatorische Möglichkeiten. Dieses Werk widmet sich der Frage, ob Normen des bisher von der EU bestimmten Verbraucherkredit- und AGB-Rechts beibehalten oder geändert werden sollten. Eine historische Analyse beantwortet die Frage, inwieweit EU-Recht in der Vergangenheit durch das Vereinigte Königreich gestaltet und rezipiert wurde. Auf Grundlage einer umfassenden rechtsvergleichenden Betrachtung wird zudem analysiert, ob alternative europäische Kooperationsmodelle mehr regulatorischen Freiraum bieten und die (Nicht-) Umsetzung von Verbraucherrecht als Vorbild für neue Regulierung im Vereinigten Königreich dienen könnte.
