1、北方工业大学本科生毕业论文 论海牙规则汉堡规则之比较及鹿特丹规则中承运人的适航义务兼评海商法第47条学号:07102040107 姓名:崔岩学院:文法学院 专业:法学指导老师:陈兰兰 成绩:完成时间:2010年6月 论鹿特丹规则中承运人的适航义务兼评海商法第47条【摘要】19世纪末20世纪初,海运事业蓬勃发展,英国成为“海运大国”,美国则是“货主大国”。由于当时契约自由的影响,英国提单中多达六七十项免责条款,这大大影响了货主的利益,为保护美方利益,美国制定了哈特法,率先规定了承运人的最低义务,即适航义务。之后,在两大国的相互斗争与妥协中,海牙规则应运而生,规定了承运人的适航义务。所以,承运人适
2、航义务从一开始就肩负着平衡各方利益的使命。随着海运事业的发展,海牙维斯比规则、汉堡规则又近一步规定承运人的适航义务。在2008年12月11日联合国大会第63届会议上,鹿特丹规则的通过,对该问题有了不同于以往所有公约的突破性改变,即将承运人适航义务首次规定为一项持续性、全程化的义务,这一变化体现了国际海上货物运输立法上逐渐加重承运人义务与责任的发展趋势以及平衡船货双方利益的客观要求,同时,也对国际海上货物运输的相关方面带来一系列的影响。结合我国是海运大国但非海运强国的现实,本文通过对传统承运人适航义务的内容、发展以及改变后意义的具体分析,提出我国海商法第47条的不足,并且提出立法建议。 论文分为
