Università Roma Tre

The course aims to offer an original perspective on carriage-by-sea contracts. The examples that will be discussed extensively in this course demonstrate the application of complex legal relationships and liabilities to significant commercial risk. These examples of applied Roman law are more than historical curiosities; rather, they are important contributions to the foundation of modem maritime law. By the end of the module, it is expected that students should have the knowledge and understanding to formulate, in an autonomous and critical way, judgements and elaborated arguments on the main legal questions dealt with in class.
