Abstract/Description:

This chapter concludes, highlighting the significant findings of the book. It offers several alternatives for the future of the law on carriage of goods. Of these, one involves examination of the virtues of international conventions (whether the Rotterdam Rules or some other convention adopted in the future) while others include partial mandatory and nonmandatory approaches to uniformity, making an analogy with the Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment, 2001. In this chapter some proposals are offered which could be successful in terms of their acceptance by the traditional maritime states as well as the emerging maritime powers.
