| Formål: |
The course is intended for both Danish and non-Danish students.
The objective of the course is to provide the students with a thorough understanding of rules in relation to carriage of goods by sea and road (CMR).
Transport law in general is largely based on international conventions, which to a varying degree have been ratified and incorporated into the national legal systems of the signatory countries. Many contract forms used are standard documents.
The objective of the course is not to pin-point differences between one country and the other, but rather to assist the students in getting an overall view of international transport law, particularly in relation to carriage of goods by the different modes of transport mentioned above. As transport law - and particularly the rules in relation to carriage of goods - would not exist save for the existence of the international sale of goods, the course will also aim at introducing the students to basic rules of international sale of goods and the documents related thereto (i.a. Letters of Credit).
It is the general aim of the course to be a practical, however, thorough introduction to international transport law, which the students at a later stage can use as a platform for further in-depth studies of the rules relating to the individual forms of transport applicable in their home countries.
