Bøger af John N. K. Mansell

This unique book charts the regulation of British ships throughout the nineteenth century, from no regulation in 1800, to enactment in the 1890s, of a model of customary and national maritime law adopted by many States.

This history covers the development of tonnage, ship registration, classification societies, national and international law for flag State responsibility as well as the rise of non-traditional flag States and classification societies over the past 50 years.
