商品簡介
Intended not as a handbook for oil pollution issues, this book instead examines in detail "...the most characteristic features of the civil liability regime for oil pollution damage, such as the strict liability, the channeling of liability, limitation of liability, compulsory insurance and alternative financial compensation mechanism." With this focus, Hui (PhD, 2011, Erasmus U. of Rotterdam, The Netherlands) offers in-depth analysis from a legal and economics perspective and discussion of whether the system is designed in the public interest or as a means of distributing risks among the parties.
