  • United Nations Commission on International Trade Law(hereinafter"UNCITRAL"), the core legal body of the United Nations system in the field of international trade law, is currently in the process of preparing a draft instrument on the international carriage of goods. In order to facilitate and prompt for new draft instrument, Working Group Ⅲ was established under the auspicious of UNCITRAL in 2002. Working Group, which was composed of all member countries of UNCITRAL, considered the text of preliminary draft instrument on the carriage of goods by sea. According to the Working Group's report, this new convention deals with issues relating to the international ocean carriage of goods such as the scope of application, the period of responsibility of the carrier, liability of the carrier, obligations of the shipper and transport documents including electronic records. In the course of the second reading, however, there are lots of outstanding issues to deliberate and consider for formulating new version of the ocean cargo liability convention. One of the substantial issues is the snail's pace of progress in last sessions. Therefore legal adviser and industry representatives assume the next UNCITRAL meeting, in Vienna, Nov. 29-Dec. 10, would be more critical to complete the convention.

  • The purpose of this paper is to review the text of national legislation relating to the carrier's liability in respect of the carriage of passengers, baggage and cargo by air in major states such as United Kingdom, Germany, France, Canada, Russia and China, and to compare the air carrier's liability under the national legislations of above states with them under the Warsaw System relating to the international carriage by air. Also this paper reviews the text of the draft legislation relating to the carrier's liability in respect of the carriage by air in Korea. The Warsaw Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage was adopted in 1929. In 1999, the ICAO adopted the Montreal Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules for International Carriage by Air vastly modernizing the unification of private air law. The Montreal Convention replaced the instruments of the “Warsaw System”, and came into force on 4 November 2003. The Montreal Convention is not only an international convention. It has also exercised a considerable influence on national legislation. A the Convention, or certain of its principles, with the object of regulating their national air transport. The main feature of the liability regime of the air carrier under the Montreal Convention is the two-tier liability system for death or injury of the passenger with strict liability up to 100,000 SDR and presumptive liability with a reversed burden of proof without any limit above that threshold. The principles of the liability of the air carrier under the Montreal Convention have been adopted into national legislations by the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Canada, Russia and China. Now the Ministry of Justice of Korea is proceeding to make a new national legislation relating to the liability of the air carrier in respect of the carriage by air. The draft legislation of the Part VI the Carriage by Air of the Commercial Code of Korea has adopted the main principles of the liability of the air carrier under the Montreal Convention. In conclusion, the national legislation relating to the liability of the air carrier in Korea will contribute to settle efficiently the dispute on the carrier's liability in respect of the carriage of passengers, baggage and cargo by air.

  • In accordance with the establishment of 200 nautical miles EEZ regime as a customary international law since the mid - 1980s, the area of global high seas became reduced relatively. On the other hand, the importance of high seas fishing ground became serious for the distant-water fishing states like Korea. But it can be expected that international dispute on the jurisdictional problem of the fishing vessels engaging high sea fishery will occur frequently owing to institutional inertia of the UNLOS Convention on this matter. "The Draft Agreement to Promote Compliance with International Conservation and Management Measures by Fishing Vessels on the High Seas" as an international code of conduct for responsible fishing which was adopted by FAO in 1993 is providing the more consolidating and definiting rules for jurisdictional responsibility of flag states to make completion the loophole of the UNLOS Convention. As a precondition for the effective control and enforcement of activities of the fishing vessels engaging high sea fishery, the Draft Agreement is providing some articles allowing the flag states to hold the rights of granting nationality, fishery permission, fishery supervision and control with punishment for the fishing vessels entitled to fly their own flag. Accordingly it can be evaluated that this Draft Agreement does not deviate on the whole from the traditional practice and the basic legal principle of the UNLOS Convention.

  • 우리나라는 항공운송에 관한 사법적 법률관계를 규율하는 법률이 제정되어 있지 아니하므로 항공화물운송을 둘러싼 분쟁을 오로지 항공사의 항공운송약관에 의해 해결을 시도하여 왔다. 그러나 국내항공운송에서 화주의 권익을 보호하고 운송계약당사자의 권리의무를 명확히 하기 위해 항공운송에 관한 법률을 제정할 필요가 있는 것이다. 국제항공운송에 있어서는 1999년에 채택된 몬트리올 협약을 우리나라가 가입하여 2007년 12월 29일 발효되어 있으므로 국제항공운송에 관련된 분쟁에는 몬트리올 협약이 적용된다. 법무부는 2008년에 상법 제6편 항공운송편 제정안을 마련하여 공청회를 거쳐 2008년 12월 31일 국회 제출되어 현재 심의 중에 있다. 상법 항공운송편 제정안은 기본적으로 몬트리올 협약을 근간으로 하고 있으며, 상법의 육상운송 및 해상운송의 제 규정과 위배됨이 없도록 제정목표를 두어 총 3개장 45개 조문 및 부칙으로 구성되어 있다. 상법 항공운송편 제정안가운데 특히 항공화물운송인의 책임에 관한 규정으로 운송인의 책임원인, 비계약적 청구에 적용, 운송인의 책임한도, 운송인의 책임감면, 운송인의 책임소멸, 운송물의 멸실 훼손 등의 통지, 운송인의 사용인.대리인의 책임, 실제 운송인의 책임, 순차운송인의 책임 등에 관한 규정이 있다. 이와 같은 항공화물운송인의 책임에 관한 규정가운데 쟁점사항으로는, 항공운송편 제정안 제913조제1항 단서의 운송인의 면책사유로 몬트리올 협약 제18조제2항에 규정되어 있지 아니한 폭동, 내란, 검역 등이 추가되어 있다는 점, 상법 제121조 및 제147조는 육상운송 및 육상운송주선의 경우 운송인의 책임에 관하여 악의의 경우를 제외하고 1년의 단기 제척기간을 규정하고 있는 반면에 항공운송편 제정안 제902조는 항공운송인의 악의가 있든 없든 2년의 제척기간을 규정하고 있는 점, 항공운송편 제정안 제899조 제3항은 화물운송의 경우 항공운송인의 사용인이나 대리인에게 고의 또는 인식있는 무모한 작위 또는 부작위가 있는 경우에도 사용인이나 대리인인 운송인이 주장할 수 있는 항변과 책임제한을 원용할 수 있다는 점들을 들수 있다. 결론적으로, 상법 항공운송편 제정안에는 당사자 간의 분쟁해결 및 운송인의 책임분산에 관한 규정이 있지 아니한 바 몬트리올 협약 제34조의 중재 및 제50조의 보험에 관한 규정을 수용하여 포함시키는 것이 바람직할 것이다. 또한 상법 항공운송편 제정안이 조속히 국회에서 통과되어 시행될 경우 운송인 등과 화주 간에 화물의 멸실, 훼손 또는 연착으로 인한 손해배상책임에 관한 분쟁을 원활하고 공평하게 해결하는데 기여할 것이다.

  • Most compensation issues are regulated under domestic law where third parties are suffered damage from crushes of aircrafts or their falling objects. This issue was internationally recognized. A Convention to unify the rules of the law concerning damage caused by aircraft to the third parties on the surface was signed in May, 1933( the 1933 Rome Convention) and it became effective in 1942. Later, modernization was carried out through the 1952 Rome Convention and the 1978 Montreal Protocol amending the 1933 Rome Convention. Ratifying States either to the Convention or to the Protocol is not as many as those States to the Warsaw Convention concerning air-transport. In 1999, which was a turning point of changes of centuries from the twentieth century to the twenty first century, the Montreal Convention was passed to modernize the Warsaw Convention, and was quickly widespread. On September 11 2001, the coordinated simultaneous terror attacks occurred. In the circumstances, the issue modernizing the Rome Convention came up. Thus, workout under the initiatives of the Legal Committee of the ICAO is under operation to adopt new Rome Convention. In Japan, a study on the ICAO Draft Convention was operated by which a working study group composed of experts from academy, industry and government was set up. This article, being based on that study, clarifies issues and gives future perspectives. This article presents author's individual views.

  • 우리나라는 국적외항상선의 수가 2006년 1월 기준으로 546척, 13,716,733 G/T에 이르는 세계 제 8위의 해운강국이다. 선박은 건조시로부터 25년에서 30년 정도 운항하면 그 수명을 다해 다른 용도로 변경되어야한다. 수명이 다 된 노후 선박의 처리방법으로 재활용이 가장 나은 방범으로 대두되고 있으나 여러 가지 환경적 규제와 노동 규제에 의해 현재 선진국에서는 거의 이루어지지가 않고 비교적 법규제가 느슨한 개발도상국으로 옮겨지고 있으나 국제적으로는 선박도 하나의 폐기물로 보고 국가간 이동을 금지하는 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 선박해체산업현장의 열악한 작업환경과 환경피해의 심각성 해결을 위한 국제적인 동향을 알아보고자 하였나. IMO, UNEP, ILO 에서는 선박의 해체 작업에 참여하는 작업자들의 건강과 안전을 보호 하고 환경오염을 방지하기 위하여 선박내의 유해물질을 목록화하여 유해물질을 관리하도록 하는 방안을 마련하고 있으며, 선박의 재활용과 관련한 바젤협약, IMO Guideline, ILO Guideline, IMO Convention Draft를 통해 세계적인 추세를 알아보았다.
