The Historical Aspect of the Development of Legal Regulation of Contractual Relations Related to Maritime Transport
Annotation
The article contains the results of the analysis of the historical development of maritime transport and the evolution of maritime law from the ancient world to the present day. It also explores the legal nature of contracts related to maritime transport. It examines various sources of legal regulation of these contracts, as well as issues of dividing maritime transport into tramp and liner, systematization and classification of contracts used in both types of transport. It is noted that the main problem of international maritime law is the lack of unification of legal norms. Domestic maritime law, historically based on Western models and international standards, does not fully regulate classification issues. The lack of a clear definition of the legal nature of contracts in international and national law leads to ambiguity in the application of legal norms, which is relevant to both the theory and practice of maritime law.
