China (the Mainland of PRC) trades with other states in trillions of USD every year, and about 95% of the cargoes are carried by ocean-going ships calling at hundreds of Chinese ports each singe day. Due to the enormous trade volume and shipping activities, foreign ships, companies and professionals are often caught in the Chinese maritime law and court. The foreign parties involved in Chinese litigation or dispute resolution and their lawyers are more and more enthusiastic to study Chinese maritime cases in order to deal with their own cases properly or, if possible, predicate the potential risks and avoid the disputes outright. However, to date, no Chinese series casebook has ever been published. Now, for the first time, the authors offer this series casebook of delicately selected Chinese maritime judgments. Each year, the book selects a number of leading, innovative and influential Chinese maritime judgments and presents full English translation of them, together with summary, to the readers so that they can have insights of how the Chinese maritime judges interpret, apply and develop Chinese maritime law in practice. The book will benefit the worldwide students, academics, practitioners and industrial people who may be engaged in international trade, shipping, insurance and other transactions concerning China. The book will also indemnify to certain extent the situation that there is lack of authoritative sources available to foreign personnel to look into how Chinese justice system functions and grows in real life.
