EVOLUŢIA ISTORICĂ A DREPTULUI INTERNAŢIONAL MARITIM.

In this study the author presents the focus points regarding the evolution of maritime laws and the most important aspects in respect of free shipping and trading between states. Therefore, there are examined legal aspects concerning the status of all the motorways of the sea, the natural straits, the ship registration and the ownership of the vessel. The Geneva Convention on the High Seas of 1958, the United Nation Convention on the Law of the Sea of 1982 and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development are essential and represent the basis for today's maritime laws and regulations.
