This book is an examination of how the law understands human identity and the whole notion of 'human being'. On these two notions the law, usually unconsciously, builds the superstructure of 'human rights'.

This is the first book to offer a comprehensive overview of modern seaports from a legal perspective.

It is a first, necessary step toward giving seaports the status they rightfully deserve in legal studies.
Despite centuries of international law studies and...
