Effect of law on seat belt use and casualty reduction; some comparison with other states and nations.

In this book various perspectives on fundamental rights in the fields of public and private international law are innovatively covered. Published on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the T.M.C. Asser Instituut in The Hague, the collection reflects the breadth and scope of the Institute's research activities in the fields of public international law, EU law, private international law and international and European sports law. It does so by shedding more light on topical issues - such as drone warfare, the fight against terrorism, the international trade environment nexus and forced arbitration - that can be related to the theme of fundamental rights, which runs through all these four areas of research. Points of divergence and areas of common ground are uncovered in contributions from both staff members and distinguished external authors, having long-standing academic relations with the Institute. The Editors of this book are all staff members of the T.M.C. Asser Instituut, each of them representing one of the areas of research the Institute covers.

"An accident happened in the North Sea and I need a complete overview of the rules regarding oil pollution at sea. I need to draft a legal advice for a financial institution on paperless trade finance. I wish to have the legal rules applicable to copyrights and trademarks at hand during my client's meeting. As a student, I wish to have one compendium in which the most important materials and legal provisions on (International) Commercial Law are gathered. For these and many more examples, one can rely on the Materials on Commercial Law. Indeed, this reader bundles in four volumes the most important materials - even those published by soft-law organisations and not always easy to access by the public - in the eclectic field of commercial law. The reader is user-friendly via its index at the beginning of each Volume. The legislative texts are categorized per legal domain."--
