Short description:
This book identifies legal gaps in regulating autonomous vessels. Based on criteria for the future legal framework for autonomous vessels, it compares and evaluates international, regional, and European; binding and non-binding legal instruments that could provide an appropriate future legal framework.
MoreLong description:
This book adds to the legal research on autonomous vessels and proposes a combined international-supranational regulation concept, introducing the reader to the most urgent international legal aspects with respect to autonomous ships. The future legal framework must be technology-neutral and reliable, and it has to be in place as soon as possible to integrate autonomous ships into the existing international legal framework. The book provides the reader with a comprehensive and innovative comparison of different regulatory approaches, including regional and European instruments. The effect of non-binding instruments is analyzed based on rational choice theory.
