关于我国《海商法》中承运人责任若干问题的探讨

Research on Carrier's Responsibilities in Maritime Code of the PRC

无论是在我国的《海商法》中,还是在海商法学界的理论探讨中,承运人的责任都有许多值得商榷之处。承运人责任的归责原则应为不完全过错责任制,其法律依据为《海商法》第51条和第59条;规定承运人责任期间的第46条第2款纯属多余,应予删除;规定承运人管货义务的第48条前应加上"在本法第46条规定的责任期间内"这一义务履行期间。

Carrier's responsibilities, stipulated in Chinese Maritime Code (CMC) and raised in academic papers, need careful study and further discussion. This paper considers that carrier's responsibility rule is incomplete fault, which is stipulated in Article 51 and Article 59 in CMC. Clause 2 of Article 46 in CMC is redundant and should be cancelled. Responsibility period stipulated in Article 46 of this Code should be added before Article 48 in CMC.
