Pomorska i unutarnja plovidba – povezani sustav odgovornosti u prijevozu stvari u europskim okvirima
Maritime and inland navigation – an interrelated system of responsibility and the carriage of goods within the European framework

Summary/Abstract: There have been many attempts in the past to regulate the carriage of goods by inland navigation through conventions, even before the final Convention on the contract for the carriage of goods by inland waterways was finally voted in 2000 (Budapest Convention). This Convention, which is in line with the European Union principles, has been incorporated into the Croatian legal system. Compared to maritime provisions, the convention is distinctive, to a large extent independent, even though in other areas the mutatis mutandis principle is still valid for the Croatian Maritime Code. It is precisely this connection with maritime law principles that offers the comparison of the Budapest Convention with appropriate conventions on maritime transport (as well as other branches of transportation) intriguing. There is also the unavoidable question of whether the Budapest Convention with its compromises can influence the international maritime regulation.
