An Ocean Between Us: The Implications Of Inconsistencies Between The Navigational Laws Of Coastal Arctic Council Nations And The United Nations Convention On The Law Of The Sea For Arctic Navigation, Laura C. Williams

These appraisal arbitrageurs have fueled the ongoing resurgence of appraisal litigation, …

The unclear status of what role the function of an entity should play in determining its status under the Eleventh …
