  • Abstract:
  • Global trade and commerce have been shaped for centuries by the development of maritime law, which has been a pillar in the growth and control of international shipping. This essay explores the development of maritime law throughout history, starting with antiquated treaties like the Laws of Oleron and the Rhodian Sea Law and ending with more recent agreements like UNCLOS and MARPOL. It looks at how important international organizations were in creating and implementing these laws, especially the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Important maritime law treaties are highlighted in the research along with their important effects on environmental protection, safety, and shipping practices. The study also discusses current issues facing the marine sector, such as risks to maritime security, environmental problems, and technological improvements. This article demonstrates how the practical consequences and legal reactions to historical events, such the Exxon Valdez oil spill and the MV Ever Given Suez Canal blockage, have affected contemporary maritime law by in-depth case studies of these events.
