- Khaldoun Said Saleh Qtaishat
Abstract
In the present article, the author examines one of the most important issues related to the international private law. This issue is how to determine the law applicable to damageable act in the high seas according to the Jordanian international private law. This problem is represented in the way of how the Jordanian legislator, in general, deals with the law applicable to the damageable act in the Jordanian civil code without dealing with the problem of identifying the law applicable to the damageable act in the high seas, which leads the author to ask and answer about how to determine the law applicable to this damageable act.
The jurisprudence of the international private law pays great deal of attention to the problem of the law applicable to damageable act on the high seas, where many opinions try to solve it. The international community also takes notice of this problem as well as the result of this attention the emergence of the Brussels maritime Collision Convention in 1910. It is worth mentioning that Jordanian legislator has addressed the issue of maritime collision in the Jordanian maritime commercial law which contains numerous provisions that match perfectly with the provisions of the Brussels Collision Convention in 1910.
