In this podcast we ask „What is wrong with (maritime) trade?”. It is hosted by Julia Hörnig, Assistant Professor for Commercial Law, as well as the Commercial Law Department at the Erasmus School of Law in Rotterdam – the Capital of Trade and Transport in Europe. In monthly episodes current obstacles of international trade will be discussed. Why do we need paperless trade? Which impact has it on the environment? How does a port authority chase ships that emit more carbon than allowed? Can or should there be such thing like force majeure in times where climate is changing and weather incidents are more severe? Are seafarers sufficiently protected? We will discuss these questions and others form a legal and interdisciplinary point of view. The podcast will allow you to get to know the legal framework as well as practical obstacles, different discipline discovered. Furthermore, you will learn about our ideas and recommendations how these obstacles may be solved.

A product is usually produced, used and discarded. In this Episode we discuss together with Jan Koller of the Fraunhofer Institut in Bayreuth and Gregor Franßen, lawyer specialised in environmental law, which challenges and opportunities circular supply chains provide.
In this episode we combine the customary practice of trade in the past with the current boundaries set be competition law. The question is to what extent should we learn from the past to combat climate change and facilitate sustainable collaborations. Together with Prof. Dr. Maria Fusaro and Mariya Serafimova we discuss the potential solutions.
In this Episode we talk about Corporate Social Responsibility and supply chain due diligence of multinationals. Our guest speaker is Prof. Dr. Scheltema. He explains which potential human right abuses are caused along the entire supply chain – starting with ports and airports, continuing with the financial sector and last but not least all supply chain participants. We discuss potential solutions and ideas.
Seafarer are the invisible heroes and engine of the modern supply chains. Despite their tremendous importance we know very little about them and their challenges at work. In this Episode we discuss with Helene Perfors, port chaplain based in the port of Rotterdam, and Kirsten Boele, Maritime Labour Lawyer at Wybenga Advocaten, which obstacles seafarer face, how the legal framework looks like and what possible solutions for existing issues may look like.
Together with Dr. Katarina Solf, LL. M. (Capetown) we discuss GHG emission from ships, how the legal status quo looks like and which role a gentlemen agreement plays in solving the problem. The Episode links to the discussion of the COP26 which took place from End of October until Mid-November.
In this second episode of this podcast we are looking into the container crisis and its impact on global trade. We will discuss which possible solutions exist – from operational and legal perspective. The guest speakers are Dr. Stefano Fazi from TU Delft (NL) and Prof. Dr. Wouter Verheyen from University of Antwerp (BE).
