Research Proposal: Arbitration In Maritime Insurance

Aim
The main aim and objective of the research is to evaluate the judicial measures in terms of statistical representation in the context of arbitration in maritime insurance. It would be determined whether in a case of arbitration the Petitioner or the Defendant holds the stronger ground statistically.
Rationale

The importance of this study lies in the fact that if the assumption is established that in a case of arbitration in maritime insurance any one party enjoys the stronger ground, being a Petitioner or the Defendant, just from being at the position then strategies could be developed in a specific manner. This pre notion strategy would help the parties prepare well in advance and thus justice would be well achieved.
Methodology
Quantitative methods would be more emphasised upon. However, while collecting the interviews of lawyers, Juries, Petitioners and Defendants qualitative methods would be used. (Kar, 229)
Resources
A huge number of materials would be needed as a supporting source to the research. For the purpose it is important to gain access to major libraries. The most important texts in this context would be Berkowitz’s Maritime Insurance and Man, Border’s Insurance: Fire of the Mind and Deb’s Introduction to South African Maritime Insurance: Technology for Mankind. All three of these books are dependable and informative means of supporting and constructing the thesis as they provide a huge amount of data in the parameters of arbitration in maritime insurance. Dev’s Evaluation of Arbitrations, Dos’ Future of Thought Process in Maritime History and Dollard’s Modern Maritime Policies in UK: Looks into Tomorrow are all recent piece of work that details various arbitrations in maritime insurance thus are very important for the research. The same is true for Fletcher’s Maritime Judiciary: Beliefs and Knowledge; Believing and Knowing and
Kar’s History of Legal Applications and Data but they deal with maritime judicial system as a whole. However, insurance is well dealt in these two books thus the arbitration in maritime insurance related chapters provides substantial resources. King’s Legal Fitness Today and Lamb’s Cult to Culture: The Development of Civilization on the Strategic Strata are two books that are invaluable in this context because they provide a huge amount of date on the issue of arbitration in maritime insurance along with in depth analysis of circumstances. Read also research proposal on Forensic Accounting
