Will the International Community Let it Happen?

Intermodal transport creates many difficulties insofar as the handling of liability claims is concerned. Different conventions have been established in an attempt to solve these problems; and a brief review of these is presented. Also examined is an attempt by various countries to establish an international convention which would apply whenever goods are carried between two or more countries by two or modes of transportation. Although many difficulties have arisen with this convention, it is hoped that they may be ironed out and that the resolution be adopted.
