ENThe transport in a broad sense must be understood as the unit of the roads, railways or other structures and environment, where the transportation of passengers and/or goods is available. This causes that the transport is one of the strategic and priority area of the policy and activities in the Republic of Lithuania and European Union as well. Exactly the transport as the area of the economic activity directly affects not only the other economic sectors or whole society, but also reflects the general economic level of the state. The regulation of the social relations is extremely important in the transport area according to the extent, diversity and importance of the transport system to the interests of the state and society. For this reason the transport law is divided into the different sub-branches or parts, which regulate processes of the transport sector narrower. In this book the author analyses and describes the system of the social relations regulated by the law of carriage as one of the sub-branch of the transport law as well as individual problematic aspects of the law of carriage.
