Course description

How nations act domestically and internationally is regularly influenced, and sometimes dramatically influenced, by international standards. International rules governing issues like human rights, trade, climate or the use of force in resolving disputes between countries affect the day-to-day lives of people and communities all over the world. This course is designed to provide non-lawyers with basic knowledge about the different forms that international standards can take, about how those standards are made and enforced, and above all how and why they have impacts (when they do) on what countries actually do at home and abroad.

Please note that this is not an online course, participation in class is required.

Course description

The European Union is one of the world's largest and most important economies. Those interested in doing business with the EU member states must know the rules and the practice of relevant laws. This introductory course deals with the subject from several perspectives, among others social and economic. It will provide students with the fundamental tools they need in order to be able to do business with the EU, whether they live in Europe or elsewhere. Students will gain a broad understanding of both the practical and theoretical aspects of European business law, regardless if they have prior legal knowledge or not. We will focus on topics central to business law and to economis analysis, such as free movement law, competition law, environmental law, trade law and state aids law. Students will also gain a general understanding of the European Union's legal system and explore the basic constitutional foundations of the EU.

Please note that this is not an online course, participation in class is required.
