For the summer 2008 program, the following courses will be offered in
English:
EUROPEAN UNION LAW (3 Credits)
Co-taught by Matthew Downs and Professors Daniel Garcia Sanjose and Eulalia W. Petit de Gabriel from Universidad de Sevilla
The course provides an overview of the European Union, with a focus on the constitutional, economic, and institutional aspects of the Union. Includes discussions regarding the origin of the European Union; its institutions; the legislative, executive and judicial processes of the European Community; the normative relationship between the European Union legal order and its member states; the economic law aspects of the common market, with special focus on the customs union and the four freedoms (movement of goods, persons, services and capital); and the relationship between the Union and other European and international institutions, such as the Council of Europe. Students become familiar with the primary sources of law involved, such as the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty on the European Community, and major secondary legislation.
INTERNATIONAL AND COMPARATIVE SALES LAW (3 CREDITS)
Co-taught by Scott Norberg, Professors Miguel Angel Adame and Beatriz Campuzano from Universidad de Sevilla
This course entails the study of legal rules governing the international sale of goods, and a comparison of these rules with Spanish and United States domestic law counterparts. The course will focus on the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the UNIDROIT Principles of Commercial Contracts. The comparative law component of the course will examine the related Spanish and U.S. domestic contract law governing sales of goods, including Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Comparing and contrasting the three systems offers the student greater insight into the choices, interests and policies pursued under each respective system of law.
