IUS/02 - COMPARATIVE PRIVATE LAW

Period

2° Periodo di lezioni - aprile/maggio 2015, 2° Periodo di lezioni - febbraio/marzo 2015

Learning outcomes

This course aims at providing students with skills useful for a critical analysis of legal solutions adopted in different legal systems and in supranational uniform law instruments. This goal is pursued by introducing students to the use of comparative law and economic analysis of law, which are applied, in particular, to issues dealing with contract and business law.

Program

The course is divided into two separate teaching units.
Teaching Unit I (18 hours, 3 credits): Comparative Legal Systems and Methodology of Comparative Law.
During the first Teaching Unit we will identify the object of comparative law and will focus on methodologies and goals of comparative law. Special attention will be paid to the law & economics approach to comparative law.
Teaching Unit II (36 hours, 6 credits): Comparative Law of Obligations
During the second Teaching Unit the analytical skills based on comparative law and economic analysis of law will be applied to review, from a comparative perspective, selected topics of the law of obligations, with emphasis on the law of international business transaction. The different solutions adopted in civil law and common law jurisdictions will be compared, among themselves and with those adopted in supranational uniform law instrument at the European and international level.

Examination Methods

The final exam will be based on an oral discussion of the issues dealt with during the course and aims at verifying the level of understanding of those issues.
