Learning outcomes
This is an introductory course – taught in English – on the legal aspects of the digital economy. The focus will be on EU law and policies governing the economic activities carried out by and through digital platforms such as Google, Amazon, Airbnb, Facebook, etc. Students will learn the main economic and legal characteristics of the digital economy, by understanding the most important aspects of EU law and policies relevant to the digital economy, regulating individual sectors (eg. transport, accommodation, finance) and across-the-board legal issues (eg market access, competition, contract formation, data, and consumer protection). Students will learn how to look at the digital world from a legal point of view; they will be able to identify the main technical and economic developments in this area and understand how such developments are being addressed by the EU legal system and how they are affecting and changing the application of traditional legal principles and rules.
Program
The course will cover some of the main EU legislative initiatives in the field of Digital Economy. Among the legislative acts that will be analysed are: the directive on electronic commerce 2000/31, the services directive 2006/123, the E-money directive 2009/110, the consumer rights directive 2011/83, the directive on payment 2015/2366, the Regulation for the protection of personal data 2016/679, Competition law.
The course is 36 hours long (6 CFU) and will be held in English with the support of slides and study materials previously indicated (eg legislation and jurisprudence of the European Union). The course will be partly taught in person (5 CFU, 30 hours) and partly remotely, following flipped learning and group-based learning methodologies (1 CFU, 6 hours). Students will be invited to participate in the discussion on the various topics introduced and explained by the teacher, also based on the previous reading of study materials.
The in-person activities are dedicated to the following topics:
What is the Digital Economy? What definition does the EU legal system give?
• The main market sectors affected
• What strategies and methods is the EU adopting or should it adopt to regulate the digital economy?
• The relevance of EU law on access to the online market
• Consumer protection in the digital economy
• The role and legal protection of data in the digital economy
• EU competition law in the digital economy and the protection of smaller companies
• Finance, e-money and payment systems
The remote activities are dedicated to group work for the solution of practical cases relating to legal issues such as:
• the compatibility of national regulations with the EU regulations on digital exchanges
• the liability of online intermediaries towards third parties for illegal activities carried out by users of digital platforms
