Learning objectives

The course aims at providing students with an in-depth knowledge of the most common special contracts (including the atypical ones) – regulated in the civil code and other laws – that are relevant to the contemporary business, in the context of domestic and international trade. Students shall acquire the ability to solve the legal issues examined during the course and to autonomously formulate in-depth judgements and arguments, both in written and oral form, as well as to critically adapt the solutions developed to different contexts.

Prerequisites and basic notions

A prerequisite for attending the course is the knowledge of the basic notions of private with special regard to contract and obligation law.

Program

The teaching aims to offer students the opportunity for further consolidation and deepening of private law topics (in particular, contract law) through the analysis of practical cases.
The course is part of the "Business and Global Markets" curriculum and focuses on some of the "typical" contracts that are most common in practice.
Case analysis aims to stimulate discussion on important and controversial aspects of legal practice and allows students to engage with the constant debate between legal science and case law
