Description
This seminar is designed to prepare students to deal with legal issues that arise as a result of the ever-increasing globalization of markets. How is business done across international and national boundaries? Who regulates international trade and through which legal mechanisms? What impact is is NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) going to have on the economics of Canada, Mexico and the United States? How do domestic laws respond to import competition? What is the legal framework that governs licensing, theft and protection of intellectual property; and how are international economic disputes settled? We will also engage in an exercise in international commercial arbitration. These are some of the areas we will examine during the course of the semester. The only prerequisite for enrollment in this course is that you come with determination to work hard to understand how the economic forces unleashed by multinational business corporations are likely to change our world.
