BULAW3703 LAW IN AN INTERNATIONAL & ELECTRONIC MARKET
This course will introduce students to the broad legal environment in which cross border international or electronic business and managerial activity takes place and will contrast that with the domestic legal environment. In particular, the course will address the problems of jurisdiction, sovereignty, and international regulation which arise in relation to cross border electronic and conventional international commercial activity. The course will address the challenges which electronic and international business activity pose for existing legal frameworks. This will be developed by focusing on selected themes which may include an analysis of how managers might address issues such as privacy, revenue (or taxation) and competitive and efficient marketing activity. Finally the course will focus on the demand for adequate protection of business assets and property within an electronic or international environment. A selected focus may include an evaluation of developments relating to contracts in the international or ecommerce market - business to business (B2B) and business to consumer, or developments in intellectual property rights, or laws relating to the management and resolution of disputes within the electronic or international environment.
