Learning Outcomes
Welcome to International Corporate Law.
The principal legal vehicle for business in all developed
economies is the limited
liability company. Therefore any study of international business
law must include a
coherent and rigorous examination and analysis of
◾ the legal framework of corporate law adopted in a range of
relevant
jurisdictions;
◾ the problems and issues faced by the law in this field;
◾ the similarities and differences of the choices made and
solutions instituted;
and
◾ the aims, experiences and outcomes of the operation of company
law in
those jurisdictions.
This module is intended to provide such an examination and
analysis at
postgraduate level. It is designed to provide the opportunity to
acquire a deep,
critical and coherent knowledge and understanding of aspects of
substantive and
procedural law in this fundamental area of International
Business Law and to
engage critically in research and investigation, leading to a
wide and deep
understanding of corporate law.
The module will provide an opportunity to participate in
learning activities that
emphasise active and participative education, through the use of
methods leading
to independent, autonomous and self-reliant learning practices
which will enable
students both to acquire and to construct knowledge and critical
understanding of
international corporate law, which will lead to the acquisition
and development of
transferable and marketable skills and knowledge for lifelong
learning and
employment opportunities.
1. Critically analyse the principal features of international
corporate law,
including the major concepts, values, principles and rules, and
the main
institutions and procedures in the UK, the USA and principal
European states.
2. Critically analyse the historical origins, policy
justifications and practical
outcomes of relevant substantive corporate legal rules, and
apply economic,
political and ethical concepts and principles to the law.
