This course focuses upon economic analysis of government intervention in markets, including several forms of regulation. It covers economic (or public interest) theories of regulation as well as private interest perspectives. In addition, the course considers cost-benefit analysis and behavioural perspectives on regulation. The assessment will be composed of a ‘short-answer-question’ written exam worth 75% of the grade and a group presentation worth 25% of the grade. the exam will be a take-home exam of three hours duration. The group presentation will take place during the final class and will concern a case study on the regulation of a particular area. |

The course introduces game-theoretical approaches to legal analysis. No previous knowledge in game-theory is needed. Yet, in the end, the students will have been acquainted with some core concepts of cooperative and non-cooperative game-theory through their application to a variety of legal issues in several domains of law. The course will follow this order.
- Criminal deterrence (credible threats in extensive form games)
- The dynamics of marriage and divorce (Gale-Shapley matching algorithm / Nash bargaining model)
- Corruption and the limits of asymmetric criminalization (extensive form games, subgame perfect equilibrium)
- Governmental accountability and the optimal level of public transparency (principal-agent models)
- Separation of powers and the constitutional non-delegation principle (power indices)
- Linguistic rights in multilingual societies (conversation games).

The course will provide an overview of the European patent system and will focus on exciting aspects that have promoted, troubled or facilitated the system as a whole during the past decades. During the course we will discuss the patentability of biotech inventions, AI and pharmaceutical products while we will also debate the role exclusive rights as those granted by the patent system, may play in a global context. Finally we will have the opportunity to learn more about the recent changes brought by the Unitary Patent System and the Unitary Patent Court. |

This course introduces students to different approaches to criminal law theory. First, we discuss theories of criminalization such as the German legal goods theory (“Rechtsgutstheorie”) and the harm principle. Second, we cover important contemporary concepts in criminal law theory such as ‘consent’ in sexual offense law. Lastly, we look at philosophical perspectives on the justification of legal punishment, compare different approaches to sentencing theory and practice, and discuss alternative proposals to legal punishment such as restorative justice.

Since its inception over seventy years ago, the European Union (EU) has emerged as one of the leading trading blocs in the world. Originally created around an economic agenda, the Union has since morphed from an intergovernmental organisation into something quite different and distinct.
This course examines this transformation and the forces behind it, exploring the institutions of the Union and the functioning of the European judicial system. Also, it investigates several of the foundational policies that the heart of the EU, and considers their role in the EU’s transformation.
This course finishes with an exploration of the four freedoms and drills down into the free movement of goods and its operation within the global trade system.

Semester 2
The lecture will focus on important research on the role of civil law for economic development in Western Europe, where groundbreaking legal innovations in the late Middle Ages, which have been termed a "legal revolution" (Berman) or a "big bang" (Gordley), could be consolidated for the long term and contributed to the unprecedented economic rise of Western Europe. It also includes a discussion of the much-criticized argument that common law is more growth-oriented than civil law. The lecture continues with recent research on property, contract and civil liability. This includes liability for environmental damage, for pure economic loss in tort, after the the "Deep Water Accident" in the Caribbean (2010). It includes the discussion on the expansion of management without mandate, on new forms of property, and on the taming of the internet giants through new regulatory practices, after civil norms on abuse of dominant market position proved to be inappropriate. It also includes the debate on pre-contractual disclosure rules and on the basis of contract and unenforceability in contract law. And it shows how behavioral research has challenged conventional wisdom in law and economics. Basic knowledge of economics is welcome but not necessary. The lecture will be based partly on the second edition of the book "The Economic Analysis of Civil Law" by Schäfer and Ott (2022) and partly on recent literature which will be distributed before the course starts.

The European Data Law course will focus on current issues of data regulation and data use, particularly in the context of EU law. The subject of interest will be the regulation of personal data and the European Data Strategy and the resulting legal initiatives such as the Data Governance Act, the Data Act and European Data Spaces. The regulation of AI will not be left out. The aim of the course is to introduce the basic concepts of data regulation with a focus on both the theoretical level of legislation and the practical level of data use in specific areas (e.g. energy sector, health sector).

The course concerns recent development in EU law, resulting from the new central concern to combat climate change, laid down by the EU Green Deal (2019). In this context, the EU Commission committed to put climate change law at the core of all EU policies, including trade policy and corporate law, and to make sure that climate change reforms take into account the most vulnerable categories of citizens (fair transition). Legislation quickly followed, coined “Delivering the Green Deal”.
Our purpose in this course is to focus on measures concerning international trade, and the behavior of international business actors, in particular corporations. Unilateral EU acts (EU legislation in the domains of Energy, Deforestation, and Forced labour) will be considered, together with EU Trade agreements (esp. their environment and social provisions). Regulation of corporate conducts, through Sustainable reporting and Sustainable due diligence will also be an important section of the course.
This course intends to engage students in discussions on how to reconcile international trade, climate change mitigation, and social justice, taking EU law as a starting point for reflection.
