LAW 838 - INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS 2-3 cr
Description This course considers selected problems in international business and trade, surveying some of the many issues encountered in private international transactions and emphasizing the options available to counsel engaged in the “preventive” practice of law.

Major areas explored include (1) international trading in goods (2) regulation of international trade (3) transfers of technology (4) establishing foreign means of production or distribution through “licensing” or “franchising” operations, and (5) direct investment in foreign means of production or distribution “onshore” in another country, and (6) the resolution of international disputes.
