Aucune contribution pédagogique associé à ce cours pour ce programme.Descriptif
The economic globalization has led to an emergence of an increasingly complex and sophisticated framework of trade-related rights and duties. The ambition of the course is to address from a dynamic perspective a range of complex issues around which international and European economic and trade relations revolve. This course will provide a general overview of the international economic order governed by the three major economic pillars: the World Trade Organization, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. Special attention will be given to the world trade law. Students will be introduced to the WTO dispute settlement system, leading cases from the WTO jurisprudence and recent controversies in international trade. In order to provide a clearer picture of the complexity of international trade relations that affect both private and public actors, this course will discuss specificities of regulatory cultures in different countries (European Union, United-States) in relation to environmental, health and safety standards (sanitary and phytosanitary standards, technical barriers to trade, sustainable development and trade). This course will demonstrate how diverging perceptions of risks and different regulatory traditions determined by specific historical, social and economic contexts may affect international trade (chemicals, drugs, cosmetics, new technologies). Furthermore, since international agreements are products of complex negotiation processes, students will be introduced to mains concepts, tactics and strategies of multilateral negotiations in a multicultural context. Finally, this course will question how and to what extent the current context has profoundly challenged the established economic order. This course is designed for students who plan to work for enterprises, government agencies, business lobbies, the European Union institutions and international organizations, and who need a comprehensive and practice-oriented understanding of economic and business aspects of international economic law.Organisation pédagogique
