<p>In this module you will examine the legal framework which governs international business transactions. The syllabus will be divided into two main parts: the law applicable to the international sales; and the law which governs the international carriage of goods, with particular emphasis on the international carriage of goods by sea. You will have the opportunity to evaluate the historical development and evolution of the legal principles which govern international business transactions through time, from the law merchant to special trade terms. You will also be able to reflect on the transition from common law governance to the modern era of codification, as well as the impact of new technologies and globalisation on the current legal framework governing international business transactions.</p>
