This course enables students to deepen their understanding of Contract Law. The Comparative Law approach and content will enable students to identify similarities and differences, particularly in terminology, between different civil law and common law systems. By the end of the course, students will also be able to recognize the key features of European Contract Law, with a particular focus on Consumer Law, especially in the context of the Digital Single Market. Through the analysis of supranational sources and both national and European case law, students will acquire and further develop autonomy and critical thinking in legal scholarship and reasoning.
