ACCR BSET 390 - Doing Business Euro:European Trade Polcy

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

The course explores institutional and legal aspects of doing business in the European Union. Particularly emphasized are: the basic structures of the EU, the impact and implementation of EU directives and regulations, EU law and various legal systems in Europe, and the resolution of business disputes. The course will focus on: 1) structure of European Union Institutions; 2) impact of EU Directives and Regulations; 3) implementation in Member States and differences in legal systems; 4) and, resolution of Business Disputes. The course offers a fresh, Rome-specific approach to the practical questions and the broader issues involved in setting up and conducting a business in Europe. The seminar format includes the creation of a model firm and involves both collaboration and independent learning (especially in the individual projects). By over-seeing the interests of a fictitious company students develop a new way of thinking, with targeted research activity. The emphasis is on Italy, but not to the exclusion of variations across Europe. This course is designed to grapple directly with American/EU differences, examining the nuances of one very fertile context rather than flattening them out, as may be the case in comparable courses in the U.S. about international business.
