Principles of corporate insolvency (6 points)

(LAW)

Leader: T.B.A.

Offered:
Not offered in 2004.

Synopsis:

Objectives: The course will give students an opportunity not only to study insolvency law as a subject in its own right, but also to explore in depth aspects of property law, restitution equity and contract where a situation of insolvency presents problems of particular difficulty, both conceptual and practical. The policy and social implications of insolvency and insolvency law are also important areas of study, with different countries adopting contrasting attitudes to corporate failure and its consequences. The comparative approach, which it is proposed will be adopted in teaching the course, should lead students to a better understanding of the subject in its wider social context.
