Kommentar
Course description
This course deals with the general ideas as well as recent developments in European Consumer Law.We are going to acquaint ourselves with the Directives on consumer protection in force at the moment. Afterwards, we will take a closer look at the Consumer Sales Directive (1999/44/EC) and the Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU).
European Consumer Law also has been shaped by the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union. We are therefore going to take a closer look at seminal cases.
Finally, we will analyse whether and how the proposal of a Common European Sales Law would affect existent legislation if it entered into force.
This course is an offer directed mainly at our guests from abroad. However, domestic students will be able to achieve a "Nachweis der rechtswissenschaftlichen Fremdsprachenkompetenz" (§ 15 Abs. 1 lit. b) StO).
The course will be accompanied by a presentation which you can download at the beginning of the semester from the "Blackboard", the online learning platform of FU Berlin.
