Aims, contents and method of the course
The course aims to teach students the ability to independently analyze legal problems in an academic manner and to present the results of such analysis. The course covers legal problems that have emerged in case law and legal literature or that stem from recent legislative reforms. It focuses on pervasive problems in European Civil Procedure Law. Potential topics will be further defined in the course of the first meeting. Students may also submit suggestions for topics.
Assessment and permitted materials
The first session, taking place on 8 March 2017 in Vienna, is dedicated to the selection and distribution of topics. Following the first session, undergraduate students will have to independently research case law and literature concerning their topic and draft a research paper. The research paper’s results will then be presented in the course of a two days session scheduled for 4 to 5 May 2017. Each presentation will be followed by a discussion. Graduate students do not have to submit a research paper. They will only have to present the result of their research during the sessions indicated.
