This option is designed for students interested in the application of World Trade Organisation (WTO) law to digital goods and services (e-commerce). The course reflects the rapidly growing significance of e-commerce to international trade, looking in detail at the application of WTO law (GATS/GATT/TRIPS and other relevant WTO agreements/instruments) to e-commerce both from developed and developing country perspectives. As such, it meets the needs of students interested in the application of public international law to the communications sector (e-commerce, audiovisual and telecommunication sectors), and ancillary sectors, such as the computing and distribution sectors. The course also builds on aspects of the Public International Law option offered as part of the ITL LLM and students may find it helpful to take this first before commencing Trading in Digital Goods & Services in Term 2. The course also complements the private transnational law option Legal Aspects of Electronic Commercial Transactions offered in Term 1.
