课程介绍

开设本课程的目的是使外国学生了解中国合同法，从比较法的角度了解和认识中国合同法和外国合同法的区别。外国学生在学习这门课之后能够解决法律问题，进行法律谈判。

This course aims to introduce to our overseas students the Chinese contract law and its application, with the purpose of establishing our students’ capability to conduct comparative studies on the law of contracts. The course is of use to law and business students understanding Chinese law and contract law in China. With this goal in mind, this course is to focus on those topics that figure prominently in most contracts courses but within a Chinese context, to organize and illustrate them in a way that will be comprehensible to a student with only a general background, and to draw on sources befitting education at the university level. More theoretical treatments of some topics can be found in academic treaties and journal articles. It is not the intention to offer deep academic analyses of all of these topics.

The main content of this course covers both Chinese statutory law and judicial interpretations, and the Anglo-American common law doctrines of the subject. Lectures and discussions will be mixed in the classroom. Students are encouraged to read the given materials and to bring out their questions and views during the classes. Negotiation exercises will be carried out in some classes so that the students will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge of contract law to hypothetical scenarios. Students are also required to conduct research and to do presentations on a couple of legal doctrines by reference to the law and legal principles in their home countries."
