This survey course analyzes the key legal and practical aspects of doing business internationally. Designed for practicing international lawyers, government officials and as a foundation for many of the other economic law courses offered at Arizona Law, emphasis is placed on the international sale of goods (including terms, credit and insurance); transfers of technology (through licensing, franchising and distributorship arrangements), foreign investment (establishment, operation and withdrawal); and dispute settlement (choice of law, jurisdiction, enforcement of foreign awards). Key international agreements, such as the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards and the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials will also be analyzed, along with limited coverage of intellectual property issues. The \"public\" side of international trade law-- the GATT/WTO system, NAFTA, customs law, tariffs, etc.-- is not covered except very briefly in this course but is amply addressed in other Arizona Law course offerings.
