EU Law II
Full course description
The goal of this course is to give students a solid basis into the core of the ‘substantive law’ of the European Union. In that light, the course focuses on the law of the internal market and competition law. These areas are the foundations of the economic and social order of the European Union. The course deals in detail with the free movement of goods (both financial and quantitative restrictions), free movement of persons (EU citizens, workers, and self-employed persons) and their family members, ), free movement of services, and free movement of capital. Under the umbrella of competition law, the course focuses on Article 101 TFEU and Article 102 TFEU as well as the procedural enforcement of those provisions. Please note that this is an elective course, and the number of places available is limited.

- Be able to solve a legal problem in relation to those areas; and
