NEW COURSES

CUHK LAW offers the following new courses in the academic year 2023-24:

This course introduces students to current applications of AI in law and business in a thought-provoking way and encourages students to develop a broad and multifaceted philosophy of how AI, law and society co-exist. It also looks at the impact of AI in specific areas of law, including contract, criminal, finance, intellectual property and torts.

These courses equip students with a sound/advanced understanding of the CISG and its theoretical and practical implications thus preparing them for legal work related to international trade.

These courses provide an introduction to the interaction of digital technology and law. They will provide students with an overview of the issues that digital technology has raised in the main practice areas of law including contract, crime, corporate governance, death, divorce, insolvency and regulation.

This course intends to provide a “one-stop shop” for students wishing to acquire a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory challenges surrounding by the digital economy, and how those challenges affect the legal landscape of Hong Kong and Mainland China. It adopts a global and comparative perspective.

The following courses were introduced in the academic year 2022-23:

This course deals with the legal and regulatory aspects of clean technologies, with a focus on the clean energy transition and innovation in the energy sector. It aims to introduce the main regulatory principles that apply to the reorganization of energy systems towards sustainability and decarbonization.

This course surveys copyright issues pertaining to digital subject matter, including digital works and computer software from a global comparative perspective. Whether there is copyright subsistence and in what, whether infringement occurs and where, by whom, and the scope of implied licences and limitations or exceptions are all considered.

This course examines the principles underlying Chinese law with respect to copyright, patents, trade secrets, and trademarks. These include those concerning computers, the Internet, biotechnology, plant varieties, and e-commerce. Competition law, technology transfer law, and the international intellectual property system are also considered.

This course aims to provide students with a solid theoretical and practical understanding of the principal merger control regimes that affect companies in Hong Kong. It also analyzes local merger control rules as well as the rules of those regimes which most frequently apply to merger transactions involving local firms.

This course examines the legal and regulatory aspects of the new digital economy. It presents the technologies enabling new forms of economic activity and enables students to comprehend their implications and limitations. The legal aspects of digitization are discussed, with special emphasis on dematerialization, automation, and virtualization.

The following courses were introduced in the academic year 2021-22:

The course explains how technology supports legal practice. It creates students’ awareness of the need to design technology solutions to increase the efficiency of legal work. It also enables students to appreciate the legal implications of common digital technology they face when they enter the legal profession as a trainee solicitor or pupil barrister.

The course focuses on the relationship between technology and Chinese law. Designed as an interdisciplinary course covering technology, sociology, law and ethics, the course discusses jurisdiction specific aspects arising in  China.

The course teaches the conflict of laws (private international law) issues faced by lawyers in advising on international commercial court cases. With Hong Kong being one of the top international dispute resolution centers in the world, knowledge of this aspect of conflict of laws is essential for any future lawyer aspiring to practise in commercial litigation. 

The course provides an overview of the different areas of corporate and personal insolvency work with an emphasis on the practical challenges encountered by insolvency professionals, including cross-border recognition and recovery issues. It prepares students who may be interested in obtaining the specialist qualification in insolvency, a professional qualification that is well-recognized by insolvency practitioners in Hong Kong.

The course provides students with a greater understanding of the connections between law, empire, European colonization and the formation of contemporary states. It adopts a broad historical approach to these subjects, beginning with some theoretical investigations before turning to consider how law and the state have evolved in several different key contexts. In addition to its substantive content, the course aims to introduce students to the study of legal history and law and society broadly, opening up the range of perspectives from which students may consider legal issues and the place and role of law in the contemporary world.

The course aims to increase students’ knowledge about the international legal profession, focusing in particular on the law and practice of adjudicatory bodies operating in the field of International Economic Law. It seeks to develop the analytical and critical skills of students by detailed examination of the relevant conventions, statutes, rules of conduct and cases. In addition, the course discusses key questions of professional ethical conduct and investigates developing trends in the international legal market. Beyond that, the course aims to encourage students to consider the role of different legal professionals in the settlement of international disputes and expand their knowledge about how the international legal market operates in real life.

The following courses were introduced in the academic year 2020-21:

The course explores the manner in which the history of empire has shaped both national and international legal orders. It aims to explore the tensions inherent in the concept by examining the history and evolution of public order governance in the British Empire. The course will examine the ideologies that underpinned approaches to public order governance, considering (elite) attitudes towards the masses of the people and the challenges of governance both at home and in the colonies. The next portion of the class explores ‘everyday’ forms of public order governance, including informal and state violence, the evolution of the police, and the ways in which law evolved in order to ensure wealth generation. Following these examinations, the course turns to consider more exceptional modes of public order governance, including the policing of protests, the imposition of emergency and martial law, the development of intelligence services and counterinsurgency policy. The course concludes with some reflections on the rule of law in the colonial context more broadly, as well as with an examination of some of the ongoing resonances of colonial legality in the contemporary period.

The course examines the ways in which law and the legal system are represented in a variety of films. It also considers the ways in which films engage with legal debates and controversies. It aims to encourage reflection on the cultural lives of the law and also on a central theme in film studies. The course is organised thematically and analyses film and legal process from a variety of jurisdictions across the globe. It explores how key legal issues, procedures, and actors are represented on film and how these representations in popular culture in turn influence understandings of the law, and in certain circumstances even its development. In particular, the module will focus on the genre of documentary film because of its commitment to authenticity and investigation of reality, while giving the students the freedom to explore feature films, TV series, and podcasts.

The course equips research postgraduate (RPg) students with the skills and the necessary confidence to engage in law school classroom teaching as well as to reflect critically and constructively upon that teaching.

The course provides a broad introduction to the future of the legal profession in times when legal technologies are rapidly gaining importance. It discusses the different forms of legal technologies, explores the actual and potential impact of legal technologies on legal systems, concepts and rules, considers the application of legal technologies in particular areas of law, analyses and critiques the impact of legal technologies, including advantages and risks, on legal systems and the society as a whole.

The course discusses the development of the common law during times of decolonization. Students will establish an understanding of the basic concepts involved in the relationship between law and colonial systems and the historical background of colonial legal systems and their current and former international legal status. The course will examine the specific legal standards that developed under the conditions of colonialism, e.g. those related to slavery, restricted definitions of citizenship, capacity for territorial acquisition and native title, and others. Related academic theories and detailed historical studies will also be introduced. The course will also address the various forms that “decolonisation” has taken at the domestic and international levels, and help students to develop their own arguments regarding the best approach for legal systems transitioning towards self-determination.
