With the world being at the brink of „trade wars“ between the EU, the US and China the legal grounds of International Economic Law demand a closer look. In the course of the class the legal sources of the present day world economic order and their practical consequences will be analysed. Especially the WTO regime will be taken into focus with institutional and material rules according to the WTO agreement, GATT, GATS and TRIPs. In addition the WTO’s Dispute Settlement Agreement (DSA) with its procedural rules to settle imminent trade conflicts will be eximend. Beside this, international corporate law with the existing codes of conduct, international competition and tax law will be addressed. Finally, the traditional elements of international investment protection law and the institutions based on the Bretton Woods system (1944) with the World Bank Group and the IMF in center will be discussed. International Economic Law encompasses rules from international law, EU law and several soft law instruments.
