1 2017/8 - LAW-4005B PRINCIPLES OF CRIMINAL LAW Spring Semester, Level 4 module (Maximum 220 Students) Organiser: Dr Ian Edwards Timetable Slot:E1*A1 This module provides an introduction to the core principles of English criminal law and provides students with the opportunity to examine criminal laws in their social contexts. Students will examine the core principles through a series of illustrative case-studies. Topics will include: homicide; causation; non-fatal offences against the person; property offences; defences; inchoate liability; complicity. THIS MODULE IS ONLY OPEN TO LAW STUDENTS. 2017/8 - LAW-4006B CONTRACT LAW Spring Semester, Level 4 module (Maximum 220 Students) Organiser: Dr Gareth Spark Timetable Slot:C6*A6 This module considers the nature of contractual obligations, the legal principles which govern the formation, content and validity of contracts and the remedies available for breach of contractual obligations. It provides an understanding of the fundamental principles and key doctrines of the English law of contract. 2017/8 - LAW-5012B FAMILY LAW: CHILD LAW (Maximum 90 Students) Organiser: Ms Polly Morgan Timetable Slot:C3*D7 Child Law is a socio-legal study of the moral and legal laws connecting parents, children and the state. We consider who is a parent; what rights and responsibilities parents have; to what extent children have been able to assert human rights; the welfare principle (the basis on which decisions about children are made); law and policy arguments surrounding postseparation parenting and contact; child protection and local authority duties towards children; when we take a child into care and why we tolerate some harm to children; and adoption. The

2 module reflects both the practical application of child law What is the law? How does it work in practice? and the theoretical basis of the law Why is the law the way it is? What does that say about society? How could we think differently about it, and change the law? It develops law-specific academic and practical skills, as well as transferable skills. International/exchange students are very welcome. Anyone who has not studied law before should contact the module organiser for advice prior to enrolment. 2017/8 - LAW-5013B LAW AND BUSINESS (Maximum 75 Students) Organiser: Dr Viviana Mollica Timetable Slot:A9*A10 The module seeks to introduce students to the way in which law and business interact in terms of the different forms of business organisations and how we might choose between them, the considerations involved in sale and finance and other discrete areas of law on which more specialised modules can then build. 2017/8 - LAW-5014B PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW (Maximum 78 Students) Organiser: Dr Avidan Kent Timetable Slot:C7*C8 Public international law is the legal regime that governs States, and as such balances law with international affairs and politics. This module examines how international law is formed, who it applies to, the role of the United Nations and how public international law protects individuals. Particular focus is placed on human rights, refugee law, international humanitarian law and international criminal law. The module addresses both the practical and theoretical aspects of public international law and consequently considers how the public international law framework applies to contemporary situations. 2017/8 - LAW-5015B EMPLOYMENT LAW 1 (Maximum 125 Students) Organiser: Ms Deborah Ives Timetable Slot:E3*A4

3 Individual Employment Law (Employment Law 1) is a single (Spring) semester 20-credit optional module. It examines individual employment law, including employment status and forms of working relationships, formation and content of contracts of employment, termination of employment at common law, unfair dismissal, redundancy and business transfers. 2017/8 - LAW-5016B THE LAW OF TORT (Maximum 202 Students) Organiser: Dr Sebastian Peyer Timetable Slot:C2*D4 Exam Paper(hrs):2 Students will be taught general principles of civil liability for damage done by one person to another, including the law of negligence (particularly in relation to personal injury), liability for statements, occupier's liability, nuisance, intentional torts and damages. 2017/8 - LAW-5019B ANIMAL WELFARE LAW (Maximum 24 Students) Organiser: Dr Gareth Spark Timetable Slot:A5*D3, E2*E3/B5*B6 Exam Period:SPR-02 The module will consider the law relating to animal protection and animal welfare in England and Wales, including the effect on domestic law of EU law and international law. In particular, it will consider, first, the original development of animal protection law, including the social and political context in which legislation was originally enacted. The module will then move on to consider in detail the move from individual, narrow, situation-specific legislation to the general protection offered by the Protection of Animals Act 1911, the first general animal protection legislation in the UK. After considering the significant development of animal protection legislation in the UK, the module will consider the field of animal welfare science, giving students a foundation in the basic welfare concepts on which the modern animal welfare law is based. After explaining the necessary concepts of animal welfare science, the module will move on to consider the development of law in the UK, which led to the Animal Welfare Act 2006, taking the law from its principal focus on prevention of cruelty towards an additional concern for a promotion of good welfare. The module will then consider the law relating to the protection/welfare of animals in specific situations, such as: - The Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, as amended (including currently

4 proposed amendments); - Scientific testing (including consideration of the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 and the associated regulatory regime); - Wild animals (including the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and the Wild Mammals (Protection) Act 1996); - Farm animals (including the Welfare of Farmed Animals Regulations 2007, as amended, and the EU Welfare of Animals (Transport) England Order 2006 and associated EU legislation); - Hunting (including the political and legal debates surrounding the Hunting Act 2004). 2017/8 - LAW-6016B LAW AND MEDICINE (Maximum 64 Students) Organiser: Professor Rob Heywood Timetable Slot:A8*B9, B1*B2/B3*E4 Exam Paper(hrs):2 The module provides an in-depth examination of a range of medico-legal issues and explores the interface between the law and medical ethics. The module will investigate various areas of law and analyse the potential effect of legal rules on the provision of contemporary medicine. It will further address how the law impacts upon medical professionals in terms of their legal, professional and ethical accountability and consider important questions pertaining to patient rights. 2017/8 - LAW-6017B INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAW (Maximum 29 Students) Organiser: Mr Durand Cupido Timetable Slot:D1*D2,C5*C6/C7*C8 Exam Paper(hrs):2 This module is intended to introduce students to the English law and practice of international trade. Although there have been considerable attempts to harmonise the law relating to international trade at an international level, English law remains of very considerable importance and is often chosen as the applicable law to govern international transactions. This module looks at the English law relating to international sales, international payments and international carriage of goods by sea. As well as these core contracts in an international trade transaction, the module will also examine international dispute resolution and the problems of governing law, jurisdiction and enforcement of judgments, and the growing use of international commercial arbitration as an alternative to international litigation. It also briefly introduces students to why and how the laws in these areas have become increasingly harmonised.

5 2017/8 - LAW-6018B JURISPRUDENCE (Maximum 38 Students) Organiser: Dr Stathis Banakas Module Type: Coursework Timetable Slot:A9*A10 Students undertake directed reading on main currents of legal philosophy. This unit does not have formal lectures. 2017/8 - LAW-6019B INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW (Maximum 83 Students) Organiser: Dr Nick Scharf Timetable Slot:C6*A7, B9*B10/E3*A4/B5*B6 Intellectual Property (IP) law can affect, the music you listen to, the brands you buy, the films you watch, the technology you use, the books you read, the shape of the bottle you drink from, the websites you view... In short, IP law applies to nearly everything in your daily life. Primarily, it deals with the protection and encouragement of innovation in technology, business, the arts, and the creative industries. Intellectual property is an exciting and up to the minute field of law which is constantly evolving. Students will be introduced to, and encouraged to think about, the practical importance of intellectual property rights and their economic and philosophical justifications. There will also be a technological dimension to the module, whereby students will be introduced to the impact technology has had on the development and enforcement of IP rights. Students will learn the basics of intellectual property law over a broad spectrum, including how to apply the law to representative factual situations. The course is designed to give a rounded overview of the three main areas of Intellectual Property; copyright, patents and trade marks. 2017/8 - LAW-6020B INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW (Maximum 15 Students) Organiser: Dr Michael Hamilton Timetable Slot:D4,C1*C2/D3*C4 Exam Paper(hrs):3

6 This module will introduce students to the regional (European, Inter-American and African) and international (the OHCHR, UN Human Rights Council, treaty-based bodies, Universal Periodic Review, and Special Procedures) mechanisms of human rights protection. Lectures will focus on the conceptual and institutional framework for human rights protection, and will also seek to lay a foundation for more narrowly focused seminar discussions. The latter will consider in depth the content and scope of selected substantive rights such as the right to life, freedom from torture, and freedom of expression and assembly drawing upon relevant international, regional and domestic human rights jurisprudence. Seminars will also allow for discussion of the implementation and enforcement of human rights norms, and for critical reflection on the use of human rights language (reflecting on the adequacy of rights-based solutions to real-world problems). 2017/8 - LAW-6027B MISCARRIAGES OF JUSTICE (Maximum 36 Students) Organiser: Dr Stephen Heaton Timetable Slot:D1*D2, E3*A4/B5*B6 This module will give students the chance to consider how the criminal justice system tries to achieve the objectives of convicting the guilty and avoid convicting the innocent. Using Packer s model as a conceptual framework, students will critically analyse current and previous arrangements for preventing and correcting miscarriages of justice. Defining and quantifying miscarriages of justice (and considering what level of error is acceptable ) will be undertaken. Inter-disciplinary (drawing on psychological research) issues and the role of forensic science will be considered. The roles of the Court of Appeal and Criminal Cases Review Commission in correcting errors will be examined in detail. Compensation arrangements for victims of miscarriage of justice will be subjected to detailed critical analysis. Students will be encouraged to challenge existing arrangements and consider critically proposals for change. A number of case studies will be used during the module. The module will make extensive use of podcasts to disseminate supplementary information. 2017/8 - LAWZ5018B EU CONSTITUTIONAL LAW (Maximum 16 Students) Organiser: Miss Eloise Ellis Timetable Slot:A3*B4 Exam Period:SPR-02 This module examines European Union constitutional law and the functioning of the EU at supranational level. It will start with an analysis of the EU institutions and their interaction, the legislative process and the role of fundamental rights in EU law. It will then consider

7 direct actions before the Court of Justice, in particular actions for annulment and actions against recalcitrant Member States. Finally, a topical issue of EU constitutional law will be addressed. 2017/8 - LAWZ6023B CRIME AND SENTENCING (Maximum 72 Students) Organiser: Dr Ian Edwards Timetable Slot:D6A6 Crime and Sentencing examines the nature and extent of the problem of crime in England and Wales and sentencing law. First, the module looks at sources of knowledge about crime, comparing depictions of crime and criminals in the media with knowledge derived from criminal statistics (including recorded crime statistics and the British Crime Survey). Second, we look at the main theories of sentencing and punishment: retribution, deterrence, incapacitation, rehabilitation and restoration. Third, we explore the sources of sentencing law and sentencing decisions: statute, case-law, ministerial statements and informal sources. Fourth, we turn to the recent history of sentencing law in England and Wales, evaluating the coherence of the overall sentencing structure. Fifth, the module examines the impact of moves towards structured sentencing, focusing on the impact of sentencing guidelines and the Sentencing Council on promoting consistency in sentencing. Sixth, attention turns to the use of imprisonment asking, What are prisons for and are they used appropriately? The module examines the treatment of offenders with mental health problems and those who are deemed dangerous, as well as the use of mandatory minimum sentences (sometimes called three strikes and you re out laws). We also look at the efficacy of alternatives to imprisonment, such as community orders. Seventh, the focus shifts to victims of crime: what role can and do victims have in sentencing proceedings? Should they have any input at all? Restorative justice will be examined as an innovative yet controversial means of responding to crime that places victims at the heart of responses to crime. THIS MODULE IS FOR LAW STUDENTS ONLY.
