This course offers a critical, comparative introduction to English property law in particular, as well as the common law in general. It will explore the radically different concepts and structure of English property law, such as relativity of title, trusts and vindication of rights through tort law. Through a focus on the debates and controversies in the case law and academia, students will be encouraged to engage actively and form their own views. In addition to the weekly lectures, students are each invited to attend two (optional) ‘tutorials’, to be held in small groups or individually, depending on the number of students. These will offer an opportunity for students to discuss the aspects they find most interesting in greater depth, ask questions freely and discuss their essays or essay plans. Leitstungsnachweis: Essay on a topic of the student’s choice
