The main objective of this course is to explore the contemporary system of international economic law, its theory, and practice. The course has a clear orientation towards understanding and resolving contemporary disputes, which arise as a result of the increasing specialization of the field of ‘international economic law’ and the accompanying ‘fragmentation’ of public international law. The course will address three main dimensions of international economic law viz. international trade law, international investment law and international monetary and finance law. The course will adopt a trans-disciplinary approach that encompasses international law, economics and finance, international relations, development studies, and human rights, in the broad interface between international economic law and development.
