The course intends to give an overview on the legal regulation of multinational enterprises in general and more specifically from the point of view of private international law. Accordingly, the emphasis will be put on the issue of jurisdiction and applicable law. Although private international law does not decide in itself the merits of a legal dispute related to the operation of an MNE, rules on jurisdiction and governing law can largely determine the outcome of such cases.
