The seminar is structured around four thematic pillars: data governance under the GDPR; the EU AI Act and its risk-based regulatory architecture; intellectual property and liability in the context of AI-generated outputs and automated systems; and global AI governance, including a comparative overview of key jurisdictions and prospects for international regulatory coordination.

In this module the students will be introduced to international economic law, particularly world trade law, and its intersections with sustainability issues will be addressed, in particular environmental protection and labour and social standards.
