Why is Comparative Law, and International Law, necessary?
– Expanding the universe of perspectives for the lawyer’s toolkit through exposure to foreign legal concepts and foreign legal solutions allows an expanded frame for creative problem solving of local issues
– trade & investment among countries in general, and Brazil USA specifically creates legal and economic overlap (See draft Cross-Border Tax Syllabus attached)
