授課內容

This course seeks to build up a generic foundation and basic introduction to the Anglo-American legal system and its features. The course begins with the explanations of the origin of the Anglo-American legal system, and how it is distinctive from the civil law system, under which the legislature establishes a comprehensive code to govern all activities and to provide a basis for resolving all disputes. Next, the course will then introduce a series of cases delivered by the U.S. Supreme Court, including the landmark cases with respect to the First Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. This course aims to analyze how the highest legal authority of the Anglo-American legal system establishes the essence of rule of law, separation of powers, and implements a bill of rights.
