About the centre |
Lord Mansfield 1705-1793 |
| The principal object of UCL’s Commercial
Law Centre is to promote excellence in the research and teaching of international
commercial law. An important aspect of the Centre’s role is to bridge
the gap between academic law and its practical application.
The work of the Centre explores the socio-economic, political and theoretical
importance of commercial law. A principal aim is to bring coherence and
theoretical direction to a subject traditionally viewed as merely an amorphous
category or convenient umbrella term. Consistent with this aim, UCL scholars
give voice to a distinctive position which views commercial law as a fundamental
bedrock of principles underpinning otherwise diverse areas of private
and public law. In so doing, we challenge traditional subject boundaries
(such as 'contract', 'restitution' etc), drawing upon the Faculty's jurisprudential
strengths to develop a solid unifying theoretical framework. The Faculty's
commercial law research strength embraces both civilian and common law
perspectives, as well as the transnational nature of commercial enterprise
in the global economy.
