LAWS 799A - Tort Theory SeminarCredits: 2
The seminar addresses the relationship between tort theory and doctrine. Though one focus of the seminar is on the role in tort law doctrine of control of people or property, students will be given latitude in selecting a paper topic in terms of tort law doctrine to be addressed and theoretical framework to be used. Students may focus on the South Carolina law on the chosen topic or address the “national” law on the topic. Where appropriate, proposals for changing doctrines should be included.
Note: Class will not meet regularly during the middle of the semester while students are writing their papers. During the final part of the semester, students will present their papers to the class.
Satisfies the perspective course requirement.
