Free Online Course on Interpretation of Contracts

Indian Case Laws

Free Online Course on Interpretation of Contracts

In this course, learn how terms of a contract is interpreted by various Courts and arbitrators in India and how a smart lawyer should be drafting them so as to avoid any protracted litigation and disputes.

The course is intended for law students and budding lawyers desirous of honing their contract drafting skills and brushing up their understanding of crucial terms of a contract and their interpretation.

About the Course

The idea of drafting an agreement with a given template or term sheet and turning it into the execution copy, is not as easy as it seems. There are several ingredients which goes into the raw term sheet or template before the final recipe is ready to be served to the client. Some of the most important ingredients which you would be needing here are, your knowledge and understanding of the subject, experience, foresight of an eagle and above all, how a Court or an Arbitrator is going to interpret those terms, in case the contract ends up in the Court room desk of a Judge or an Arbitrator. To avoid any protracted litigation and consequent loss of one’s reputation, a smart lawyer would never draft a contract with loose ends, i.e. a contract which may be subject to several interpretations, in particular the one which may prejudice the interest of his/her client.

This course explores the rules for interpretation of contracts which the Courts and Arbitration Tribunals in India and common law countries often use to read and interpret the terms of a contract. The Course intends to help you develop an understanding of the interpretative value of different terms of a contract, so that you can use them as backdrop while you are drafting an agreement. This can help you sharpen your drafting skills and avoid any messy situation leading to loss of your reputation as a lawyer. The Course is based on leading judgments of Supreme Court and various High Courts as well as well established

Free certificate course on Climate change

What’s it about?

Climate change is the biggest global challenge the human race has ever faced. Our insatiable demand for energy from fossil fuels is changing the atmosphere, and in turn changing our climate. Climate change is already affecting the physical surface of the earth, the environment that provides our life support, our food supply, economy and society. These changes will accelerate over the next few decades.

What will I learn?

Why human activities are changing the climate
How our knowledge of science underpins what we know about the past, present and future climate
What our future might hold, and why we should care about it
Why an increase of 2 or 4°C in global average temperature is important
How the changing climate is affecting, and will continue to affect, the incidence and impacts of extreme weather events
The role of extreme events and the effect it has on our species, ecosystems, coastlines, food supply, health, infrastructure, economy and security
How climate change is likely to exacerbate existing problems of social inequality
How climate change will interact with other pressures on global systems such as ecosystem degradation and human population growth
Why fixing the climate problem is urgent, and how the timing of solutions is critical
The relative contributions that different emission reduction solutions have had on solving the climate problem

This course requires approximately 2 – 4 hours of study per week, but can vary depending on the student. This includes watching videos, and taking quizzes and assessments.

Free Online Certificate Course on Political Philosophy

About this course

This course is designed as a vocabulary of the main terms used by all of us when talking about local as well as world politics; terms which we often use without a proper awareness of their meanings and connections, a circumstance not exactly helpful to any attempt at understanding how politics really works, regardless of our wishful thinking or simplistic morality or easy cynicism.

Course Structure

Now, if we want to get deeper into the workings of politics – the only serious starting point for those who want to reform it – we must agree to begin with very abstract notions, that is with the general definitions of what politics, conflict, power (incl. force/violence), and what legitimate power mean (Part 1: What is Politics?). On these premises we will then explain the still main political institution, the state, and peer into the dynamics of war and peace that has dominated the relationships between the states (Part 2: How Does Politics Work?). Since with economic globalization, which has restricted the room for political action, things are getting much more complicated on the planet, and more challenging outside of it (man-made climate change starts in the atmosphere), classical notions have to be rethought. The very nature of the threats endangering our global commons does not leave the definition of politics (Part 3: World Politics and the Future).
This course does not aim at communicating any ‘message’ as to how politics ought to be, but it will obviously try to clarify the main concepts – freedom, equality, justice – we make use of while talking about values and principles in politics; this is what is called ‘normative political philosophy’ and is regarded here as an important chapter of political philosophy, not the whole of it (Part 4: Ethics and Politics).

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course you may have achieved a clearer and less confused awareness of the political vocabulary, thus gaining a more complex, more autonomous and more critical understanding of political processes. If you are a student of political science, law, sociology and economics you may get better tools for catching the overarching sense of processes that you do otherwise approach in a fragmented perspective.

Workload

My teaching method aims primarily at defining and discussing concepts, not at illustrating authors or providing historical narratives; needless to say, there will be enough reference to authors, books, events and processes, in particular with regard to the evolution of political modernity. For each of the twelve lectures of about 30-40′, which will be presented in shorter units, you may need three more hours of homework to do additional readings and – more importantly – to perform additional reflection.

Course Format

For most of the notions discussed in the course I will suggest readings consisting of both classical authors and recent literature. For each lecture I will reply to up to five requests of clarification or critical assessments (all this exclusively via the iversity platform). From time to time you will have the opportunity to test your acquisition of fresh knowledge by responding to multiple-choice-tests. At the end of the course you may want to take a final exam, whose format will be announced later. Letter-grading from 1 to 5 will be used.
There will be unfortunately no textbook. The textbooks available in English are all, though in various ways, different from my approach and my contents. My slides will serve as a textbook in a nutshell.

Prior Knowledge

Due to my conceptual approach, to follow this course you do not need a prior knowledge of philosophy or political science, just the degree of general culture needed to pass the final high school exam, be it Abitur, maturità, baccalauréat or 高考(gao kao).

MENTION KNOWLEDGE STEEZ FOR THE INFORMATION

Free Online Course in Public Privacy: Cyber Security and Human Rights

Course Description

“For the internet to remain global and open, it is imperative that countries, including those currently lacking capacity to adequately deal with security concerns, to adopt a growth- and freedom-oriented, participative, bottom-up perspective on security that has human rights at its core.” (Joint Governmental Statement at UN Human Rights Council in June 2013)

Arguably, the internet poses severe challenges to state sovereignty and governmental legitimacy. Governments around the world find it increasingly difficult to control, regulate or monitor the massive flow of data within the cyber-world and uphold human rights and fundamental freedoms at the same time. Nevertheless, the world wide web is one of the main prerequisites for economic growth and democracy. It enables citizen participation , engagements and inter-action on all levels that can lead to social transformation and political change. Radical groups, democracy movements, development organizations and human rights NGOs all use the internet to further their goals.

Since the former NSA contractor, Edward Snowden, released a variety of confidential documents we all know of PRISM, TEMPORA and other programs and their massive privacy infringements. These programs were primarily designed to collect user data to increase the capability of intelligence services to protect societies from internal and external threats. But are those programs not undermining essential citizen freedoms and fundamental human rights?

This course systematically examines the compliance between international human rights norms, standards and mechanism within legal and political frameworks and the growing cyber security regime. Debates about the loss of state sovereignty over cyber security, paired with the idea of internet freedom and users’ and citizens’ responsibility lead to the question, whether individual and state responsibility based on reciprocity and human rights compliance are reconcilable.

Learning Outcomes
Students taking this course will learn:
• how human rights are used in the debate about Public Privacy
• how individual, societal, political and governmental actors interact in this context
• what cyber security in consistency with human rights is about.

Using this information, students will practice assessing and analyzing cyber security issues based on international human rights norms, standards and regimes.

Course StructureThe first part of the course will provide an overview of the current state of international and regional human rights regimes and their efforts to protect freedom rights while also ensuring private security. The second part will then go into the evolution of human rights, their violations and protection mechanism in era of the internet.

Week 1: An introduction to public privacy, cyber security and human rights

Week 2: Yours and the rights of others: civic and social human rights

Week 3: Human rights cyber regime

Week 4: Agencies for the human rights cyber space

Week 5: Security, human rights and privacy assurance through Internet

Week 6: E-democracy and social networks

Week 7: Public versus State Sovereignty

Week 8: Public Privacy, internet freedom and state responsibility.

Course Format

The course will be hosted online and will consist of lectures by the instructor, as well as guest lectures and exclusive interviews with respective stakeholders. Additional reading material, animations and images will support each learning objective. Students will be assessed through quizzes, peer-to-peer review and their participation in interactive discussion forums.
