Abstract
This paper examines issues in the internationalisation of Business Law curricula. The impetus for internationalisation of curricula has been felt in tertiary education for at least the past two decades. However, experience suggests that the response in Business Law has not always demonstrated a shift to an integrated and seemless approach. The response has instead tended to be piecemeal and ad hoc. The reality of global economies and the access of the household consumer to transnational contracts demands that we offer Business students opportunities to gain the requisite understanding to negotiate international frontiers. Using a case study methodolgy, the authors review Business Law curricula and examine strategies of curriculum review in order to address this apparent gap.
