Obiettivi formativi

Fundamental Rights are a key topic of the Europeanization and globalization of the institutions of public law at every layer of government. The protection of fundamental rights requires specific legal knowledge and a proper methodology. Theories and practices of fundamental rights need to be analysed from different viewpoints so as to enable students  

- to discuss and implement the various legal philosophies, general theories of law, legal and political cultures feeding the controversies on subjective fundamental rights in an open society, not only in Europe, but beyond

- to apply a systematic interpretation of the various legal orders and sources of law regarding fundamental rights,

- to apply all tools offered by jurisdictional, administrative and political guarantees, including human rights watching, within the various legal orders operating in Europe

- to analyse and provide solutions for all kinds of old and new, decided, pending or future fundamental rights' problems
