THE COURSE IS AIMED TO GIVE STUDENTS THE CONCEPTUAL TOOLS TO VERIFY HOW THE SPACE IN WHICH PEOPLE'S LIVE ARE SHAPED BY THEIR CULTURE, AS WELL AS SHOWING THE DIFFERENT WAY IN WHICH INSTITUTIONS AND LEGAL STRUCTURES REACT TO DIVERSITY. THROUGH AN INTERCULTURAL LEGAL APPROACH WE INTEND TO CREATE THE CONDITIONS FOR A CROSS-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION IN ORDER TO INTEGRATE THE LAW IN THE DIFFERENT LIFE MODELS, AND CUSTOMARY BEHAVIOR. IN THIS WAY, THE AIM IS TO CREATE THE CONDITIONS FOR OVERCOMING THE COGNITIVE BARRIERS POSED BY THE CULTURAL LEGAL DIFFERENCES. TO INTERPRET CORRECTLY THE MEANINGS ARTICULATED BY PEOPLE FROM ABROAD - OR FROM DIFFERENT CULTURES - (BE THEY ENTREPRENEURS, WORKERS, SUBJECTS ACTING AS HEIRS, PARENTS, SPOUSES, CONTRACTUAL PARTIES, PARTNERS, ETC.) IT IS THE PREREQUISITE FOR ALSO IDENTIFYING WHICH LAW (AS SPECIFIC LEGAL RULE) NORMS, TO APPLY IN CASE OF A LEGAL DISPUTE. THE INTERNATIONAL-PRIVATE-LAW TOOLS AND THE JURIDICAL-COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS ARE INDISPENSABLE TO FACE AND ADEQUATELY RESPOND TO THESE NEW NEEDS. |

INTERCULTURAL LAW WAS PROVISIONALLY DEFINED AS A TYPE OF LAW THAT MANAGES TO COHERE A DIVERSITY OF LEGALLY RELEVANT SOCIAL PRACTICESHEREBY REGULATING DIVERSITY WITHOUT ENFORCING RIGID UNITY, WHILE AT THESAME TIME AVOIDING A NORMATIVE CHAOS LEADING TO LEGAL UNCERTAINTY. THE QUESTION SEEMS TO BE WHETHER THE INTERCULTURAL LAW IS A RECENT INVENTION OR CAN BE CONSIDERED AS A COMMON PRACTICE OF INTERPRETATION. WHICH ARE THE EPISTEMOLOGICAL PRESUMPTIONS OF SUCH A CONCEPTION OF LAW? DO WE HAVE TO DISCARD THE CENTRAL TENET OF SOME POSTMODERN COMPARATIVISTS THAT PRO-CLAIM THE INCOMMENSURABILITY OF CULTURES? DO WE HAVE TO RELATIVISE WESTERN CONCEPTIONS OF POSITIVE LAW? TO WHAT DEGREE IS COORDINATION OF DIVERSITY SUS-TAINABLE? (HOW) COULD RELIGIOUSLY INSPIRED LAW LIKE THE SHARI’A BE ACCOMMO-DATED IN A CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY?THE COURSE ATTEMPTS TO ANSWER ALL THESE QUESTIONS. |
