Objectives
LEGAL CULTURE AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
THE COURSE FOCUSES ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LEGAL CULTURES AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND PARTICULARLY ON THE PECULIAR FEATURES OF LEGAL SYSTEMS OF COMMON LAW TRADITION, IN COMPARISON WITH THE CIVIL LAW ONES, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT HYBRIDS SYSTEMS AS WELL. THE MAIN GOAL IS TO SHOW OF THE CULTURAL IMPACT ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. FURTHERMORE, THE UNFLEXIBLE CHARACTER OF THE TRADITIONAL THEORIC APPROACHES WILL BE CRITICIZED TO ASSERT THE NEED OF A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO PROPERLY UNDERSTAND THE OBJECTS OF STUDY, FOLLOWING THE PATH TRACED BY THE PIONERISTIC CONTRIBUTES BY MAX WEBER AND LAURENCE FRIEDMAN.
