GENERAL OBJECTIVE:
THE TEACHING AIMS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH A BASIS FOR CRITICAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE HISTORICAL-CONSTITUTIONAL EVENTS OF THE MAIN EUROPEAN PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS AND OF THE MAIN COUNTRIES OF THE WESTERN AREA IN COMPARISON WITH ITALIAN ORGANIZATIONAL DIFFICULTIES. PARTICULAR ATTENTION WILL BE PAID TO THE PRE-COMPREHENSIVE STRUCTURES FROM WHICH ALL JUS-POLITICAL CONCEPTS ORIGINATE (E.G.: LEGISLATION; JURISDICTION; SOVEREIGNTY; LIMITS TO THE EXERCISE OF POWER; FREEDOM...) AND TO THE SOCIO-CULTURAL AND INSTITUTIONAL EFFECTS OF LEGAL, POLITICAL AND SOCIO-INSTITUTIONAL PHENOMENA.

KNOWLEDGE AND COMPREHENSION SKILLS:
TEACHING WILL ENABLE STUDENTS TO LEARN ABOUT HISTORICAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL PHENOMENA USEFUL FOR UNDERSTANDING THE CURRENT CONDITIONS OF WESTERN EUROPEAN STATES.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
THE EXPOSITION, READING AND ANALYSIS OF DOCUMENTS PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE WILL ENABLE STUDENTS TO KNOW THE MAIN CONSTITUTIONAL PHENOMENA ADDRESSED IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND CONTEMPORARY EVENTS WITH GREATER CRITICAL AWARENESS.

AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT:
