Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide introductory notions of Law and fundamental notions of Public Law through an analysis of the characteristics, organisation, structure and functions of public powers and the relationships between public authorities and private freedoms.
Topics related to the most recent constitutional practice will be addressed along with the most interesting new developments in the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court; there will be a strong focus on the role of constitutional bodies and the new issues tied to political decentralisation in a regionalist and federalist direction; all institutions of direct democracy will be examined, with particular attention to the referendum tool; the inviolable rights recognised by the Constitution will be analysed and particular attention will be given to the new categories of fundamental individual rights identified by constitutional jurisprudence.
The main purpose of the second course module is to provide students with a basic knowledge of the subjective and objective dimensions of public administration; it further aims to develop students' ability to analyse the forms and methods of exercising the administrative function and the relationships between public authorities and private freedoms; and, finally, their ability to analyse and acquire basic knowledge about the public demand for goods and services
