Università Roma Tre

Lessons held from 7 April to 26 May

Students will acquire specific knowledge and competences regarding themes relative to the Rule of Law, subsidiarity and the protection of common goods, deeply analyzing the legal aspects that constitute them, in a comparative and international perspective. After a brief synthesis of the history of Street Law - first introduced at Georgetown Law School in 1972, and now taught across the USA and in 40 nations around the world – the concepts of the Rule of Law and subsidiarity and the various norms that regulate citizens and the institutions will be examined. Students will then be provided with the conceptual and practical tools needed to transmit these principles – by teaching civic education to high school students – to promote the transfer of them into actions aimed at caring for common goods.

Various documents, articles and digital sources will be suggested and provided during the course.
