Università Roma Tre

The course will investigate the relation between law and social change in the present time, and in the theoretical and empirical foundation processes of the modern State. It will provide both the tools necessary for understanding emerging problems, and conceptual tools related to critical thinking and gender studies, together with the classic themes of the socio-legal thought.
The course will develop through two modules. The former will inquire into the theoretical bases that authors and foundational themes provide to the discipline, with regard both to the legal culture and the institutions aimed at managing social deviant behaviours (Luhmann; Habermas; Bourdieu; Foucault; Canetti; the approach of Critical Legal Studies, of Law and Economics, and the approach that investigates the relation between law and gender studies).
The second module will offer more specific tools, i.e. the analysis of the symbolic, cultural and legal function of the contribution of feminist studies in relation to law, deviance and power. In particular, the relationship between the Thought of Sexual Difference and the doctrine of Juridical Experience will be investigated, both at a theoretical level and in the practices carried out in trials, as well as the concept of “Juridical Feminism” applied to the main themes of the present time: equality/difference; citizenship/borders; criminology/delinquency/security; justice/law/rights; gender/sexuality/reproduction; victim/victimology/vulnerability.
