Università Roma Tre

The course is intended to illustrate, through the direct examination of the sources of law and doctrine of the legal science in modern and contemporary Europe, the rationale of the constitutionalism in its legislative development during XVIII and XIX centuries with particular reference to France, Germany and Italy.

Particular attention will be dedicated to the evolution of English constitutionalism, which deals with different theoretical and practical profiles with respect to those relating to French, German and Italian constitution experiences.

It will be indeed to explain that English legal system was not involved to problems characterising other Countries in Europe further to the exit from the Ancient Regime through the introduction of the “sole subject of the law” and through the development of the State as legislator and its personification.
