Università Roma Tre

The course proposes to investigate the historical dimension of administrative law from the Late Middle Ages, when the jurists put forward the first conceptualisations of forms of ecclesiastical and secular administratio. Through the analysis of historical sources, students follow an historical and legal path through which the administratio progressively separates itself from the medieval iurisdictio and the administrative power obtains legal and scientific autonomy from judicial power, up to the birth of administrative law in the modern Ages.

The programme for students attending the course is based in part on the textbook and in part on readings suggested in class by the Professor.

Students not attending the course will take the final exam in oral form on the whole textbook.

The textbook recommended to all students (whether attending or not) is the following: L. Mannori – B. Sordi, Storia del diritto amministrativo, Laterza.
