Università Roma Tre

In line with the tutorial objectives of the Degree Course in Economics and Business Management (CLEGA), the teaching focuses on the general guidelines of the EU and national regulatory framework aimed at protecting the rights of consumers and users. The course aims to provide the students with the skills to grasp the problems which may arise before consumers and users of public and private services, so as to correctly frame them in their essential legal elements and possibly identify the tools for their solution. It will be mainly seminarial and will be conducted through a constant examination of EU and Italian regulatory texts, as well as the analysis of the most relevant judgments pronounced by the EU Court of Justice, by the Italian Court of Cassation and by the relevant Courts. Attending students will receive special in-depth didactic material relating to the topics covered.
At the end of the course, students are expected to have:
- ability to examine and interpret sources, organization and regulations;
- knowledge and understanding of the basic and sectoral legal rules governing the wide-ranging protection of the consumer;
- ability to trace, among the rules of consumer law, those suitable for providing the solution of a concrete case;
- the acquisition of a method which allows the student to orient himself/herself, within the legal system, in the search for the most suitable tools to address issues and problems not previously addressed, through the process of empowering the interpreter.
