Critical Perspectives On Private Law(Global Legal Studies)
(objectives)
The course aims at shedding light on the ways in which private law not only affects social, economic and gender relations but also directly and indirectly creates the identity of social actors by establishing the rules of the game and distributing economic resources and power. To this purpose special attention will be paid to the re-reading of the fundamental institutions of classical legal thought (contract, torts, property and family) offered by critical scholars and particularly feminist legal scholars.
