The course is intended to provide the students with notions and points of reflection, from an historical and juridical point of view, on the legal systems and sources of law in the medieval modern and contemporary Europe, moving from the direct examination of the sources of law, doctrines and application of law (which will be made available to the students and analysed together with them).

From the analysis of the systems and sources of law of the Early Middle Age the course will deal to examine the development of the statutory law (diritto comune) in Italy, Germany and France (Droit coutumier) until its crisis, in other words until that period defined “Ancien Régime” by Alexis de Tocqueville and which occurs before the season of the stabilization of the European laws of XIX century. The course will therefore the main phases whereby the current occidental legal systems based on codes and constitutions, evidencing the relevant doctrinal, political, social and economics recitals occurred during the age of the judicial particularism and according to the theory of modern natural law and rationalism.

Particular attention will be dedicated to the evolution of the ancient English constitutionalism, which deals with different theoretical and practical profiles with respect to those relating to the stabilization of French, German and Italian constitution experiences and which is not involved in problems characterising other Countries in Europe: the English law system based on the complex and articulated common law system, was not influenced by the theory of Sovereign State arising from French Revolution nor by the pushing to the need of the drafting of a written constitution.

Part of the course will be dedicated, in order to highlight from a practical point of view, the influence of the transition from the variety of the legal systems during ancient regime to the uniformity of the legal system of the codification, to the matter of the legal interpretation duly analysed by the most recent European doctrine.

During the course the professor will list the European case law that students shall analyse and discuss in class.

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 the tools needed to understand the rising problems, the innovative apparatuses linked to visual arts, critical thought, 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 behaviors (Luhmann; Habermas; Bourdieu; Foucault; Canetti; the Critical Legal Studies; the Law and Economics approach, and the approach that investigates the relation between law and gender studies)
The latter module will offer more specific tools: 1) The analysis of the symbolic functions of femininity, masculinity, and the satirical in the iconographical representations of law and justice – the same representations that accompanied the birth and the development of the modern State, contributing to the diffusion of the legal culture both into the society and the common sense; 2) The analysis of the conflict between right, law and social justice in the contemporary economic context characterized by globalization and financialization.

From the myth of Europe to the myth of European Union

The course program aims to historically focus on the "phenomenon" of Europe in its conceptual-ideological dimension and in the current political-institutional form of the European Union.
Europe is born from a myth: the rape of Europe by Zeus in the form of a bull that leads from the East to the West, in Greece where the first Mediterranean civilization flourishes, the Mycenaean one. Initially identified in Greece as an identity opposition to the Persian "barbarians", Europe over time assumes different forms with different traits (Roman Empire, Holy Roman Empire, Respublica Christiana, République des Lettres, etc.), opposing from time to time to to "barbarian" in turn, tearing himself into internal wars, conquering a cultural, scientific-technological, political and civil primacy, and finally becoming a "torch of civilization" in the non-European world to be civilized, or to be conquered. Eurocentrism, colonialism, imperialism on the one hand, nationalism, racism, totalitarianism on the other fall the civilization of Europe in the barbarism of two world wars and the moral defeat of the Holocaust.
After the Second World War Europe is reborn as the European Union, under the banner of peace, democracy and guarantee of subjective rights. But after the unsuccessful attempts to create a federation on the model of the United States, facing the crisis of values that compromise its existence and facing the centrifugal forces of Eurexit, the European Union returns to be a myth.

The Course is divided into two parts: a general part and a monographic part

1) General part: historical reconstruction of the idea of Europe, its identity and its civilization, which were formed and developed along an historical path that begins in ancient Greece and comes up to our days, when, under the pressure of Altiero Spinelli, takes shape politically and institutionally in the European Union under the banner of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

2) Monographic part: analysis of two "classical" texts on the formation of a united Europe
1. For the Perpetual Peace of Immanuel Kant
2. The Ventotene Manifesto by Altiero Spinelli and Ernesto Rossi

The program also includes the vision (in the classroom or in private, depending on the availability) of some very significant features related to the construction of European civilization
1. Agora (Alejandro Amenábar, 2009): the shadows of Europe: political theocracy and persecution
2. The Last Inquisitor (Milos Forman, 2006): the shadows of Europe: dogmatism and persecution
3. Dance Excelsior: the Europe of Progress
4. Germany Year Zero (Roberto Rossellini, 1948): the ruins of Europe
5. A New World - Altiero Spinelli and the United Europe (Alberto Negrìn, Rai 1 -13/12/2016): the reconstruction of Europe
6. The Hunting Party (Richard Shepard, 2007): the Europe of Law and Justice

1. F. Chabod, The idea of Europe, Laterza, 2007 (pp. 170)
2. G. Reale, Cultural and spiritual roots of Europe, Cortina, 2003 (pp. 160)
NB: the two texts are complementary

3. I. Kant, For the Perpetual Peace (any edition; pp. 30 ca.)
4. A. Spinelli and E. Rossi, The Ventotene Manifesto (downloadable from internet; pp. 30)
5. Charter of fundamental rights of the European Union (downloadable from internet)

The course provides the critical notions and tools for the study of the political history of the so-called "century of nationalities", indispensable for the understanding of contemporary Europe. It illustrates the establishment or reconstitution of the nation states in Central and Eastern Europe and the unification process of Germany and Italy. The analysis will embrace the whole "long nineteenth century" (from the French Revolution to the outbreak of the First World War).
Particular attention will be paid to the analysis of the revolutions of 1848, as well as to their premises and consequences. Necessary introduction to this analysis will be the discussion of the movements of "national rebirth" of a good part of the European peoples. Finally, the unification of Germany and Italy and the establishment of national states in Central and Eastern Europe will be addressed following the progressive crisis and then the collapse of the system of the great multiethnic empires (Austrian, Russian and Ottoman). The use of a comparative method will be continuous in order to find out common features of several national histories but also the peculiarities that differentiate them.

From the myth of Europe to the myth of European Union

The course program aims to historically focus on the "phenomenon" of Europe in its conceptual-ideological dimension and in the current political-institutional form of the European Union.
Europe is born from a myth: the rape of Europe by Zeus in the form of a bull that leads from the East to the West, in Greece where the first Mediterranean civilization flourishes, the Mycenaean one. Initially identified in Greece as an identity opposition to the Persian "barbarians", Europe over time assumes different forms with different traits (Roman Empire, Holy Roman Empire, Respublica Christiana, République des Lettres, etc.), opposing from time to time to to "barbarian" in turn, tearing himself into internal wars, conquering a cultural, scientific-technological, political and civil primacy, and finally becoming a "torch of civilization" in the non-European world to be civilized, or to be conquered. Eurocentrism, colonialism, imperialism on the one hand, nationalism, racism, totalitarianism on the other fall the civilization of Europe in the barbarism of two world wars and the moral defeat of the Holocaust.
After the Second World War Europe is reborn as the European Union, under the banner of peace, democracy and guarantee of subjective rights. But after the unsuccessful attempts to create a federation on the model of the United States, facing the crisis of values that compromise its existence and facing the centrifugal forces of Eurexit, the European Union returns to be a myth.

The Course is divided into two parts: a general part and a monographic part

1) General part: historical reconstruction of the idea of Europe, its identity and its civilization, which were formed and developed along an historical path that begins in ancient Greece and comes up to our days, when, under the pressure of Altiero Spinelli, takes shape politically and institutionally in the European Union under the banner of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

2) Monographic part: analysis of two "classical" texts on the formation of a united Europe
1. For the Perpetual Peace of Immanuel Kant
2. The Ventotene Manifesto by Altiero Spinelli and Ernesto Rossi

The program also includes the vision (in the classroom or in private, depending on the availability) of some very significant features related to the construction of European civilization
1. Agora (Alejandro Amenábar, 2009): the shadows of Europe: political theocracy and persecution
2. The Last Inquisitor (Milos Forman, 2006): the shadows of Europe: dogmatism and persecution
3. Dance Excelsior: the Europe of Progress
4. Germany Year Zero (Roberto Rossellini, 1948): the ruins of Europe
5. A New World - Altiero Spinelli and the United Europe (Alberto Negrìn, Rai 1 -13/12/2016): the reconstruction of Europe
6. The Hunting Party (Richard Shepard, 2007): the Europe of Law and Justice

2. G. Reale, Cultural and spiritual roots of Europe, Cortina, 2003 (pp. 160)

5. Charter of fundamental rights of the European Union (downloadable from internet)

The course takes as its focus the relationships between theories of human rights, concerned with guiding action, and theories about human rights, concerned with foundational questions. In particular the course examines the theory of autonomy, vulnerability, recognition and social justice by Axel Honneth. There is general agreement about the fact that liberal-democratic societies are based on normative principles, which require legal provisions to ensure that governments do not violate anyone’s fundamental rights. Yet, partially on account of the complexity of the ongoing overlapping global processes of integration, deregulation and reform, partially on account of the influence of anti-foundational critique (deconstruction; postmodernism; relativism), these widely accepted principles seem to have lost much of their original explanatory and prescriptive force. Against those who claimed that this problem consists in a mere temporal delay between philosophical investigation and practical application Honneth argued that more is needed than time, hope and persistence to transform theoretically developed principles of freedom and justice into guidelines for political action. In his view the normative principles at the hearth of the human rights discourse are formulated in a manner that prevents us from deriving guidelines for political action. The course will examine the ethical model provided by Honneth for the purpose of situating his theory of social justice as recognition in the analysis of the variety of historically determined institutional instances and practices that embody existentially significant claims to self-realization.
