- The course aims, based on the most recent methodological acquisitions of comparative analysis, to develop:
- the ability to orient oneself in multilevel systems, that is, characterized by the pluralism of orders, rules and interpretations;
- critical knowledge of the various taxonomies of private law in order to evaluate their historical relativity and the objectives that have been reached in other systems with their use;
- the way in which similarities and differences have been outlined and what the strategies and ideological projects of such legal discourses can be. - Prerequisites
- For the study of comparative private law it is essential to a sound understanding of the institutions of Private law.
- Teaching methods
- frontal classes; seminars; tests
- Other information
- attendance is not mandatory but strongly recommended
- Learning verification modality
- The final test consists of an oral exam, aimed at assessing, alongside the knowledge of the legal data, the logical-legal skills and the technique of the legal language. The duration of the exam varies according to the progress of the questions.
- Extended program
- The aim of the course is the study of those elements, explicit and implicit, that characterize the various
legal traditions (operational rules, conceptual structures, relevant classifications, techniques
arguments, representations of identities), of their diffusion on a global scale, of
modalities of their circulation and their redistributive effects with respect to individuals and groups in the
different geographical areas.
The course is structured in such a way as to combine the classic forms of the so-called frontal teaching, a
more seminar-like approach, during which cases will be presented, analyzed and discussed
and materials in order to bring students closer to styles and languages ¿¿typical of different experiences
legal, to encourage the discussion of the various aspects of the course, both between teacher and students, and between
students themselves, to think about the use of the concepts and legal instruments presented and
stimulate the problematization of cases and materials by students.
The course will be dedicated to individual institutions (property, contract, civil liability) and problems
(legal personality, patrimonial responsibility, credit guarantee) of private law in the
development of the different legal traditions and their diffusion beyond the European borders during the
different phases that have marked modern and contemporary law.
Particular attention will be paid to the way in which comparative law has contributed in these
phases, to the redefinition of the global space of its borders, not only through phenomena of
inclusion and exclusion, but also through the creation of zones of hybridization to the respective ones
borders.
