- Oral exam: the oral exam is intended to test the students' knowledge of the subject and their ability to deal with the main legal questions raised by transnational migration (as indicated in the program). The oral exam also aims to test students' ability to show language skills and clarity.
Attending students may be asked to write a short paper (up to 10 pages, eg texts, comments, case notes, etc.) during the course, which will be discussed and evaluated during the final exam. - Extended program
- In the first part of the course, some fundamental concepts useful to the knowledge of comparative public law will be addressed; in particular, those concepts and legal institutions that are most effective in studying transnational migration law and the legal condition of foreigners will be privileged, such as:
- object and method of comparative law;
- classification of legal systems and concept of "legal family";
- sources of law in Western legal systems (in particular in the European Union);
- Constitution and constitutionalism; forms of State;
- fundamental rights and freedoms;
- Comparative Constitutional Justice.
The second part will address some of the major legal issues raised by transnational migration, with particular reference to the European context. Although the analysis of the Italian case will be privileged, the comparative perspective adopted during the course will identify the main trends and models in managing migration and protecting the fundamental rights of migrant foreigners.
In particular, some aspects of legal discipline of cultural and religious diversity will be addressed, with regard to both the theoretical framework of the different policies on managing cultural and religious pluralism and the analysis of relevant case studies (e.g. religious symbols in public spaces; background and tools of intercultural law; religious-based ADR and parallel jurisdictions).
