- Contents
- The course explores the new challenges of the technological age by analyzing its socio-cultural and anthropological premises and focusing on its main consequences in the regulatory sphere (ethics, law, professional ethics). The sociological part, after a quick historical excursus, reflects on the forensic professions in a teleological and deontological perspective.

- After the analysis of the remote and proximate causes of the emergence of technological civilization (with reflections on the concept of civilization and culture, as well as on that of technique and technology), the course will try to develop a critical reading on progress related to computerization and the diffusion of the so-called artificial intelligence in the various sectors of individual and social life; finally, a critical analysis of the repercussions of these developments in the field of legal professions and their ethics will be proposed. It is on this last part that the learning commitment of the students of Sociology of Law (Jurisprudence) will have to focus, based on the indications that will be provided during the lessons.
