Contents	The general part of the course is dedicated to the presentation of the main legal and philosophical doctrines, to the exploration of the anthropological origins of law, its relationships with related disciplines (ethics and politics in particular), as well as its structure and essential functions, especially procedural one. The monographic section focuses on the main legal issues of bioethics at the beginning and end of human life.

Educational objectives	The lessons will aim at training the learners of a reflective and critical focus on law, which places legal institutions in their historical context and deepens them in their philosophical and anthropological substratum. The acquisition of essential information about the historical development of theoretical reflection on law will be accompanied by the in-depth study of a specific philosophical method, which from anthropology proceeds to the theoretical foundation of legal institutions (law and right first and foremost). Of general validity, this method will then find specific application on two crucial sides due to their importance and relevance: the trial, first of all, and the biolaw as a response to the challenges of biotechnology.
Prerequisites	General knowledge of Western history and thought. In general, to understand and successfully complete the course, students must possess a general understanding of the environmental context and the organization of the territory, both physically and in terms of human presence. These prerequisites are required for both attending and non-attending students.
Teaching methods	Frontal teaching (possible use of slides and videos).
Other information	Further in-depth texts and documents will be indicated in class and, where possible, made available on Unistudium, with the possibility for those attending to substitute or supplementary readings.
Learning verification modality	Oral exam, possible final written self-assessment test on the entire program in preparation for the exam (open-ended questions). In the event that the student intends to bring forward the exam to a year prior to the year programmed in the study plan, if this is allowed in relation to any prerequisites, it is recommended to attend the cycle of lectures and to take the exam in the first available session after the lessons have been completed. completed, thus respecting the semester of the course.
Extended program	The course will present the main topics and problems of the subject in a perspective which, as the choice of texts illustrates, does not want to be merely descriptive or historiographic but strictly philosophical, and therefore reflective and critical. This will not prevent thoughtful forays into the thinking of some authors, although the approach is predominantly thematic. The monographic part will explore in the perspective of the illustrated philosophy of law some central biolegal questions.
