The course aims at illustrating, through a critical approach, the long journey of European and Western legal history between the Late Antique and the Modern Period. Starting from a description of the social, political and economic context, the legal institutions will be analyzed in their historical dimension, focusing the attention on legislation, on jurisprudence, and on the effects they had on case law.
The main educational goals are:
1) To make students aware of the complexity of legal phenomena, which cannot be isolated from the social, political and economic context.
2) To verify the assumption according to which law is a product of history.
3) To invite students to problematize the study of legal disciplines.
