The main aim of course is acquisition of advanced skills to observation and critical analysis of legal phenomenon. These skills can be gained by tackling the big issues on the original root of human and societal law.

The main educational aims are: 1) understanding the complex dimension of Otherness, as the first component of social bond; 2) understanding the original relationship between law and social bond.

On this basis, further objective will be the acquisition by students of the ability to discuss on the juridicité taking into account the concepts of limen and measure.

In the course of Philosophy of Law II we intend to observe how the law assumes a central role in the context of human relationships, in order to make them stable and peaceful. It is to understand how the law is, from the outset of Western society, the privileged place of construction and 'maintenance' of social bond, the place where roles are structured, functions defined and the aims of people fixed.

An ample space will be devoted specifically to the analysis of Otherness.

A specific program will affect students who attend lessons, which will be introduced to the field of research known as Law and Humanities.

There is no obligation of prerequisites to access the course. However, the approach to the matter could be easier for the student who had already supported his examinations in philosophy of the law I.

Learning outcomes:

a) obtain basic skills for development of ideas and original applications in the philosophical and sociological research context, beginning with the acquisition of an appropriate cultural sensitivity and an adequate methodology to develop an autonomous critic ability with the aim to observe the cultural phenomena beyond the applicants ideological simplifications (Knowledge and understanding);

b) demonstrate ability to solve theoretical and applied problems in interdisciplinary contexts relating to the fields listed above, including through participation in workshops and study groups (Applying knowledge patience and understanding);

c) demonstrate ability to integrate their own knowledge and making judgments in theoretical situations or complex practices relating to the areas listed above, which will be expressed through active participation in discussions with the teacher and among students themselves, in particular during workshops and seminars (Making judgments);

d) demonstrate ability to communicate the acquired knowledge in a clear, essential and scientifically correct shape (Communication);

e) demonstrate ability to develop their own learning with autonomy and critical sense. This ability will be encouraged during the entire course by the teacher and will be evaluated on examination (Learning skills).

Course books

T. Greco, Diritto e legame sociale, Giappichelli, Torino 2012. 

F. Jullien, Contro la comparazione. Lo 'scarto' e il 'tra'. Un altro accesso all'alterità, Mimemis, Milano 2014.

Assessment

At the end of lectures, it is expected a optional examination only reserved to students attending. It consists in a written test - weighing 6 credits - and focuses on the topics covered during the course.

Students who do not wish to make use of this form of verification can take the exam by an interview.

Test and Interview appear as a form of exam more suitable to check the degree of maturation reached by the student not only in the learning of books, but also in referring to Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors).

Disabilità e DSA

Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno registrato la certificazione di disabilità o la certificazione di DSA presso l'Ufficio Inclusione e diritto allo studio, possono chiedere di utilizzare le mappe concettuali (per parole chiave) durante la prova di esame.

A tal fine, è necessario inviare le mappe, due settimane prima dell’appello di esame, alla o al docente del corso, che ne verificherà la coerenza con le indicazioni delle linee guida di ateneo e potrà chiederne la modifica.
