Learning Objectives
The course will introduce to the principles of welfare economics, market regulation and cost benefit analysis applied to the evaluation of laws and legal risk. The course follows the idea that each public intervention to regulate markets needs the introduction of a norm and the knowledge of cost benefit analysis and evaluation techniques is fundamental to understand the impact of this norm.
In particular the course aims to:
1. teach the role of the State in modern economies and the reasons behind public intervention;
2. teach the role of economic evaluation in order to understand the impact of legislation;
3. teach the principle of cost benefit analysis;
4. teach the principle of legal risk assessment.
Program
The course program is the following.
1. Principle of welfare economics
2. Legal impact assessment and Cost Benefit analysis principles
3. Risk and uncertainty
6. Legal risk assessment

- Assessment
The knowledge, understanding and ability to communicate (learning achievements) are assessed with a written exam with open questions. For each demand the learning achievements required will be evaluated with a four level scale (insuff., suff., good, excellent). The final evaluation will be translated in a scale of ranging from 18 to 30/30. After having passed the written exam students can accept the evaluation or attempt an oral examination to modify the final result.
- 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.
