Learning Objectives

The course aims at the study and understanding of the evolution of Political Institutions between the national and international dimensions in the contemporary age, with a special focus on the historical development of the multi-lateral dimension of government. 

The course is ideally divided into three distinct but complementary parts: a first general part of methodological and historical-thematic framework on constitutionalism in Europe between the 19th and 20th centuries, and a second part dedicated to an in-depth study of key words in the History of Political Institutions. The final part of the course will be devoted to an in-depth study of the evolution of the International System and of the main international bodies active in the multilateral field, particularly after the collapse of the Berlin Wall.
