IUS/11 - ECCLESIASTICAL AND CANON LAW

Period

2nd lecture period (2B) dal Apr 3, 2023 al May 23, 2023.

Learning objectives

The course aims at providing the students with tools that are necessary to learn and analyse the two-thousand years old legal order of the Catholic Church. Despite its strong originality in comparison to the world of the secular laws, the law of the Church has played a significant role in the creation and the development of the European legal culture; many institutions and many solutions of the juridical problems adopted by States laws are derived from the canonical models.
At the end of the course the student will be able:
- to know and understand the fundamental principles, institutes and rules of canon law;
- to evaluate essential profiles of comparison between the law of the Church and secular legal systems, both in historical evolution and in current legislation;
- to know how to set up practical issues of relationships between the rules of canon law and the rules of secular legal systems.
