Learning outcomes

The course focuses on the interaction between criminal proceedings’ institutes and the European principles and rules, with special attention to the effects of the criminal judicial cooperation in the Euro-EU area. The class aims at providing students with the necessary assessment tools for the understanding of the process’ dynamics most closely connected with the practice of legal professions in the European and international framework. Students shall also acquire the necessary skills for the operational use of the institutions of criminal judicial cooperation, to examine and resolve - at an advanced level - the legal issues emerging in this area. Students will be also expected to develop the necessary critical-argumentative and communication skills to cope with the legal issues arising in the application area, also as a consequence of the rich and now inevitable regulatory production both in Europe (regulations, directives) and in the domestic system (legislative implementation).
