Program
Theories of partisan agency: from Carl Schmitt to Luigi Meneghello
Recently historians have identified in a democracy from below, understood as lived experience and not only as planned form of political organization, the original feature of Italian partisan self-government during Second World War (1943-45), and in the partisan ‘banda’ an unheard of form of consituent power. A power intended to institute a new constitutional order in the political vacuum that followed 8th September 1943. Democracy, freedom, participation and autonomy are some of the aspects that characterize this experience and that will shape the Constitution of the Italian Republic (Filippetta, 2018, 125). The course aims at reflecting upon this constituent experience of freedom through the analysis of some attempts, philosophical and literary, of theorizing partisan agency in Europe.

Examination Methods
Oral exam. Every student is asked to prepare in depth a specific topic among those analyzed during the lectures. This will constitute the starting point of the examination, around which the discussion on the whole program can develop.
For attending students there will be the possibility to prepare oral presentations to give in class on agreed upon topics that can be arranged at the beginning of the course. Such presentations will be evaluated and will constitute a 30% of the overall evaluation during the oral exam
