SPS/03 - HISTORY OF POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS
Period
II semestre - sede Trento dal Feb 12, 2018 al May 31, 2018.
Learning outcomes
The course aims at acquiring knowledge on the origins, structure, mode of operation and change of modern political institutions
(Parliament and Government) of the Italian constitutional history during the 'long' nineteenth century (until 1914 and just beyond). The student will be led to reflect on the continuity and / or discontinuity lines traceable in the Italian history.
At the end of the course, the student will be able to: to know how it happened in our peninsula (and before in the Kingdom of
Sardinia) the transition from a form of absolute government to a constitutional; to have enough knowledge of the letter of the Albertine Statute and the extent to which its determinations remained at the basis of the constitutional (monarchical) form of government of the Italian Kingdom; to reconstruct the relationship between the parliamentary and the monarchical institution during the constitutional era; to understand the concrete functioning of the bicameral representative system of the Kingdom of Sardinia before and then of the Kingdom of Italy; to understand the importance of the electoral system as the cornerstone of a political system.
