Learning objectives
The aim of the course is the acquisition of the knowledge necessary to critically examine the legal issues concerning the EU immigration and asylum policy, the status of migrants and displaced subjects, as well as their fundamental rights and duties. Even though the main focus will be the European Union legal order, the analysis will be carried out in the light of the intertwining between the national level, on the one hand, and the international law, on the other, with special attention to the European Convention on Human Rights. The course will give a broad overview of migration studies and contemporary challenges within the field, combining legal, a theoretical and a practical approach and covering the role of governmental and intergovernmental institutions (as well as NGOs) in national and international refugee work, considering in particular the problematic issues arisen during the most recent migration crises.
Prerequisites and basic notions
