Learning outcomes

The course is included in the learning area on Law, New Technologies, and Sustainability. The course aims to provide students with advanced knowledge of the complex relationship between law, environment and sustainability with a focus on ecosystems integrity and social justice. Such relationship will be analysed in a twofold perspective: public law rules and procedures and their actual application, on the one side; employment protection and social sustainability articulated along the interactions between law, new technologies and fundamental rights (consumer and labour rights) in the context of selected supply chains (agricultural, logistics and gig economy) and company networks.
By the end of the course students will have acquired understanding of the concept of sustainability as it results from different regulatory perspectives, that integrate, according to multilevel and transnational logics, into the legal approach to sustainability. Students will also be able to solve actual problems using a ‘compliance’ and ‘conflict-preventing’ approach. Work in groups and written assignments based on Problem Based Solving (PBS) methods will provide students with the ability to assess the implications of the regulatory framework, develop appropriate reasoning and terminology, and formulate independent judgments. The teaching method is aimed at improving continuous learning skills.

Program

MODULE 1 - Environmental Law
The module aims to provide students with an understanding of the complex issues related to the administrative function of environmental protection, with particular attention to procedural aspects and the issues of air pollution and climate change.
In particular, the ways in which the interest in environmental protection is combined with other interests and the role played by society, environmental associations and other institutional actors in administrative decisions (assessments, authorisations, certifications) are analysed.

The distance learning lessons (1 CFU, 6 hours) (prerequisites) are devoted to the following topics:
- The administration and its activity
- Administrative procedure

In-presence lectures (5 CFU, 30 hours) are devoted to the following topics:
- The legal framework: the sources of environmental law
- Environmental administration: organisational profiles
- Environmental risk assessment
- Procedures: environmental assessments (EIA and SEA)
- Air pollution and combating climate change: functions and procedures
In the final part of the course, three dedicated focuses are organised with the support of the PBS (problem based solving) methodology:
- Focus and in-depth study of the sources of environmental law (PBS)
- Focus on and in-depth study of environmental assessments (PBS)
- Focus on and in-depth study of air pollution procedures (PBS)

MODULE 2 - Labour protection and global value chains
The module aims to provide students with an advanced knowledge of the relationship between law and environment and sustainability in the complex meaning of ecosystem integrity, economic efficiency and social equity. In particular, the protection of labour, the focus of social sustainability, will be analysed in the relationship between law and technologies and fundamental rights of people (consumers and workers) in the selected production chains (agriculture, logistics, gig economy) and networked enterprises.

The distance learning lessons (1 CFU, 6 hours) (prerequisites) are devoted to the following topics:
- The identification of the rules applicable to the employment relationship
- The collective agreement.

The in-presence lectures (5 CFU, 30 hours) are devoted to the following topics:
- Labour protection, value chains and social sustainability
- Employers, supply chains and platforms
- Perspectives on supranational regulation between hard and soft law
- The responses of national legal systems
- What role for collective bargaining? (the supply chain contract)
- Corporate social responsibility and multi-stakeholder accountability mechanisms
In the final part of the course, three dedicated focuses will be organised with the support of PBS (problem based solving) methodologies:
- Focus and in-depth study of labour protection in agriculture (PBS)
- Focus and in-depth study of labour protections for digital platforms (PBS)
- Focus and in-depth study of labour protection in logistics (PBS)

Both courses combine lectures for 30 hours (supported by the use of PowerPoint presentations) with group exercises organised according to the Problem Based Solving (PBS) method. At the end of the course, the presentation of the in-depth papers and the final discussion are organised.
