Content
The objective of this course is the analysis of constitutional, juridical, administrative and European jurisprudence relating to the rights and liberties, by emphasizing the constitutional and international foundations, as well as the reasoning methods of the judge. The course continues the courses of constitutional law and public law. It claims to be interdisciplinary, opening to a transverse approach of law. The course will be primarily based on court decisions and doctrinal commentaries. A particular methodological teaching will be applied to the training of reading and to the critical approach of the jurisprudence. Each student will compose a personal file on a jurisprudence of his choice, of which he/she will make a critical analysis. This file will to some extent be part of the evaluation.
