Course description
The Course aims at giving a general overview of the juridical system which regulates international relations. Firstly, the institutional profiles of International law are examined, in particular: its foundational principles, the subjects (in particular the States and the international organizations), the sources (customs, treaties and other types of sources), the adaptation of internal orders to International Law, the peaceful settlement of disputes mechanisms, the unlawful act and the law of responsibility. The Course will then deal with some essential aspects of the subject matter: sovereignty, the use of force, international cooperation in several fields of action with reference to the work of relevant international organizations. Particular attention will be given to the condition of the individual according to international law, especially with reference to human rights protection, as well as the most recent relevant developments such as international criminal justice, environmental protection and development.
