Programme

The course aims at providing a good knowledge of the main aspects of the European Union integration. The course is divided into two parts: the first part takes into account the general framework of the European integration, including EU basic structure and principles, with particular reference to the legal system after the Lisbon Treaty; the second part gives an account of the development of the Internal Market of the European Union. Both parts will be integrated with a comprehensive analysis of the ECJ leading cases.
