Programme

The course will first of all focus on the methodology of intercultural translation of situations to be legally qualified characterized by so-called 'cultural and religious diversity'. The course will adopt an interdisciplinary methodology and will integrate legal hermeneutic approach with analytical skills derived from anthropology and semiotics. The transmission of intercultural legal competence will be managed through constant reference to the application to specific case laws of the normative tools provided by legal systems. Particular attention, in this sense, will be paid in relation to the institutional and professional figures as the judge, the lawyer and the notary.
