The course deals with the theme of public intervention in the economy and the profound transformations that have affected the subject, mainly driven by European law. The relations between enterprises and public institutions are illustrated with a legal approach, with regard to the constitutional principles that guide economic relations, the structures of government of the economy, the organizational forms of public companies, and the regulatory and control powers, as they have emerged following the liberalization and privatization reforms of the main public utilities.
