The course aims to provide students with the knowledge they need to interpret the effects of digitalisation on the administrative system, with particular reference to some of the areas concerning the activities and organisation of public administrations in respect of which significant interpretative issues have arisen. The examination of concrete cases, together with the analysis of the theoretical and regulatory framework of reference, will enable students to acquire the skills needed to hypothesise sustainable solutions to the complex problems that the use of digitalisation is posing to administrative law.
