Economics

The course aims to provide the student with a cultural dimension and a series of technical tools essential both for a concrete and current understanding of the legal problem and, more generally, for a realistic knowledge of the economic and social aspects of the contemporary world. The course therefore aims to provide an introductory conceptual system to the fundamental questions concerning the organization and functioning of modern economic systems. The emphasis is on the need for a critical orientation in the examination of the various problems and on the methodological need to have some simple, but rigorous, tools for analysis of reality.
More precisely, the course aims to provide students with the basic notions of micro-economics and macro-economics so that they will be able to:
- acquire knowledge and understand the mechanisms underlying the economic agents' choices in the different markets and the economic rules for the functioning of a national economy;
- apply this knowledge and understanding in the solution of simple economic problems:
- analyze, evaluate and comment in a conscious and critical way, with autonomy of judgement, the main micro and macroeconomic facts, through the knowledge and the competences acquired;
- develop communication skills, participating with awareness and language ownership in the debate proposed in the classroom on the economic problems that will be stimulated by the teacher during the discussion of any topics;
- finally, through the knowledge of the course program, develop their learning skills in relation to the study of both other economic disciplines and juridical disciplines.

- Knowledge and understanding skills: the students will develop knowledge and will have to demonstrate understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the choices of economic operators in the different markets and the economic rules for the functioning of a national economy;
- Application skills: during the frontal lessons will be offered the possibility to apply knowledge and understanding through the proposal of simple and practical economic problems that will be solved in the classroom with the involvement of the students;
- Autonomy of judgment: the student, through the knowledge and competences acquired, will then be able to analyze, evaluate and comment in a conscious and critical way, with autonomy of judgment, the main micro and macroeconomic facts, as well as news and reports on economics presented by the media;
- Communicative skills: the student will have to develop communication skills by participating with awareness and language properties in the debate proposed in the classroom on economic issues. This ability must, however, emerge during the written evaluation;
- Learning skills: knowledge of the proposed program will enable students to develop their learning capacities in relation to the study both of other economic and legal disciplines
