Learning objectives
The legal clinic introduces students to two core concepts of constitutional theory - democracy and the rule of law - showing their multifaceted and complex nature, how they intersect in constitutionalism, and how they relate to other important constitutional principles like federalism, separation of powers, protection of minorities, etc. The legal clinic also explores contexts in which democracy and the rule of law evolve, including challenges brought by illiberal regimes and globalization.
Expected learning outcomes
At the end of the course, students should have developed a broad understanding of the rule of law and democracy, as well as a comparative and critical vision of constitutionalism.
