CURRENT CHALLENGES IN EU LAW: MIGRATION AND ENVIRONMENT AS TEST CASES
The course will be taught by Professor Luisa Antoniolli, professor of European law from University of Trento
The course will be taught in two parts; it will be started by an introductory on-line class on 18 April in order to present the topics, discuss the working method and assign the projects to students. The course will then continue with a block of classes during the week from 20 to 23 May 2024.
Since the beginning of the 2000s, a number of crises (some of which internal to Europe, others coming from the external context), have challenged and significantly modified the European Union, forcing important changes, but also putting its development at risk, in particular of a backsliding of the integration process and a systemic change of its institutional framework and balance.
The aim of the seminars is to analyze the effects of these crisis in two crucial EU policies, migration and environmental protection, which have significantly expanded over the last decades, but are currently experiencing several challenges (legal, political, economic and social), both at the European level, inside the Member States and in the global context in which the EU operates.
