Course context for academic year 2024-25

The aim of this course is to make students aware of the importance of the law as a regulatory system for social relations, since we are dealing with a branch of the legal system that focuses on the study of the individuals. Likewise, it is also intended that the student understands the system of sources of our legal system and acquires a systematic vision of the main expressions of private autonomy. Its existence in the Degree in Law is justified by the student's need to know the main institutions that integrate the Law of the Person, such as the capacity, the personality rights, or the different civil statuses and their meaning, having special relevance the situation of minors and disabled people and the study of the tutelary institutions. In addition to the natural person, the concept and types of legal persons are addressed in an attempt to give an in-depth view of their forms of organization. For the reasons just mentioned, this course serves as an introduction to the subjects of Law of Obligations and Contracts, Rights in Rem and Mortgages, Family and Inheritance Law, Law of Torts and Consumer Law, where different legal relationships are generated in which the person is the backbone.
