Course context for academic year 2017-18

“Public International Law” is a compulsory subject delivered during the second semester in year 2 of the Public Management and Administration Degree Programme. The subject, together with Constitutional Law and Administrative Law, constitutes the Public Law block. Compulsory subject “European Union Law”, in year 4, is its sequel, to be delivered jointly by the Area of Public International Law and International Relations and the Constitutional Law Area. “Public International Law” intends to present the complexity of the international legal order, characterized by its decentralized nature unlike internal orders.
