Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

International Constitutional Law (ICL) as a legal discipline combines constitutional law, public international law, European law and legal theory. The course will focus on Migration within a multilevel constitutional reality. The relevant questions and problems will be exemplified and discussed through selected case studies.

Assessment and permitted materials

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The course serves as preparatory course for the NICLAS - Summer School 2011 (univie.ac.at/niclas). However, participation in the preparatory course is open to other interested students. At an academic level students shall learn to understand constitutions in their historic but in particular in their contemporary context and learn to question constitutional concepts instead of accepting them as sacrosanct.

Examination topics

Introduction to ICL; Introduction to Migration from a historical, political and human rights' perspective; preparation and presentation of case-studies related to the NICLAS 2011 topic "Migration" by participants (group work), interactive discussions.
