授業の目的　【英語】
Goals of the Course

This course is aimed to look at legal issues from a cross-cultural, comparative and pluralistic perspective. The course will comprise both a theoretical explanation of the field and its historical evolution, but will largely focus on contemporary and highly debated themes like legal pluralism, dispute resolution and access to justice, human rights, cultural defense. Notions like “law”, “justice”, “sanction”, etc. will be analyzed in context, to show students that the idea of law as merely legal order imposed from the State could be limiting if not misleading. Most of the course will be centered about instructor-administered debates among students.
