Main themes The topics chosen for the advanced study of public international law are determined annually by the professor according to the current international legal issues (specific conflicts, new case-law or institutions...). They may, where appropriate, go beyond the framework of public international law strictly speaking in order to highlight the close relation between this discipline and international private law (nationalization, jurisdiction, investment).
Aims The aim of this course is that students master the fundamental rules of public international law in relation to selected issues in contemporary practice. Students should be able to highlight the political issues that may be related to those legal rules and the practical difficulties that may arise from their enforcement. This course is part of a coherent cluster. The different professors in charge of a course in the framework of this cluster consult each other on the content and the methods of each course in order to ensure complementarity. The course is based on participatory teaching methods (learning through projects or problems, review of the relevant case-law and doctrine, debates with guest speakers, field studies ...) which allow the students to develop independently a critical, forward-looking and inventive look on public international law. Students are encouraged to participate and to get involved in learning, which has both an individual and a collective dimension.
