Content
An introductory course in canon law from a theological perspective, challenged by a pragmatic ecclesiology. A theology of canon law based on a commentary on De omnium christifidelium obligationibus et iuribus (Codex 1983).

This course will be the occasion for brief introductory excursuses :
  • The importance of history for canon law
  • Major conceptual elements: the main areas of contemporary canon law
  • The Code of Canon Law 1983: conception and structure
  • Theologies of canon law: between law, pastoral care and theology
Teaching methods
Teaching is based on a portfolio of readings.
Some PPT presentations and video clips complete the program.
Evaluation methods
A series of exercises, questions and suggested essays complete the course. Each student must successfully complete a sufficient number of these to validate the course. Failing this, a final written exam will be required, the size of which will depend on whether or not the student has already completed the series of exercises.
