By taking the Covid crisis as the main theme of the course, this course aims to introduce students of the bachelor's degree in information and communication, political science (general orientation) and sociology and anthropology to a minimal, but precise and rigorous, understanding of the 'fundamentals' of public law, both in its institutional dimension and in its 'fundamental rights' aspects.
In so doing, the aim is not only to provide students with a critical reading of current events, but also to equip them, more broadly and sustainably, with legal decoders capable of clarifying, in law, questions that they would be confronted with from their respective disciplines and/or as citizens, by inviting them to sort out the problems they address and to perceive that the legal response is rarely black or white, borrowing rather from the palette of greys. The fact remains that in law, we call a spade a spade, and that one of the functions of the lawyer is to try to bring order to what, at first sight, may appear nebulous.
