Public Economic Law and Public Contracts Law
A.Y. 2023/2024
Learning objectives
The course aims at exploring the general principles regarding public action within the economy, addressing the framework that governs it, taking into account the role of administrative powers in affecting economic activities, as well as the main public and private actors. We will therefore deal with the tools through which public intervention is carried out, with particular reference to the economic regulation of network services, the legal status of the infrastructure and the regulatory framework pertaining to the market. Finally, we will focus our attention on public services and, albeit with regard to its main features, to the sector of public contracts
Expected learning outcomes
The course is aimed at examining the intervention of public administrations within the economy. At the end of the course, having a thorough knowledge of the basics of Public Law and Economics, the student will be able to outline the functioning of the relevant legal framework, as well as the means through which public intervention is carried out. On this basis, the student will be able to critically and autonomously evaluate the main regulatory provisions, framing the relevant legal concepts within the national and supranational level.
