INTRODUCTION What is ECTS? The European Community promotes inter-university co-operation as a means for improving the quality of education to the benefit of students and higher education institutions alike. Student mobility constitutes a primary feature of that co-operation. The Erasmus+ programme clearly demonstrates that a study period abroad can constitute a particularly precious experience, not only being the best way to discover countries, ideas, languages and cultures different from one's own but also because it is gaining a growing importance in the evolution of university and professional careers. The creation of a single European area in the field of education, where students and teachers can move freely without barriers, goes upon the recognition of the studies undertaken and the qualifications achieved abroad. For this reason ECTS - the English acronym for the European Community Course Credit Transfer System - was born, originally as a master plan within the framework of the previous Erasmus programme, with the aim of promoting academic recognition of studies undertaken abroad. The European Commission decided to include ECTS in the Socrates programme, in particular within Sector I reserved to higher education (Erasmus), given the conclusive effectiveness of the ECTS system. After the first stage planned for a limited application, ECTS is now becoming much more meaningful to the extent of becoming a permanent feature of the European context of higher education. ECTS is above all pursuing transparency, establishing the conditions necessary to bring institutions closer together and broadening the range of choices offered to students. Its application facilitates the recognition of students' academic results through to the use of widely understood standards - credits and grades - as well as a better understanding of the national systems of higher education. ECTS goes upon three basic elements: 1) Information on study plans and student results, 2) Reciprocal agreement (between the participating institutions and the student) and 3) The use of ECTS credits (values representing the working load done by the student). Principal Features of ECTS ECTS is thus founded upon three basic elements: information on study plans and student results, reciprocal agreement (between the participating institutions and the student) and the use of ECTS credits (values representing the workload done by the student). These three basic elements are effective through three fundamental documents: 1) The information brochure, 2) The application form/learning agreement and 3) The transcript of records, as to the studies done. But the essential aspect is that ECTS is activated by the students, the teachers and the institutions which intend to make studying abroad a whole part of the learning experience. Indeed, ECTS does not, in any way, determine the contents, the structure or the equivalence of study programmes. These qualitative aspects must be decided upon directly by the higher education institutions in the moment of setting, either through bilateral or multilateral agreements, the basis for a viable co- 4

operation. The code of good practice proposed by ECTS offers the interested parties the tools suitable to pursue transparency and academic recognition. Full academic recognition is a sine qua non condition of student mobility within the framework of the Erasmus+ programme. Full academic recognition requires the period of study abroad (including exams and other forms of evaluation) to effectively substitute a comparable period of study (including exams and other forms of assessment) in the institution of origin notwithstanding the fact that there may be differences in the contents of the programme. ECTS goes on voluntary use and reciprocal trust at academic level among the participating institutions. Every institution chooses its own partners. Transparency ECTS guarantees transparency through the following instruments: ECTS credits, - a numerical value assigned to a course unit which represent the working load that a student must undertake in order to complete a given course unit. The credits express the quantity of work every course unit requires with respect to the global volume of work necessary to successfully complete a full year's study at the institution, that is: lectures, practical work, seminars, traineeships, research or surveys, personal study - either at home or in the library - together with exams and other forms of student assessment. ECTS is, therefore, based on the overall working load of the student and not merely limited to lecture hours. 60 credits represent the working load for a full academic year's study and, as a rule, 30 credits are equivalent to a semester and 20 credits to a trimester. The ECTS information brochure, which provides useful information to students and personnel about the institutions, departments, course organisation and structure as well as the individual course units. The ECTS learning agreement, which describes the study plan the student has to follow and indicates the ECTS credits that shall grant upon satisfactory completion thereof. The agreement binds the student to attend the host university's programme as the main part of their higher education, the institution of origin to guarantee the student full academic recognition of the credits obtained abroad and, the host institution to provide the agreed course units to the extent allowed by the academic calendar. The ECTS transcript of records, which presents the student's academic results in a clear, complete and comprehensible manner for each part and which must be easily transferable from one institution to another. To facilitate the academic recognition of the studies undertaken or completed abroad, good communication and flexibility are required. In this regard the ECTS co-ordinators carry out a fundamental role monitoring the academic and administrative aspects of ECTS. As a rule, it is necessary to make available to the students the entire range of course units of the department that implements ECTS, including those units relating to postgraduate studies. The students must be able to attend regular courses - and not especially set up for them - and must be given the opportunity to satisfy the demands of the host institution giving an academic qualification. Reliance on ECTS credits guarantees the organisation of programmes, which are reasonable in terms of working load for the period of study abroad. For instance, 120 ECTS credits for a year require a student to work twice as hard as an average student whose plan is 60 credits. At the same time, 30 ECTS credits for a year period correspond to a part-time studying. 5

ECTS, moreover, allows students to continue their studies abroad. In fact, it can happen that once the original study period is over the student may not wish to return to their original institution but may instead prefer to remain in the host institution - possibly to graduate from there - or move on to a third institution. Such decision may not be taken without the agreement of all institutions involved which in any case have to set the conditions to fulfil in order to graduate from the host institution or transfer to a third institution. The ECTS certificate is a chronology of the student's academic record and it can constitute a particularly useful instrument for the institutions to manage such a decision. 6

EDUCATION IN ITALY Until 1989 (Law 168/1989) the entire Italian educational system was under the Ministry of Education. At that time the Ministry of Universities and Scientific Research was created to take over the responsibilities of university education and scientific and technological research. The two entities are currently encompassed under the organisational designation Ministero dell Istruzione, dell Università e della Ricerca - MIUR (Ministry of Education, University and Research). Information for foreign students can be found at www.study-in-italy.it ). PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION Cycles Following the 2003 Reform of primary and secondary education, the Italian school system has been reorganised as follows: First cycle Primary education: 5 years of schooling beginning at age 6; Secondary education (first degree): 3 years of schooling beginning at age 11. Second cycle Secondary education (second degree): 5 years of schooling beginning at age 14. The higher secondary schools are of various types: classical, scientific, linguistic, artistic, technical and vocational studies as well as teacher training. At the end of the 5-year course, students take the examination to obtain the Diploma di Maturità in the specialised area they have chosen. This diploma grants admission to an Italian university. Grading System Until 1968, secondary school grading was on a scale of 0-10, 6 being the minimum passing grade. From 1969 to 1999, final marks were on a scale of 0-60, 36 being the minimum passing grade. Since 2000 a different system has been implemented: final marks are on a scale of 0-100 and the minimum passing grade is 60. UNIVERSITY EDUCATION Admission Admission to Italian universities grants only to holders of a Diploma di maturità from an Italian secondary school. Foreign students, or Italian students from secondary schools abroad, are admitted on the strength of equivalent qualifications. There are no limitations on admission except in Medical School (medicine, dentistry, veterinary), in private independent universities (like LUISS Guido Carli or Bocconi in Milan), and in newly established universities/degree courses. Grading System In the university grading system, individual courses grade on a scale of 18-30. The maximum final grade is 110, after the dissertation of a thesis on a free topic. For very brilliant students the degree may be awarded cum laude. < 18 = fail 18/23 = sufficient 24/26 = satisfactory 27/28 = 29/30 = Very good 30 e lode = Excellent 7

good Academic Qualifications and Degrees 1. University Diploma This is a first-level university qualification for courses lasting 3 years. For admission to these courses, students must have a Diploma di Maturità. 2. Laurea (Degree) The system of university study in Italy has undergone an overall reform in terms of structure and teaching system. Up to 2001, to obtain a Laurea, the basic university degree, used to take 4 to 6 years, depending on the field of study. From the academic year 2001/2002, universities have adopted three study cycles. The first cycle, three years in length, is characterised by a professional training type content and concludes with the award of a first-level degree (Laurea Triennale Bachelor Degree); the second cycle, lasting two years, concludes with the award of a secondlevel Master s degree (Laurea Magistralis Master s Degree); while the third cycle, lasting from one to three years, leads to the award of either a doctorate or a specialised postgraduate degree. Teaching activity is organized in departments, which offer one or more degree courses in specific academic areas. Course requirements are established by law and the laurea is obtained after the student has passed a set number of exams, gained the required credits, and successfully discussed a written research paper. Admission to the Laurea programme is regulated by the general rules for university admission. Courses for masters degrees may also be offered parallel to each study cycle. All study programmes must be based on the European system for the transfer of academic credits (ECTS) as provided for in recent agreements reached at EU level. Along with the three-cycle program system established by the Italian Ministerial Decrees, a limited number of old second cycle programs (dental medicine, human medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, architecture, law) coexist with the new university system. These programs, called One- Cycle Programs, aim at providing students with advanced education and training for highly qualified professions in specific areas. The general access requirement is upper secondary school degree or a comparable foreign qualification. Admission to individual degree programs may be subject to specific course requirements. One-Cycle Programs last five years and require 300 credits (European Credit Transfer System) for completion (only human medicine requires six years and 360 credits). The degree awarded is a Master s Degree which grants access to competitions for the civil service, to regulated and nonregulated professions, doctoral programs and all the other postgraduate study degree programs. 3. Research Doctorate The aim of the doctoral studies programmes is to offer post-graduate opportunity for research. Programmes include individual research under the guidance of professors and special seminars. The minimum period of study is three years. This third-level academic degree, Doctorate of Research, is awarded to candidates who have successfully documented their research and written an original final thesis. This programme is open to a limited number of candidates (also from foreign countries), who must be university graduates or hold equivalent degrees. 3a. Post-graduate Diplomas of Specialization 8

These diplomas are given by schools offering special advanced courses in various professions. The limited places are reserved for university graduates or those with equivalent foreign qualifications. The courses last 2/3 years and include practical experience. Attendance is mandatory. The final examination is a defence of a written thesis. 9

EXCHANGE STUDENTS ERASMUS+ PROGRAMME AND BILATERAL AGREEMENTS The Student Exchange Office (Viale Romania,32 00197 Rome) deals with orientation and registration of students on exchange programmes (Erasmus+ and Bilateral Agreements). Every year, around the month of February, LUISS sends an info-package to every partner Institution by e-mail. It contains information for exchange students and application forms for: - Online registration, including the Learning Agreement (or proposed programme of study) - Accommodation - The intensive course in Italian Language in September. All applications, in electronic and paper version, completed and signed, must be received by May 31, that is the fixed deadline for fall and/or spring semester applications every year. 16

As soon as the application forms are received, in June, LUISS will send incoming students acceptance letters and practical information. Since courses and examinations are mainly held in Italian, students will need to have an adequate knowledge of the language before beginning their courses. If necessary, they can attend an intensive Italian course that is held every year at LUISS Guido Carli in September. There are set, mandatory arrival dates for each academic year. The dates are not yet available, but they will be made available and sent to partners institutions as soon as possible. At their arrival, students must report to the Student Exchange Office at 10.30 or at 2.30 p.m. (Viale Romania, 32-00197 Rome - tel.: +39-06-85225722/642- fax: +39-06-85225505 - E-mail: relint@luiss.it). They are highly recommended to arrive on the fixed dates. 5. COURSES, EXAMS, TRANSCRIPTS OF RECORDS The language of instruction is mainly Italian. Every year, LUISS offers some courses in English. The final list is available at the beginning of classes. The standard working load for LUISS students is about 30 credits/semester, including two language courses. Guest students are advised not to take more than the average working load. On making their choice of courses exchange students should: check the pre-requisites, avoid time-table clashes for attendance is compulsory, pick courses only at their level (Bachelor or Master). Full-year courses can only be taken by the students that will spend the whole academic year at LUISS. If these conditions are met, guest students have access to all the courses in the four LUISS Departments. In order to attend the Master s Degree Courses students must have: - a Bachelor degree or three years of study completed before departure; - a very good command of the Italian/English language. Please note that it will be very difficult to mix Bachelor and Master s courses because of the different timetables, calendar and examination periods. Full-time attendance of classes is mandatory. The final examinations for each course are oral and sometimes written. Written tests may be given occasionally during the course. Guest students are registered automatically for all the examination dates (Appelli) for all the courses they have chosen. Exams can be taken only on the official dates. Please note that NO special examination can be arranged for exchange students. The original transcripts of records will be sent both to the students and partner institutions after the end of each examination session. 17

To the students who come to LUISS for the whole academic year or for the second semester, the transcripts will be sent at the end of the first week of September.

The courses are only open to Erasmus and Exchange students coming from partner Universities and they are free of charge. Students who would like to attend the course must specify so on their application form. The courses comprise at least: 40-45 minute lessons for the beginners and intermediate level; 40-45 minute lessons for the advanced level. Beginners Level This level is for those who never attended an Italian language course. The main aim of the course is to help the student understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography, employment). Intermediate Level This level is for those who have already attended an Italian course and are able to communicate in everyday situations. The principal aim of the course is to improve oral communication. Particular emphasis is placed on listening comprehension to enable students to take full advantage of lectures in their chosen field. Advanced Level This level is for those who are already proficient in the language and need to develop specialist language areas. The main aim is to help the student reach a high standard of reading and writing skills. Extra curricular activities These include: Presentations followed by discussion; Meetings with Italian businessmen; 18

Guided tours with specialized teachers. The activities and meetings develop topics already discussed in class and take into account the interests of individual participants. Crash course held in September In order to obtain the certificate for the course and gain 3 ECTS credits, students must attend at least 75 % of the classes and comply with the course requirements. Italian language semester courses During the academic year, students have weekly meetings with their Italian language teacher. This gives them the opportunity to discuss any problems they might have with their Italian and to learn more about their cultural environment. The courses comprise three hours per week in both first and second semester. The main aim of the courses is to improve oral communication, reading and writing skills. Semester courses The courses will have three hours of classes per week in each semester. The students that attend the courses and comply with the requirements will receive a certificate and gain 3 ECTS credits. The person responsible for the courses is Professor Concetta Amato 7. ACCOMMODATION Since LUISS does not have student dormitory facilities offered to Exchange Students, the Student Exchange Office does not take direct responsibility in providing accommodation. A private organisation, C.T.S., takes care of it according to the application forms received (by C.T.S. and the Student Exchange Office of LUISS Guido Carli) by May 31. Ask the Erasmus+ Coordinator in your university for a copy of our Accommodation documents. Please read the booking conditions carefully, follow the instructions and complete the application form. 8. HEALTH AND INSURANCE Students from the EU are entitled to the services of the Italian National Health Service. However, they must bring along their European Health Insurance Card (E.H.I.C.). The University doctor is available to all LUISS Guido Carli students on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3.00 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. and on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10.00 a.m. to 12.00 a.m. at Viale Gorizia 17 (tel.: +39-06-85225416; serviziosanitario@luiss.it). The University Union has also started up a preventive medicine service in collaboration with appropriately equipped hospital centres. Every student is entitled to general check-ups, and, if necessary, special tests. 19

Exchange students are required to avail themselves of an insurance policy to cover risks or accidents during the period of study in Italy. 9. RESIDENCE PERMITS FOR NON-EU STUDENTS RESIDENCE PERMIT FOR NON-EU STUDENTS Non-EU students who intend to spend some time in Italy must request a residence permit no later than 8 working days from their arrival in Italy.

Together with the filled application, students must also bring: a valid passport; a photocopy of the passport (in A4 format); a photocopy of any other requested identity documents (in A4 format). The Immigration Office will contact you by priority mail for the photo-typing surveys and to set an appointment for you to receive the electronic residence permit. REGISTRATION FOR EU STUDENTS For students who plan to stay in Italy for less than three months, no formality is requested; for periods longer than three months, students need to make a vital statistic registration at the municipality, as Italians citizens do. Students will have to call 06/0606 to know which Roman municipality they belong to (you just need to tell the address of your accommodation in Rome). This procedure is mandatory, and it requires the following documents: Personal ID (or Equivalent); Declaration by LUISS stating the duration of the students exchange period. (this document is issued by the Student Exchange Office on the orientation day); Health insurance policy covering all risks that students might incur in during the whole exchange period abroad; Proof of economic means of subsistence, also by self-statement. 20

THE DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE Director: Professor Roberto D Alimonte The Department of Political Science aims to train students with an interdisciplinary education which will prepare them to work as administrators and communicators in an international environment of rapid change and development. BACHELOR THREE-YEAR DEGREE COURSES Corsi di Laurea Triennale First, Second and Third Year Political Science Scienze Politiche 1) Political Science Scienze Politiche 2) Politics, Philosophy and Economics (IN ENGLISH) 1) The course provides an interdisciplinary preparation in the national and international legal, economic, political, social and historical matters, a methodology for research, an understanding of social, economic and political processes. 2) The major in Politics, Philosophy and Economics places three disciplines (political science, philosophy and economics) on the same level and complements them with another four (contemporary history, sociology, law and statistics), focusing on theoretical and methodological aspects in a quantitative context, adopting an interdisciplinary approach and paying attention to the international dimensions, which are the features typical of the political science area. The Political Science degree course consists of 180 credits. Didactic activity is organised in semesters. MASTER S DEGREE - TWO-YEAR DEGREE COURSES Corsi di Laurea Magistrale 1) Government and Politics Governo e Politiche 2) International Relations (In English and in Italian) 3) Government and Public Communications Studies Scienze di governo e della Comunicazione Pubblica 21

1) The first course provides an interdisciplinary education of advanced level in the areas of international political, economic and social phenomena, with a specific focus on language skills and comparative methods. 2) This master's degree programme provides specialized and applied know-how and skills: the study plan is divided into a series of lectures that will allow graduates to conduct in-depth analyses of the legal, economic, historical and political aspects that affect international phenomena. A traditional teaching approach is combined with methods that get students more involved, and they will be expected to improve their public-speaking skills, carry out in-depth research, and organize and manage work. Graduates will be in a position to face problems analytically but with a systemic approach, identify their effects including collateral and involuntary ones and implement highly significant solutions within an appropriate time frame. The course structure calls for mandatory attendance of a workshop (on the analysis of the socio-political-institutional dynamics of globalization) or an internship with international and EU organizations, diplomatic delegations, and private companies working on an international and/or EU level. 3) This course focuses on information flows and communication strategies in public bodies and private enterprises as well as on communication in economic, institutional and geopolitical matters. It offers an advanced training to become experts of communication by using an interdisciplinary approach as well as the instruments of analysis and empiric research aimed to manage institutional intervention.this course provides students with the skills and methods related to the main institutional, legal, political and economical disciplines. Its objective is to work out government strategies for innovation, organization and management of public administration services. Each degree course consists of 120 credits. Didactic activity is organised in semesters. The Department employs a large number of experts, some of them coming from foreign universities and companies. These experts come from international bodies, the public administration and from different types of companies. 22

It defines on a historical basis the constituent nexus between law and economics, examining the general conditions for and legal requisites of the functioning of the various forms of freedom of enterprise in Western countries. It reconstructs how a balance is struck in Italy s constitutionally guaranteed freedom of enterprise, the country s difficulty in EU integration and its gradual inclusion in globalisation commencing from its birth through the liberalisation of free movement of capital. On that basis the course reconstructs and explains the expansion and selfpropelling and supranational dynamics of the globalised financial market and the legal tools used to bolster it, in this way describing how financial markets work and achieve a balance and also the repercussions on the real economy. Special attention will be paid to recent measures to combat the systemic crisis in global finance affecting the US and Europe. Specifically, the impact of the crisis on the euro will be examined as will the repercussions on the public finances of the EU Member States, especially Italy, with a critical illustration of the measures adopted and currently being implemented to restore an economic-financial balance.

Although a person is an ensemble of many things, gender seems to determine one s sense of being in a more profound way. Individuals are different in many respects: culture, social background, politics, nationality or ethnicity. But whatever group one considers, there will always be a gender difference within it. Gender identity has biological and natural roots but it is undeniable that it is also a social construction. Natural differences among human beings have often been the cause of social injustice and unequal treatment, as in the case of racism. On the other hand, equality among individuals seems to lead to a forgoing of one s own identity. The course highlights the special nature of gender identity, between the basis of unfair treatment to be countered and a construction of oneself to be defended. In addition to the recommended textbooks the course also relies on films and stories in the news. The students are invited to ask questions to be discussed at tutorials. oral exam Salvatore Carol Gilligan, Con voce di donna, Feltrinelli; Libreria delle donne di Milano, Non credere di avere dei diritti, Rosemberg e Sellier, Torino 1987, Introduzione e Cap. 1, pp. 9-23 e 25-59; Susan M.

After a brief discussion of international economic integration before the 19 th century, the course will focus on the causes and impact of trade, migrations and capital movements from mid-19 th century to the present against the background of modern economic growth. Emphasis is placed on the impact of globalization both on domestic politics and on international relations. The current second globalization will be compared to the first one that came to an abrupt end in August 1914. The relation between globalization and financial crises will also be emphasized. 5% oral exam 55% written exam 40% individual work executed during the course 36

The general part examines the type of forms of government as established by the "classics" of political thought, from antiquity to the 19th century. For some of these "classics", the course will pay special attention to the main work, i.e. the one that made them most famous. The specialised part will instead reconstruct the different conceptions of "liberty" turning to the "classics" here as well as they have developed (and possibly clashed) over the centuries. Therefore, the course will investigate liberal liberty, democratic liberty, socialist liberty and, lastly, "other" liberties, i.e. Catholic liberty and communist liberty.

The course then covers the main features of the theory of the State: it presents both the institutional changes characterising the contemporary State - with specific regards to territorial autonomies and international linkages (starting from the European dimension) - and the main classifications of the forms of State and the forms of government. The central section of the course lingers over the Italian constitutional system, starting from the Republican Constitution and analysing both the most relevant principles concerning the relationship between citizens and public powers and the role of the constitutional and constitutionally relevant bodies, having regard in particular to the separation of powers and the "checks and balances" system. In the final section, the course aims at providing a general description of the public administration system and of the warranties offered by the main tools of administrative justice.

It will dwell above all on questions of logical asymmetry between verification and falsification, with the intent of highlighting the logical basis of the problems-theories-criticism unified Popper method. Following this path the course will 44

investigate the epistemological reasons that underlie the anti-dogmatic attitude to the critical search for the truth inside and outside science. Second part: the theory of scientific explanation This part will examine the deductive-nomological model in order to explore the logical structure of explanation and scientific prediction. The focus will be on the paradigm of deductive knowledge, highlighting how it follows abduction logic, which is nothing more than a form of hermeneutic knowledge based on the principle of causation. The definition of a model of causal explanation of social phenomena will be conducted by constantly referring to the objections historically raised against its use in the social sciences. Third part: methodological individualism Commencing from the perennial debate between individualism and collectivism, this part will examine the two complementary aspects of individualistic explanation: the theory of rationalism to explain human action in relation to its causes and the theory of intentional consequences to explain some of its most important effects. The focus will be on complementarity between individualistic explanation and nomological explanation and on the notable heuristic potential of this evolutionary perspective for explaining the genesis and transformation of the great social institutions. Above all in relation to epistemology and Hayek evolutionism, it will be shown how that perspective enables one to come up with a sound explanation for the micro-macro question and more in general the question of the genesis of the social order. Fourth part: epistemology and politics This part of the course applies some of the categories of epistemology examined to two fundamental politic issues: democracy and intercultural dialogue. Starting from Popper s definition of open society the epistemological fundamentals of democracy will be explored: spreading of knowledge, gnoseological fallibility, ethical relativity and market economy. On the basis of methodological individualism and Gadamer s fallibistic and hermeneutic epistemology, the theory of cultural ineffability will be criticised and an epistemological defence will be proposed for the possibility of dialogue between different cultures and religions with the intent of outlining an ideal type of homo dialogicus. oral exam Di Nuoscio/Sillari Textbook: Enzo Di Nuoscio, "Il mestiere dello scienziato sociale.

After the initial discussion of what is social research, along with different research approaches, the course examines the fundamental topic of research design, along with the formulation, based on theory, of empirically testable hypotheses. The problem of the operationalization of theoretical concepts is then discussed, allowing the presentation of different types of variables, as well as the role of indicators for measuring concepts. A focus is then dedicated to the study of individuals: sampling issues; the use of the structured questionnaire; different types of questions and scales (students are then confronted with the development of a questionnaire). Other types of data are then discussed, along with qualitative research methods and techniques. Finally, an introduction to quantitative data analysis is presented, covering univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis.

These theories are the building blocks of the theories of equilibrium in perfectly and imperfectly competitive markets, which will be explored in the second part of the course. The third part of the course will be devoted to the analysis of relatively more complex issues, such as economic efficiency and welfare, and the analysis of externalities and public goods. There will be an emphasis on applications of microeconomic theory to real world contexts and problems.

Countries at the top of the world income distribution are more than thirty times as rich as those at the bottom. For example, in 2000, GDP (or income) per capita in the United States was over $33000. In contrast, income per capita is much lower in many other countries: less than $9000 in Mexico, less than $4000 in China, less than $2500 in India, and only about $700 in Nigeria, and much much lower in some other sub-saharan African countries such as Chad, Ethiopia, and Mali. These numbers are all at 1996 US dollars and are adjusted for purchasing power party (PPP) to allow for differences in relative prices of different goods across countries. How can we explain these differences? Main Topics: Cross-Country Income Differences, Income and Welfare, Theories of Economic Growth and Development, The Solow Model, Theories of endogenous Growth, Proximate vs. Fundamental Causes of Economic Growth, Technology, Entrepreneurship and Growth, Human Capital and Growth, Openess and Growth, Market and non market failures and Development Growth Diagnostics and Development policymaking Prerequisites: Macroeconomics and Microeconomics Assessment : Written (70%) + oral examination (30%) Lines 48

Firstly, the general notion of distributive justice and its relation to intergenerational global justice with global justice within generations. The attention will be driven on justice obligations towards the poor and the next generations, in the light of mitigation costs and adaptation to climatic changes. Furthermore, the historic development and the conditions of a specific distributive justice paradigm will be discussed, analysing the circumstances/conditions for justice and the idea of a society as equitable cooperation. Four principles will be then examined: maximization, equality, priorities for the more disadvantaged ones and sufficiency.

Such assessment will direct us to proposals about sustainable ways to pursue individual and societal wellbeing in the future. The role of economic growth, the form of our present economy, the task of political institutions in the face of 52

rising population as well as inequality trends, the role of technology, the ethical and political boundaries of technology-based well-being pursuit, the predicament of future generations, and the overarching and related threats of climate change and global resource depletion will all be topics of analysis and discussion.

The first section will be devoted to an illustration of the principles of Constitutionalism and Public Law in the modern era; the second and the third sections will focus on two specific constitutional experiences, the British and the Italian cases, respectively. The United Kingdom is almost unique in having an uncodified constitution which has gradually evolved into liberal democratic system of government. This program of lectures will provide a critical discussion of the ideas underpinning the constitution and of the institutional framework of 53

the original Westminster model constitution. As well as outlining the main contours of the constitution and referring to relevant legislation and case law the focus will be on examining key questions relating of check and balances and to the effectiveness of the various types of constitutional accountability. While glancing back to the historical roots of the constitution, ranging from Magna Charta to the ideas of AV Dicey and Walter Bagehot, these lectures will also be concerned with current debates and the perceived challenges that lie ahead. The completion with the Italian Constitution will facilitate a comparison between civil law and common law legal orders, giving also a broader perspective on the institutional and constitutional pluralism reached within the European Union. Moreover, the Italian case will be presented also with references to the current political and legal debate, allowing the students to reach a deeper awareness of the country in which they are studying. 50% writte 50% oral exam Lupo Core Texts: Leyland P., The Constitution of the UK: A Contextual Analysis (Hart 2012).

With a comparative historic method we will ouline the encounters between the two great and ancient civilizations located at the extreme peripheries of Eurasia. East Asia is now the most economically dynamic region in the world, but at the same time a region of potential international conflict, with a number of possible 'flashpoints'.we will study the change of identity of China and Japan in the last few decades, as a result of the grand shift in global power from the West to the East, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. To this end, first, we will outline the geopolitical imperatives and the socio-cultural factors (Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, Shintoism, socio-economic dynamics etc.) that historically have shaped the great cultures of East Asia. Secondly, we will examine the "encounters" between Europe and East Asia: pax mongolica; Jesuits and mandarins; Asia under Western hegemony; spectacular economic growth of Asia led by Japan first and now by China. Finally, we will introduce some global geopolitical e geoeconomic scenarios. 40% oral exam; 30% course attendance; 30% test Mazzei J.J.

After a methodological introduction, it will start with an overview of the constitutional cycles. In this context, the key features of the contemporary constitutional State will be discussed, with particular reference to the instruments that ensure constitutional efficacy, such as constitutional rigidity, reinforced amendment processes and constitutional review of legislation. After a focus on the main forms of Government and their practical evolution, the analysis will move to the so-called federative processes, firstly giving an outline of the general features of a federal system and then considering both the classical regional and federal States and the EU institutions with their impact over the development of Member States constitutional systems. The course will then deal with the theme of constitutional transitions, with reference to three different case-studies (Turkey, former Yugoslavia and North Africa).Particular attention will be devoted to the relation between constitutional and democratic transitions and to the influence of EU political conditionality over internal constitutional and legislative reforms. 81

We then consider the institutions and governance of the EU, focusing in turn on the institutional structures, policy-making processes, and representative politics as well as the problems for political identity and democratic legitimacy at the European and national levels. Next, we explore the policies of the EU with regard to the single market, monetary integration, regulation of risk, enlargement, immigration, foreign and security policy, and trade policy. And finally, we will consider individual country experiences more closely. Throughout, we will consider not only the ways in which particular member-states have influenced the construction of the EU as both an economic and political entity but also the ways in which the EU has affected the economies and polities of its member-states. How the Eurozone crisis has affected EU institutions, policies and member-states will be a recurrent question throughout the course.

Before we can analyse any particular media organisation or media firm, we need to consider the socio-political framework which shapes the organisation of media industries and media institutions. These frameworks, in turn, reflect fundamental attitudes towards the media which are present to greater or lesser extent in all countries with mass media. Part Two Nations and Media This theme provides an overview of some of the key cultural processes in the construction of nations and nationalism. In particular it will focus on: the role of tradition, culture and communication. The topic is divided in to three sections. Part One briefly reviews some of the principal communication theories of nationalism, highlighting theoretical perspectives that have incorporated media and culture in a wider analysis of nations and nationhood. Part Two moves on to analyse some of the ways the nation is constructed and reconstructed in everyday experience. Part Three Globalisation: An Introduction But no matter how general a description you are trying to provide, globalisation remains a difficult process to get to grips with, either theoretically or empirically. While many people have seen it as central to any description and analysis of the contemporary (social, cultural, political) conditions, others have approached the idea in a more sceptical way, dubious of the term's associations - for example its use not only in academic discourse, but also in the rhetoric of corporate marketing. Part Four: Marketing Communications In this section we will deal with the implications of the growth of the Internet and other communication technologies for society in general and communication/public relations in particular. Technology is one of the most important factors in the development of international communication and every time a new piece of technology appears on the market, there is this hope of progress beyond just the technical change. The past two decades have been exceptional in that the developments have taken on unimagined speed and flexibility. This had been the basis for many communication experts to go out and tell us about new marketing opportunities and its importance for economic and social change. Part Five: International Public Relations On completion of this section you should be able to identify the opportunities and constraints for global public relations. You should also be able to understand the issues and techniques relevant to the management of overseas agencies and identify the possible causes of international public relations problems. 20% attendance, 40% essay, 40% written exam Hibberd Curtin P.

First it provides a general overview of the phenomenon of international organization in its historical development from the League of Nations to the United Nations and in the contemporary context of a proliferation of international institutional at the regional and global level with their far reaching effects in the sphere of life of nation states, including security, economy, culture, environment and development. Second, it will focus on an important aspect of the mission of international organizations, that is the protection of human rights as a common concern of humanity. This second aspect will be treated in the second part of the course in relation to the work of the United Nations in the field of human rights, from the Universal Declaration to present, and the institutionalization of the mechanism of protection of human rights at the regional level, notably within the Council of Europe with the European Convention, in Latin America with the Inter-American system of human rights protection, and in Africa with the African Union Charter of human and Peoples Rights. In this second part of the course we will examine the role of international law and international organizations at the standard setting level and at the level of enforcement of human rights. Contrary to certain orientations in human rights scholarship, human rights law will not be examined as a self-contained branch of international law but as domain interconnected with other areas of international law, especially economic law, the law of armed conflict, environmental protection and the law of culture. 1) students are required to perform an oral presentation, or a written short paper if they take the mid-term exam; 2) a final oral exam is compulsory. The mid-term written exam is optional and is meant to cover the first Part of the course.

They are protected by countless treaties at a global and regional level, by a certain number of customary norms, by general principles of law, and also by some peremptory norms of jus cogens. The purpose of this course is to examine the role of international law in the development, and enforcement of human rights. In doing so, the course will explore not only the analysis to the specific sector of international human right law, as if it were an autonomous and self concluded branch of the law, but also it will explore the topics and issues related to the human rights norms with all the relevant branches of international law. It will thus address the rules contained in international economic law, concerning this subject matter (especially trade and private investments) and it examines subsequent policy proposals regarding environmental law, the law of armed conflicts and international law of culture.

SCHOOL OF GOVERNMENT (SoG) The LUISS School of Government (SoG) is a graduate institution training high-level public and private officials to handle political and government decision-making processes. It is committed to provide theoretical and hands-on skills of good government to the future heads of the legislative, governmental and administrative institutions, industry, special-interest associations, nongovernmental groups, political parties, consultancy firms, public policy research institutions, foundations and public affairs institutions. The SoG provides its students with the skills needed to respond to current and future public policy challenges. While public politics was enclosed within the state throughout most of the last century, the same thing cannot be said for the new century. Public politics is now actively conducted outside and beyond the state. Not only in Europe but also around the world, states do not have total control over those public political processes that influence their decisions. While markets are Europeanised and globalised, the same cannot be said for the state. The educational contents of the SoG reflect the need to grasp this evolving scenario since it combines the theoretical aspects of political studies (such as political science, international relations, economics, law, history, sociology, organisation and management) with the practical components of government (such as those connected with the analysis and evaluation of public policies, public opinion, interests representation, advocacy and organizational leadership). The SoG thus represents an innovative centre for scientific and professional training. The first in Italy, one of the few in Europe. The School creates strong capacity in national and international governance by offering opportunities of advanced education and training in policy and public management. Its master courses prepare students for high-level positions in government institutions, European and international organizations, industry, private sector consultancies, NGOs and public policy research centres. Students are trained to apply modern theories and techniques of public policy development taking into consideration the political and social context where these policies are designed and implemented. All courses involve strong interactions with renowned European and international personalities and practitioners via guest lectures, policy debates and colloquia. Currently the School offers eleven master programmes in Italian and English (NOT OPEN TO EXCHANGE STUDENTS) - The Master in European and Global Affairs is two-year programme is aimed at those students who retain a strong interest in international politics and global perspectives while focusing on EU institutions and policies in a global environmentt. This programme is the result of a joint partnership between School of Government of LUISS Guido Carli in Rome, Italy and the Department of Politics at University of Sheffield. The master allows students to be able to understand, the history, theory and contemporary implications of international and European relations, as well as the forces that drive global developments; acquire the tools to understand the dynamics of contemporary international and European relations; develop an advanced understanding of issues of international governance and their significance; design and conduct inquiries and subsequently report on scientific issues within international and European relations. - The Master in Law and Government of the European Union (MA/LL.M) is promoted jointly by the LUISS Department of Law and the LUISS School of Government. This second level advanced master focuses on European Union (EU) legal, institutional and policy issues. The process of Europeanization calls into question the separation between domestic and European legal and policies regimes. This advanced second-level master provides the necessary training to enable graduates in legal and policy affairs to operate in this new 109

context within EU institutions; law firms and private companies; public and private organizations; NGOs and non-profit associations; regional and national institutions; regulatory and consultancy agencies; banks and financial institutions. - The Master in Parliament and Public Policy (MAPP)(in Italian), a second-level master's degree (i.e. for students who have completed the two-years magisterial programme) and it has already been offered for several years by the LUISS. Its goal is to train officials for constitutional national and supranational bodies (the Chamber of Deputies, the Italian Senate, the Presidency of the Republic, the Constitutional Court, the European Parliament), government agencies and local and regional institutions. The programme trains officials who are not only capable of backing the activities of political organs but who can also assess the implications of the decisions that are made by these bodies. - The Master in European Studies (in English),(RESTRICTED ACCESS TO EXCHANGE STUDENTS Very limited number of places students can contact the Student Exchange Office) a first-level master's programme to train officials who are interested in working within the institutions of the European Union or with the national and regional institutions connected with them. Its goal is to prepare officials for the various agencies involved in the EU process: personnel trained to deal with the European policies and processes at the various decision-making levels (regional, national and European) where they take place. The Master is now in its fourth year of operation. An Interdisciplinary Programme aims to provide students with a broad yet specific knowledge in all of those subjects that constitute the heart and soul of modern Europe, its history and politics, its economic and social fabric as well as its legal, institutional and organisational framework, not only concerning the EU but also the European continent as a whole and it s external relations. Special emphasis is laid on issues of European- Mediterranean relations and cooperation. The Departmenty consists of highly qualified academics from different countries and the programme is taught entirely in English. The Master is a one-year postgraduate study programme following the bachelor s level. It is a nine-month full-time programme, structured in two semesters, the first of which runs from the beginning of October to mid-february, the second from mid-february to the end of June. The Master in EU Studies is a post-graduate advanced programme for a limited number of students. Courses are therefore available only for exchange students who have the necessary pre-requisites and a very good level of English language. More information on the participation to the Master in EU Studies courses will be available for the students at their arrival to LUISS. - The Master in International Public Affairs (in English), - a second-level master's programme to train Italian and foreign top officials who are interested in working within the various networks of the institutions and organizations operating at the international level, i.e. international institutions and non-government organisations, regulatory agencies and pressure groups, and associations that handle international monitoring and consultancy activities. The master trains experts in international public policy and political affairs. It is aimed at students with full undergraduate or graduate degrees in social and political sciences, economics, law, history and humanities and/or consolidated professional experience in the field of public affairs and policy making. The course is to give the tools for managing the challenges of policy-making in a globalised world. Students, therefore, will be exposed to an interdisciplinary academic and professional programme led by leading international academics and practitioners. All MIPA courses and activities are in English. Linking theory to practice is at the heart of this master course. Students are also to benefit from regular interactions with renowned global personalities: 110

Guest Lectures: practitioners are invited to share their experiences; Policy Debates: students are invited to exchange views in structured debates on current issues of public policy, moderated by public policy experts; Colloquia: department members are to team up with guest practitioners to examine and present case studies linking theory to practical application. - The Master in Administration, Government and Territory, (in Italian) is jointly organized by LUISS School of Government, "Vittorio Bachelet" LUISS Research Center on Public Administration, by Scuola Superiore dell'amministrazione degli Interni (SSAI), and by the Albo Nazionale dei Segretari Comunali e Provinciali Department for Internal and Territorial Affairs Ministry of Interior. The Master has the goal to provide an advanced training for those interested in realizing a professional career in local government and local systems. Furthermore, the Master has the objective to give those officials that already work in the public administrations and private sector the skills to develop relationships with other public and private actors, by sharing relational competences, and through the study of subjects of common interests, and the sperimentation of governance instruments for collaboration and coordination. Also, it aims at ensuring the opportunity to combine theoretical learning with operational expertisee, by sharing experiences with professionals that already carry out qualified functions in public and private structures in the territory. - The Master in Comunicazione Istituzionale delle amministrazioni, Organizzazioni e Imprese is organised in association with the "Massimo Baldini" School of Journalism of LUISS Guido Carli and through it the LUISS School of Government offers a second-level master s degree programme aimed at training communication managers for the public sector, organisations and businesses. The programme seeks to prepare advanced professional figures capable of playing an integral role in a dynamic reality like a private business enterprise, a government agency or a non-profit organisation. Participants will gain the skills required to communicate the mission and strategic objectives of businesses, organisation and government, interacting with the public and interpreting the surrounding media panorama. The 1-year master s degree programme is aimed at those who have a first-level master s degree (or a specialist degree under the old university system). Graduates will be able to organise and manage internal and external communications and, in particular, institutional relations between the private sector and government and between the latter and citizens. Moreover, for those who already work in the civil service, the didactic structure complies with the statutory requirements as to communication and transparency of the public administration. - The Master in Economia e Istituzioni dei Paesi Islamici prepares those who wish to learn more about the political, economic, financial and social changes that are currently taking place in Islamic countries, especially on the southern shore of the Mediterranean in the wake of the recent Arab Spring. These changes offer great professional opportunities to those who have the necessary wherewithal to interpret the specific economic, political and financial needs of this region. In fact, there are many sectors of interest for Italian businesses and organisations who need professionals capable of operating on the basis of Islamic principles and the associated economic, financial and commercial instruments. The master s programme wishes to train professionals who can efficiently operate on Islamic markets, in particular, those in the Mediterranean. Participants are likely to be officials interested in expanding their knowledge or graduates interested in embarking on a career with a specific focus on the political and economic systems of Islamic countries. The master s programme is organised with the patronage of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco and the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Egypt, which will provide firsthand knowledge and professional indications to participants. - The Master in Management e Politiche delle Pubbliche Amministrazioni is a highlevel innovative course for public sector employees and those interested in improving their 111

skills and know-how through the advanced training in legal, economic, political and managerial matters necessary to develop future leadership and management functions in national and European governments. The master s programme is organised in conjunction with the National School of Administration (SNA) and leads to the award of a second-level university master s degree and a specialist diploma from the National School of Administration. - The Master in Management Politico aims to provide the fundamental technical and managerial competence to pursue a career in the political system and in public administration at all levels from local government (district, municipal, provincial and regional) to the national and European parliaments and to train professionals who are able to perform managerial functions in citizen bodies (political parties, trade unions and associations). - The Master In Turismo e Territorio: economia, marketing, eco-sostenibilità developed in collaboration with the Confederation of Italian Industry s tourism branch (Confindustria Federturismo) and with the support of the Municipality of Rome, was established ten years ago in the wake of the needs of the tourist industry for specialized training in excellence. It was the first university master s programme organised by LUISS Guido Carli, encompassing courses in six subject areas (management economics, law and administration, marketing, economics and local development, languages, and computing and ICT) for a total of slightly less than 500 hours of lectures, workshops and tutorials. Testimonials, meetings and technical seminars account for another 120 hours. In the months spent in the classroom students are involved in a lot of group work, research and writing. They participate in a business game divided into teams, creating a business plan for a new business, building a company website complete with social network and contributing to the realization of events such as conferences, workshops, career days, etc. organised annually by the master s programme in association with partners. The interdisciplinary approach and strong integration between the academic and business worlds has been and continues to be a successful model. 112

THE SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM The School of Specialisation in Journalism Massimo Baldini is part of the Department of Political Science at LUISS Guido Carli and offers 40 places per year for graduates coming from various disciplines. Attendance is mandatory for a two-year period. The School is recognised by the Italian Order of Journalism and has a teaching staff of 55 experts, comprising professors holding various university chairs, journalists and highly qualified professional tutors. Each of the two courses, in the two academic years, include about 33 disciplines for a total of 600 classroom hours and approximately 1,400 hours in laboratories dedicated to text editing, videocomposition and radio-television. During the practical activities use is made of technologically advanced didactic structures together with Ansa news bulletins and telematic services through Internet. During the year, Seminars are organised discussing particular themes, and comparisons in the communications sector are made between Italy and other countries, with the participation of foreign experts and journalists. Technical-professional training is furthered by the use of the periodical: the multi-weekly Agency, LUISSMediaNews.
