The aim of this course is to put forward the ethical questions arising from the emerging biotechnologies into the legal context. This course will provide an avenue for the students to engage in the debates surrounding questions of the legality and permissibility of these technologies, and we will also ask if these technologies challenge our foundational assumptions about law and legal actors, and especially about the nature of the relationship between law and ethics. The course will be primarily discussion-based (although, like the technologies, the discussions, too, will be somewhat regulated), and will foster critical thinking and argumentative skills of the participating students.

As the World is experiencing an epochal transition, this class aims at applying game theory to explain the strategic interaction among countries, federations, and institutions both in the development of multilateral negotiations and in unfolding geopolitical/geo-economic confrontations. This course focuses on providing a novel way of thinking about the formation of international agreements, considering the role played by Law and technology in shaping balances of power.
Game theory analyses the logic of decision-making, in particular amongst several participants, which has a wide range of applications among the social sciences. Adopting a game theoretical approach to model strategic behaviour aims at gaining counterintuitive insights that may not arise under classic legal analysis. Beyond applying positive jurisprudence, legal experts and policy makers must embrace a strategic approach in carrying out decision-making tasks.

This course provides a general introduction to the law of torts. It covers laws that determine the conditions under which someone might be held legally responsible for having caused harm to another person or another person’s property under civil law. We will study American tort law with a special emphasis on intentional torts (e.g. trespass, assault and battery) and negligence. Further, we will discuss the rationale behind judgments in civil cases. Treating the need for victim compensation as a societal problem, the course will deal with alternatives to the tort system such as no-fault. Throughout the course, there will be an effort to identify the basic purposes, which a tort system achieves or should achieve. Topics include intentional and unintentional injury; fault and no-fault theories of liability; causation; compensatory and punitive damages; affirmative defenses and other limitations of liability; vicarious and strict liability.

Course design: This course is a lecture. Nonetheless, student participation in the debates and preparation of parts of the cases is essential. Required reading will be provided.

10-02-723 Rechtliche Bewältigung von Umweltkonflikten in Lateinamerika

Dozentin:

Diana Carolina Sanabria Ramirez

Die Wirtschaft in Lateinamerika basiert zu einem großen Teil auf extraktiver Industrie (Gold, Erdöl, Kohle, Coltan, usw.). Das hat einiges an Wirtschaftswachstum erzeugt, aber auch viele ökologische und territoriale Konflikte geschaffen, insbesondere mit der ländlichen und indigenen Bevölkerung. Daneben leiden die meisten lateinamerikanischen Länder an den Konsequenzen des Klimawandels und schlechter Infrastruktur, deren Ausbau wiederum neue Herausforderungen für die Umwelt schafft. Die Rechtsordnung versucht, die Interessen lokaler und indigener Bevölkerung und der Natur zu stärken. Doch da die Durchsetzung des Rechts gerade in ländlichen Regionen oft nicht sehr gut funktioniert und große wirtschaftliche und politische Interessen hinter der extraktiven Industrie stehen, gelingt das nicht immer.

Diese Vorlesung beschäftigt sich mit den dargestellten Problemen aus juristischer Sicht. Kenntnisse der Fachsprache sind nicht vorausgesetzt. Die erforderlichen Fachbegriffe werden in der Vorlesung beigebracht.

This course introduces a fairly broad spectrum of substantive and procedural issues of Anglo-American law. The three blocks of instruction cover criminal, contract and tort law.

These blocks each end with a formal "negotiation," whereby students are assigned to teams and must prepare "portfolios," ie documentation to negotiate a problem on behalf of their "clients."

Students are assessed on their active oral participation in these negotiations and one oral presentation of 10 minutes. Very active student participation and preparation is required.

Language Level B2 or better.

The aim of this course is to provide an overview of Turkish legal culture within the field of public law by focusing on the Ottoman-Turkish constitutional development from the beginning of 19th century to the present. This will be done within the Ottoman era by examining the first constitutional steps such as Sened-i Ittifak (Deed of Alliance; 1808), the edicts of Tanzimat (1839) and Islahat (1856) and the Constitution of 1876. The constitutional amendment in 1909 which introduced a parliamentary system will be dealt with as a last stage of this period. For the Republic era, the constitutions of 1921, 1924, 1961 and 1982 with their important amendments will be analysed. Thus, students will gain a broad knowledge with regard to the rise and development of the principles of rule of law, secularism, social state, and parliamentary democracy in Turkey.

The recent legal development affecting these principles will form the last part of the course.

Should genome editing in humans embryos be legally permissible? What, if anything, is wrong with the enhancements of humans, and especially, the cognitive enhancement of the human brain? Should the law allow human organs be “grown” through the creation of human-animal chimeras? Do animals have a right not to be experimented upon? While on the one hand the emerging biotechnologies aim to promote the health and well-being of the society, they also raise serious legal, ethical, and regulatory challenges on the other hand. These legal and ethical questions are no longer restricted to the realm of the “hypothetical”. With the unsurpassed growth in the emerging biotechnologies, these are some crucial questions that the current legal systems have to battle.

Sustainable Development in the Dynamics of Public International Law. The seminar’s intention is to dive deeper into the well-known but at the same time ambiguous concept of sustainable development. We are going to look at the notion of sustainable development through a Public International Law lens in order to discuss possible legal and political implications on the basis of a variety of legal fields and settings.

Students have the possibility to give a short presentation in English on the topic of their choice.

Teaching language will be English. The seminar addresses all students of all faculties with an interest in Public International Law. Students from the first semester onwards, Erasmus students and those students feeling uncomfortable with speaking English are explicitly invited since neither previous knowledge of the subject nor excellent English skills are required.

The seminar is a continuation of last semester’s seminar “Classics of Public International Law Revisited” that was created to establish a continuous seminar within the scope of Public International Law. All impulses and/or suggestions - especially concerning the proposed topics - are welcome.

This lecture is an invitation to analyze and reflect upon the principles and values of the Fundamental Human Rights obligations of Nation States in a Rule of Law System. Through the lenses of an ancient (and yet contemporary) paradigm "Antigone versus Creonte", "Rights versus Law", we intent to guide the students into a "sensory" understanding of this paradigm, both through content as well as through a specific set of processes based exercises, in order to possibly unfold a deeper awareness of the controversial relation between Rights and Law.

The juridical approach will include History of Law, general theory of Human Rights, international and European human rights system with a deeper analysis on national cases on the horizon of common constitutional tradition. The content will partially be vehicle through a set of processes based exercises inspired by a Social Sculpture methodology, that aims at connecting with an inner understanding of the subject matter, and finally foster a deeper understanding of its individual and social implications.

This lecture is addressed to the students of the Faculty of Law, with the perspective of various professional horizons. In their future, they could take many different life paths becoming members of diplomatic missions, experts in International relations, human rights lawyers and more. Thanks to its frontal and interactive approach, this course will provide the tools to build a framework for structuring their personal vision of problems and solutions.

Students will learn a very specific language, while understanding how the theme of immigration can be related to many other problems thanks to a series of concatenated reflections on various subjects.

This course is designed as an introduction to the basic concepts, issues and problems that pertain to migration, especially forced migration, from the perspective of both migrants and policy-makers, with a special focus on human rights, women empowerment and health.

Students will be taught to critically analyse the migration profiles of countries beyond the forced/voluntary dichotomy and gain critical familiarity with the diversity of stakeholders in mobility management to better assess what avenues of humanitarian, development and political cooperation should be enhanced to protect populations in times of crisis.

Key underlying questions will be considered: Why "managing" migration? How to assess vulnerability as well as safety?

What does "legality" of mobility mean? How much is the international refugee regime well equipped to cope with the changing aspects of these movements? How sensible are categories of migration? What are current crises’ impact on population movements? Why are people moving (causes of migration), and what are they looking for in displacement (drivers of migration) and upon return (reintegration)?

A conceptual introduction to the system and method of global health domain related to immigration will be provided.

This course suggests a global approach to improve the understanding of the theme of immigration and related topics, while trying to answer to some suspended questions:

How and why to link together so different topics?  Is empathy in this field an added value or not?  The role of women empowerment could be an important support to human rights and in particular the community health?

The aim of this course is also to develop a critical attitude towards international relations and, on the other hand, to give the students the basic theoretical and methodological tools to develop a personal, organized and reasoned reflection in this area.

This course intends to introduce to the students scheme of UN not merely as an international organization rather as a concept of use of force and international legal regime that governs it through UN Charter. International Law concerning use of force or what is also called as jus contra bellum is important in international relations as many states resort to it as a means of settlement of their international dispute. Further, this course intends to achieve is that students must be able to conceptualize the aspect of state responsibility under international law as to how a state can be made responsible for its internationally wrongful acts. Additionally, what laws are available to protect the humans once the war has broken out? The inter-relationship among these laws will be carefully examined. International Humanitarian law and International Human Rights Law will not be taught as subject rather as an introduction to their role in armed conflict. Students will be prepared to protect the interest of their State as well as of individual who has been rendered confused as to the legal protection available to him/her during armed conflict.

This course is aimed at introducing the students into the main important principles and concepts of International Criminal Law (ICL) as it stands at the present time. Given the ongoing active and dynamic developments in this relatively recent but reach branch of International Law as well as the ever increasing rate of referring to its material provisions within the modern interactions among States, there exists a number of views and approaches to describing ICL by different legal theoretical schools of thought. This particular course provides the systematic description of ICL as it is understood presently in Europe. It explains the historical development of ICL, general principles, main provisions concerning its material part which consists of four core crimes under International Law: genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression, its procedural principles and aspects, issues related to domestic implementation and enforcement of ICL, and prosecution of crimes under International Law by domestic courts. The main aspects underpinning the work of the most significant legal mechanism of international criminal justice, the International Criminal Court, will be addressed. Students will thus be offered a general comprehensive picture of how, at the present stage, ICL fits into contemporary international legal order as an important tool in order to ensure justice and respond to impunity that often characterizes the commission of crimes under international law.

This class aims to debate and to analyze the theoretical portrait over the debate which surrounds hermeneutic and exegesis and how such debate affects legal-decision making and our understanding on right of freedom and equality. To give some support on such assumption, we are going to confront the theory with the practical reasoning. For that, some decisions from European Court of Human Rights are going to be under spot. Based on the philosophical concept of Europe, and not only geographical, as Husserl and Jan Patocka once shaped, at end, we are going to deal not only with a regional or supranational, but we will seize on a more deep and intricate question on Western society, consequently what would be reason and responsibility for the West.
