Learning Outcomes
The aim of this seminar concentrates in the problematization of the contemporary multiplicity of perspectives of legal thinking in face of the growing heterogeneity and complexity of juridically relevant intersubjectivity – conferring an essential prominent position, as a normatively densifying assumption and conferring meaning, to the problem of the foundation of law, between Normativism (s), Functionalism (s) and Jurisprudentialism (s) – specifically reflecting on the extrajuridical demands increasingly imposed to law, arising from the most diverse, and sometimes contradictory, ideological-political domains, of course, but also moral, religious, economic, and scientific in general, currently called upon in the collision of discourses between tolerance and human rights and between these and juridicity.
