▌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 LLP 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-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 LLP 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.

6

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.

▌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 = good

29/30 = Very good

30 e lode = Excellent

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 second-level 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 non-regulated 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.

9

3a. Post-graduate Diplomas of Specialization 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.

EXCHANGE STUDENTS LLP ERASMUS PROGRAMME AND BILATERAL AGREEMENTS

The Student Exchange Office (Viale Romania,32 00197 Rome) deals with orientation and registration of students on exchange programmes (LLP 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.

17

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. 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: +39-06-86506505 - 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.

18

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. Our summer examination session ends on July 18 and transcripts cannot be prepared before the session is over. Since the University closes in August, the transcripts can only be issued by the Student Office after the summer break.

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:

19

Presentations followed by discussion;

Meetings with Italian businessmen;

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 LLP 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.).

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)International Relations Relazioni Internazionali

2)International Relations (IN ENGLISH)

3)Government and Public Communications Scienze di governo e della Comunicazione Pubblica

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.

22

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.

The course is an introduction to the study of the legal and general aspects of the globalised economy. 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 self-propelling 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.

37

Gender is a key feature of personal identity. 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.

12 PS3-HoG12-B: HISTORY OF GLOBALISATION III year; spring semester; 64 lectures; 6 hrs per week; 8 credits, elective; The course outlines the history of the integration of the world economy. After a brief discussion of international economic integration before the 19th century, the course will focus on the causes and impact of trade, migrations and capital movements from mid-19th 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.

14b PS3-HPP14b-B: HISTORY OF POLITICAL THOUGHT I year; spring semester; 64 lectures; 6 hrs per week; 8 credits

The course is divided into two parts: the first one is general and the second specialised. 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 lectures will provide the historical and conceptual underpinnings necessary to assess a conciliatory view of the connections between constitutionalism and democracy, to the effect that constitutional norms warrant for the power and the effectiveness of the action of democratic governments. Some room will be also given to the psychological foundations of those views, in authors such as J. Bodin, T. Hobbes, J. Locke, D. Hume, A. Smith, Ch. L. de Montesquieu and J.S. Mill.

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.

First part: general epistemology

This part will be dedicated to an analysis of the logical structure of both the scientific theories and the tools used for logical and empirical verification. 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 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

46

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.

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 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.

It then moves on to the specificity of sociological knowledge: the key role of empirical research, with the necessity to develop specific research methods, and the emergence of different research paradigms. The course then presents in detail some of the core aspects of society, from a sociological point of view that combines a review of the main theoretical approaches along with the presentation of key empirical findings from contemporary research.

PS2-SoC31a/b-B: SOCIOLOGY OF POLITICAL PHENOMENA III year; spring semester; 64 lectures; 6 hrs per week; 8 credits,

The course proposes to provide the fundamental knowledge to analyse political phenomena from a sociological standpoint. In addition to examining terrorism as a general category there will be an in-depth analysis of that particular anthropological subject who goes by the name of ‘committed terrorist’: a type of man or woman who is bent on killing or getting killed in order to realise their ideal of destroying capitalism and the bourgeoisie. At the heart of the course is the following question: why has capitalism attracted so much hate despite being the economic system that more than any other has created and distributed the greatest amount of wealth to all social strata?

PS1-TPC35-B: THEORY AND PRACTICE OF CINEMA III year; spring semester; 64 lectures; 6 hrs per week; 8 credits; elective

The course proposes to set students on the road to studying cinema, both in terms of cultural production and text. The course is divided into a number of modules.

- THEORY AND HISTORY. The first part of the course will address the dual issues of the history of the cinema and the history associated therewith: from silent movies at the beginning (theory on pre-cinema and silent cinema), the advent of sound, the main European schools and Soviet cinema (theory of editing), the development of Hollywood (theory of classic American cinema), Italian neorealism (theoretical debate on neorealism), the Italian cinema of the 1960s and the French nouvelle vague (politics of authors and debate on the French new wave), the crisis of the main film-makers in the 1970s and 1980s, the success of the new Eastern European schools (new theoretical approaches like the semiological and sociological approach, contamination between cinema and psychoanalysis, cultural and gender studies, feminist film theory, etc.).

- CINEMA AND POLITICS. The second part of the course studies the relationship between cinema and politics, the analysis of how movies portray power, different political systems and leadership. Accordingly, there will be guided viewing, in accordance with the socio-semiotic method, of selected Italian, European and American films.

- FILM AS A TEXT. A film, like any other textual work, can channel not only data and information but also make the most diverse architecture of sense converge on data and information, always counting on the direct cooperation of the spectator. Therefore, a picture of the main methodological approaches of the analytical theories of the cinema will be presented, which will then be examined in depth in the relevant master’s degree course.

8a/b PS2-CSR8a/b-M: CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSABILITY II year; fall semester; 64 lectures; 3 hrs per week; 6 credits; elective

What relationship is there between economics and ethics? What relationship is there between business and society. What are codes of ethics and social responsibility and why have they become so important in contemporary corporate governance strategies? The course aims to respond to these questions through a multidisciplinary and innovative didactic path divided into two parts.

In the first part, commencing with Amartya Sen’s On Ethics and Economics, the course discusses the fundamental questions concerning the relationship between ethical reflection and economics, paying particular attention to notions like rights, liberty and utility. The first part concludes with an analysis of portions of the encyclical Caritas in Veritate that address the relationship between ethics and economics.

The second part of the court deals with the topic of corporate social responsibility, a concept that describes the relationship between businesses, understood as the leading economic players, and society. In particular, this part concentrates on “stakeholder theory”, an approach that extends notion of responsibility towards all those individuals or groups who have legitimate interest in or claim on the business.

12 PS1-EPS(Eng)12-M: EUROPEAN POLITICAL SYSTEMS: HISTORICAL APPROACH (in English) I year; fall semester; 64 lectures; 3 hrs per week; 8 credits The methodological introduction will be centered on the problem of historical comparison. Then, the course will be divided as it follows: Firstly, the European political systems will be studied comparatively from 1945 until nowadays. Special attention will be paid to the French and the Italian case studies: the 4th Republic and the establishing of the 5th Republic in France, the so-called “1st Republic” and the “transition” sine the Nineties. We will deal also with the British and the German cases. Secondly, we will analyze from a comparative perspective the Italian and the French party systems from 1945 until nowadays; then, we will go through the recent changes occurred more in general in the European parties. Special attention will be paid to a few concrete cases, from European left-wing and right-wing parties. Thirdly, we will examine closely democracy’s changes with an approach grounded on history and political science: from the appearance of democracy of opinion to the changes in representative democracy; from the spreading of the so-called “anti-politics” to the birth of participatory democracy.

Special attention will be

82

paid to the relationship between journalism and the political sphere: how journalism has been regulated; how it has influenced the development of modern political systems; how (un)able it has been to set itself free from political party constrains. The course will be centred on the following historical experiences: American and English journalism in the Nineteenth Century as the paradigm of modern journalism: independent of the centres of economic power and party politics, and “objective”; French journalism between the mid-Nineteenth and the mid-Twentieth Centuries: reaching a mass dimension, while remaining deeply embedded in party strife and political ideologies; Italian journalism in the Risorgimento, as the complex result of an attempt to “import” European liberalism in a national situation not yet prepared to implement it autonomously; The Weimar Republic: an ambitious democratic project, the failure of which is also due to the working of its mass meda system; Journalism in totalitarian (or semi-totalitarian) regimes – nazism, fascism and communism –, labouring to find a compromise between the need for ideological orthodoxy and that to interest and involve as wide a public as possible; Italian journalism during the Republic, placed in the wider context of post-1945 European journalism, as a model opposed to the Anglo-Saxon standard: tied to the economic power and deeply involved in party political strife.

During the first part the course will follow the key passages of the process of European integration, inserting them in the field of the Euroatlantic relationships starting from the outbreak of the Cold War up to the fall of the Berlin Wall. Our main goal is to create a link between actions and reactions showed by the Six founding member states of the ECSC first- and EEC after- and the changing role of the international scenario from the first step of the process. After covering this overall landscape from 1945 to 1989 we will focus our attention on two case studies: Italy and Spain. And we will analyze their detailed passages towards their European integration process. We will analyze the choices made by their respective ruling classes, the way in which the political parties cope with the issue of European integration in Parliament and during their internal debate both during the Fifties and the mid Seventies.

For this reason the study of this subject will be carried out according to the changes Italian public administration has undergone since 1990, focusing on the changes in the relationship between citizens and public administrations triggered by the 2001 constitutional amendment which introduced the principle of "horizontal subsidiarity". As a matter of fact, the concept of institutional communication changes when, while being used in the context of the relationship between administrations and citizens, it becomes the tool with which to rule with the network, that is creating a system of alliances between public institutions and citizens, the latter being either simple individuals or associations. In particular, the course will be focused on the following topics. Communication as an administrative duty. The effects of information and communication. Communication and administrative powers. Communication and responsibility. Information and communication: a comparison. Types of public communication. The Italian Law n. 150/2000. The public duty of communication in "shared administration". Information, communication and new technologies. Open government, streamlining and communication. Public communication in the field of environmental law as a tool to carry out a participatory planning of facilities and infrastructure; to promote sustainable lifestyles; to encourage sustainable development. Main topics: a) shapes and techniques of dialogue between institutions and citizens to realize public infrastucture; b) waste collection and disposal; c) energy and water saving; d) sustainable mobility. Risks' communication as a way to give responsibility to citizens in the prevention and management of risks. In this case the institutional communication is functional to encouraging and coordinating actions that could be able to influence the crisis's development with citizens' cooperation. Informing citizens about the way to face dangerous situations. In particular, by teaching the importance of self-protection behaviours and involving people in communication activities (brochures, meetings, trainings). The role of citizens as the core of the network directed to prevent and manage risks through crowdsourcing techniques: http://openforesteitaliane.crowdmap.com/.

PS1-IHA25-M: INSTITUTIONS AND HISTORY OF THE AMERICAS I year; fall semester; 64 lectures; 3 hrs per week; 8 credits

The course is divided into two modules, one on North America and one on Latin America, and provides the keys for interpreting the historical and current reality of the Americas and indicates the sources and resources for studying it.

The North America module reviews the historical and economic events of the United States through the creation and evolution of its organisation as a country. The notably thematic and diachronic approach seeks right from the very start to provide a tool for understanding the United States in search of new image and a new mission. The fact that presidential elections are taking place this year will afford many opportunities to refer to very topical issues.

Commencing from an analysis of the main historical, political and economic characteristics of the area in question, the Latin America module focuses on the development of relations among Latin American countries themselves and between the latter and the United States and Europe, outlining the specific features of this area compared to other non-European ones.

▌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, non-governmental 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 four master programmes in Italian and English (NOT OPEN TO EXCHANGE STUDENTS)

- The Master Representation of Interests, Politics and Institutions (MARI) (in

Italian), is an advanced one-year masters for those graduate students who wants to acquire the necessary theoretical and practical skills to immediately apply while working for political parties, not-for-profit organisations and civil society associations and public opinion management. Past graduates of this courses have started a carreer in these organisations with great professional success..

- 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.

114

- 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:

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.

115

▌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, video-composition 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. Students are assisted by a group of journalists specialised in various fields who, acting in the capacity of tutors, collaborate with radio-television technicians and computer experts to promote and co-ordinate the preparation of features and practical activities for videocomposition, television filming, recording of radio interviews and the mounting of television newscasts and news-bulletins. At the end of the two years of attendance, the acknowledgement of the apprenticeship is obtained, according to the agreements of the Order of Journalists.

Please note that the courses of the School are not open to LLP Erasmus students or students under other exchange agreements.

▌USEFUL INFORMATION FOR GUEST STUDENTS

COST OF LIVING

MONEY On January 1st, 2002 the Euro was introduced as legal currency in Italy, substituting the Italian “Lira”.

Banks – opening hours: Monday to Friday; 8.30 a.m.- 1.30 p.m. and 2.45 p.m. - 3.45 p.m. We suggest that you go to the bank in the morning. If you wish to open a bank account in Italy you will first have to obtain your Codice Fiscale (see n.9 TAXPAYER’S CODE NUMBER).

Credit cards are widely accepted in restaurants, hotels, railway stations and shops. You may use a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, etc) to cash Euro from Automatic Teller Machines – ATM – available in every bank at all times. Most cards have a limit on the amount of cash which can be withdrawn.

We recommend that students bring along a sufficient amount of Euros or travellers cheques to cover immediate necessities (keep in mind that there are considerable delays involved in transferring money to Italy from abroad!).

ACCOMMODATION LUISS University has no dormitory facilities. Most Erasmus students live in private apartments with Italian or international roommates in the neighbourhoods nearby the University. The Student Exchange Office does not take direct responsibility for providing accommodation. A private organization takes care of it on the basis of the application forms received (by the Student Exchange Office of LUISS Guido Carli) by May 31. The average cost is between € 350 for a place in a double room and € 500 for a single room a month plus utilities (telephone, electricity, heating, gas). Ask your Coordinator for a copy of the accommodation documents. Please read the booking conditions carefully, follow the instructions and complete the application form.

INSURANCE All guest students are highly required to have an insurance policy covering medical care and third party liability. It is advisable for them to buy it in their country of origin because these policies are very expensive in Italy. For students from countries which are members of the European Union some medical costs are generally covered by their national health service (do not forget to bring your European Health Insurance Card – EHIC!).
