The student will enable familiarity with the foreign legal provisions, and with the choices made by the juges in case law. Comparison with common law systems will allow noticing unexpected cultural analogies hidden behind different concepts and categories, revealing convergences in the solutions for the same cases ruled within different legal systems.
