European food law
(objectives)
In recent years, food regulation has become the subject of widespread studies, and food law has acquired the nature and consistency of a unitary disciplinary body, organized by principles as well as by purpose, transversal with respect to the traditional distribution by regulatory sources. Food legislation, made up of innumerable minimal precepts, declined on the technical side and substantially intended for the exclusive interpretation of a strictly understood food industry and public controllers vested with sanctioning functions, has been replaced by a complex set of principles, addressed to a much larger audience than the traditional one. In this way, the food law of today manifests itself as a European law by its very nature, as an expression of the dialogue between multiple regulatory sources, and at the same time stands as a decisive constitutive element of a broader foundational event. The course aims to allow the student to acquire skills and knowledge, "tools", in this disciplinary field, so as to be able to operate both within private companies in the sector and within public institutions. In particular, the objective is that the student can acquire: - knowledge and ability to directly understand the legislation applicable to the sector, through direct reading and commenting on the applicable rules; - ability to use the knowledge thus acquired in the context of their future work experiences, also through the examination of practical cases; - ability to draw conclusions with respect to new cases that may arise in his experience, through the construction of models and case studies; - communication skills, which include the ability to transmit to the interlocutors, first in the context of the study and subsequently in the professional experiences, the knowledge thus acquired regarding the rules of production, processing and marketing of food products; - ability to learn also for the future. The regulation of food products, in fact, is subject to continuous transformations and modifications. The course aims to make the student acquire an adequate knowledge of the discipline in force today, but also the ability to know directly the changes that this discipline will have in the future.
