The first part of the course aims to illustrate and analyze both international rules and actors of the global governance of collective security. The main goal is to provide students with an overview of the most important legal instruments, the practice of States and international organizations and the relevant case-law of international courts and tribunals on the use of force in international relations. At the end of this part of the course, students should be able to grasp multilevel governance challenges in the complex field of global security.

The second module explores the impact on individuals of security measures adopted at international level. The aim is to highlight the legal problems and dilemmas arising when an international measure or decision is addressed not (only) to States but (also) to individuals. When this individual impact occurs, the traditional dichotomy between international and domestic law becomes obsolete, along with the corresponding guarantees and accountability tools. The resulting problems of interactions between different sources of law (international, EU and national) will be analyzed through the lenses of Global administrative law.

D1 - Knowledge and understanding
The course aims to provide the student with knowledge and understanding on the following profiles:
1. the impact on individuals of security measures adopted at international level
2. the legal problems arising when an international measure is addressed to an individual
3. the problems arising from the interaction between different sources of law (international, EU and national)
4. the contribution of Global administrative law to a better understanding of the interaction between international and domestic security regimes.

D2 - Ability to apply knowledge and understanding
At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
1. find a judgment of the Court of Justice on the subject, analyze and interpret it through a correct identification of its rationale;
2. find and analyze, even critically, a jurisprudential decision of the Court of Justice of the EU on the subject.

D3 - Autonomy of judgment
At the end of the course, the student will be able to analyze and reconstruct different and possibly alternative interpretative options in order to a judicial decision.

D4 - Communication skills
At the end of the course, the student will have to illustrate the problems and interactions referred to in D1.

D5 - Learning Skills
At the end of the course, the student should be able to find and analyze independently the legislation and the jurisprudential orientations of the European Union on the subject.
