Výukové metody
The course is divided into two educational schemes - into lectures and seminars. While the lectures are aimed at theoretical aspects of the subject (the concept of judicialization, or the attitudes between the theories of intl. relations and international law), the seminars (the students are expected to prepare for them several written position papers) demand active and more practical knowledge of the issues (e. g. the ability to find, interpret and understand the case-law of selected judicial bodies). The students ability to bring and defend their own arguments is practiced within the teachers directed and moderated class discussion.
Metody hodnocení
The course is finished by written exam. Students have to prepare 4 position papers on cases and selected academic literature in the course of the semester.
