Comments/contents:
Political goals, how they are laid out in governmental programs or agreements of political coalitions, have to be accommodated into bills, acts, administrative directives or other state rules.
Parliaments, governments and administrative agencies will then often be dependent on counsel and support, especially by the drafting of laws and other legal norms. Practically this will often be done by legal practitioners, as they are experienced in applying laws and rules.
However, other proficiency and expertise are needed when devising a law (for the first time) that differ from interpretation and application of given bills.
How does one draft a law, a treaty, an act, a statute or an administrative directive, in order to ensure that it will comprise all thinkable cases and that it will reach the political goal under the given –possibly uncertain and constantly changing– circumstances?
What kind of support do the traditional theories of lawmaking and lawful formality as well as more recent theoretical attempts like Governance or Regulatory Choice have to offer?
This seminar takes on these questions of “correct”, “good” or even “sustainable” regulation from an interdisciplinary and practical point of view.
The students will achieve the skill and proficiency for conceptual design, development and draft of laws and other state regulations (including extensive compliance management) on the basis of exercises concerning political goals of currents governments, like labor and economic policy, equality, environmental and climate policy.
The goal is above all the development of a bill in several steps over the course of the semester which the students will most likely work on in groups.This course will start with a first analysis of the political task following the strategic choice of a matching regulatory structure until the bill can be written down, including its justification.
