Corso di laurea: Politica Globale e delle Relazioni Euromediterranee (Global Politics and Euro-Mediterranean Relations) Programmazione per l'A.A. 2016/2017

La prima parte del corso si focalizza sulla storia del Nord Africa dall’invasione francese dell’Egitto nel 1798. L’attenzione è rivolta non soltanto agli attori europei come artefici del cambiamento ma anche alle élite politiche modernizzatrici, al riformismo islamico e ai movimenti nazionali. L’esperienza coloniale è indagata evidenziando tratti comuni e specificità territoriali e rilevandone l’impatto nel lungo termine.

La seconda parte del corso è incentrata sui processi di indipendenza e i successivi decenni. La persistenza di una relazione di tipo coloniale con l’Occidente, le politiche economiche (socialiste e liberali), l’autoritarismo, le ideologie panarabe e islamiste sono tutti fenomeni oggetto di studio.

Per identificare gli aspetti cruciali della Politica del Mediterraneo, il Modulo 1 analizza le relazioni tra attori globali e regionali (UE, USA, paesi della sponda Sud ma anche Russia e Cina), attori statali e non statali (partiti politici, organizzazioni della società civile, movimenti transnazionali). Il modulo affronta i processi politici più rilevanti dell’area: PEM/UpM, PEV, Processo di pace in MO, Dialogo Mediterraneo della NATO, ecc. Le letture (prevalentemente articoli di riviste accademiche) sono selezionate annualmente per seguire gli eventi più recenti.

Il modulo traccia il cammino storico del giusnaturalismo moderno con particolare riferimento al passaggio verso una concezione secolare via via crescente della legge di natura e del diritto di natura che va da Grozio a Kant. Questo passaggio è segnato dalla nascita di due teorie corrispondenti: uno Stato di natura laico in cui le persone implicitamente si impegnano nella costituzione della società civile e uno stato di natura internazionale in cui gli stati esplicitamente si impegnano per la costituzione di trattati di diritto internazionale. Questa parte del corso esamina come queste nuove teorie impieghino sia concezioni tradizionali che innovative dei diritti e dei doveri degli individui, delle comunità, degli Stati, e della società internazionale nel suo complesso.

Il presente modulo analizza un altro importante momento storico che segna il passaggio dalla legge naturale e dal diritto naturale ai diritti umani. Esso prende in esame la ridefinizione del concetto di diritti , intesi come diritti umani attraverso la Rivoluzione Americana e la Rivoluzione Francese. Questa parte del programma si concluderà con alcune letture che offrono valutazioni divergenti su queste rivoluzioni , tenendo in considerazione comunque quanto esse abbiano contribuito ad influenzare le moderne concezioni sui diritti umani.

Sebbene nelle questioni internazionali e globali si faccia spesso riferimento alla nozione di diritti umani, la base filosofica su cui questi diritti riposano (ammesso che ve ne sia una), il loro aspirare a un consenso universale, la loro capacità di essere una sorta di religione secolarizzata per il nostro tempo pongono problemi teorici enormi. Tali questioni sono oggi al centro del dibattito tra filosofi, teorici delle relazioni internazionali, operatori e politici. Il modulo intende introdurre gli studenti a tale dibattito per stimolare una loro riflessione critica e competente. In particolare, si studieranno le teorie filosofiche sui diritti umani che sono oggi al centro del dibattito e che hanno tentato di dare una risposta alla presunta 'fondazione' dei diritti umani, ossia al perché questi debbano davvero essere considerati diritti che spettano agli uomini meramente in virtù della loro umanità.

Facendo tesoro del lavoro teorico svolto, il presente modulo offre un'applicazione delle varie teorie filosofiche studiate a problemi concreti della politica globale tra cui il diritto di intervento umanitario, ormai meglio noto come "responsabilità di proteggere", il rapporto tra diritti umani, cultura islamica e in generale le culture non occidentali, il rapporto tra diritti umani e democrazia e tra questi e l'egualitarismo.
