| Course contents : | This course is devoted to the legal aspects of public finance. Another course, called "Public Finance" given by Professor B. JURION focuses on the economic analysis of public finance.
Thus, we concentrate mainly on the legal rules relating to the budget, the way a budget is prepared, adopted and executed, as well as the legal framework of public borrowing.
This analysis regards the central level of government (Federal State) and the regional levels of government (Communities and Regions).
Collaborators will frequently bring their practical experience. |
|
| Course objective : | There are two main goals pursued. The first one is theoretical. Everyone interested in public and political life, be it a lawyer or a student in political science, should be aware of the system of complex legal rules relating to the public spending. Public resources (tax income f.i.) are studied from a budgetary point of view.
On a more practical level, this matter is very often part of the various exams organized in order to enter the administrations and the public sector. |
|
| Prerequisites : | Especially for foreign and SOCRATES students: admission on an ad hoc, case by case basis. Contact must be taken with the Professor. |
|
| Organization : | Course during the second semester ; 2 1/2 h lecture weekly.
As there are not too many students (about 20), all questions may be directly discussed during the lectures. |
|
| Written notes : | Oral lectures with powerpoint support.
Some documents will be given to the the students.
Student are invited to find themselves some documents (internet, law library)
Parts of a syllabus under construction will be probably distributed.
Students must take notes personally. Active presence is thus indispensable. |
|
| Assessment : | Oral exam.
The exam is "open book". The student may bring all the relevant material (personal notes, files, legal texts, and so on).
The purpose of the exam is to appreciate a real understanding and a sound method of reasoning in the field. |
