The course provides students with an introduction to public law. The course starts with the phenomenon of dualism of law and the distinction between public and private law. Public law is taught from the perspective of the major systems of public law existing in Europe. The course pursues the issue of public law not from the perspective of the state, nor from the perspective of the institutional arrangements of the power holders, but from the perspective of the individual. The individual is always in an unequal position in public law relations. Therefore, the fundamental institutions that guarantee the realisation of the rights of the individual in public law relations - namely, dignity, freedoms, equality, solidarity, civil rights and justice - are the axis of interpretation. The interpretation is also devoted to the question of the right to self-government in the context of European legal traditions. Finally, attention is paid to current issues of public law, in particular the introduction of artificial intelligence and migration.

The written exam consists of two parts. The first consists of five theoretical questions on the information the student has learned in lectures. The second part is based on the solution of a practical example, which the student must solve with the help of a rule given to him/her. For the examination, a specific legal regulation from the prescribed ones that will be made available to the students can be used, but other materials cannot be used.
