Study Abroad UW Program Name: 
LSJ/Pol S in Rome 2025: Comparative Legal Cultures and Individual Rights: Italy, U.S. and Europe
 
General Info:
LSJ/Pol S In Rome takes place in the heart of Rome, Italy. Students live in apartments near the UW Rome Center where classes are held. The program aims to help students examine different legal cultures and institutions in Italy, the United States, and the European Union (EU). In the classroom we explore the history, theoretical underpinnings, and lived reality of different legal systems, as well as the social, cultural, and ideological forces that have shaped their development. The Italian language learning component to the program is designed to promote cultural sensitivity and awareness. Outside of the classroom we undertake cooking lessons, trips to museums and sites such as the Supreme Court, which compliment the primary content of the course.
