Students know the specific (lexical, syntactical, textual and conventional) characteristics of Dutch legal language. Students can enumerate them and describe them in their own words. They do not have to give technical linguistic definitions. Students can indicate how and to what extent these characteristics can cause communication problems.
Students can themselves point out those characteristics in legal texts, assess whether they obstruct the communication and correct them if necessary, thus enhancing the comprehension of the text and its structure.
Students know the main conventions and writing strategies for the most important legal text types (letters, judgements, legislative texts) and can apply them.

Course content
Legal argumentation theory:
The course consists of 4 parts. In the first part, students will be introduced into the elementary elements of an argumentation. Here, the link with formal logic is evident (modus ponens, modus tollens,…)
The second part is dedicated to the study of errors of thought. In this part, we will go into social-psychological experiments.
The third part deals with the structure of an argumentation and with rhetoric.
Finally, we will have a closer look at some specific features of legal reasoning.
Dutch legal language In the first three lectures, students are offered an introduction in the communication problems of Dutch legal language, the historical and actual causes of those problems and the difficulties of determining the Dutch language norm in Belgium. The following classes deal with the lexical, syntactic, textual and conventional problems of legal language. Each time, exercises are made in order to learn to recognize and if possible to amend those problems. A preparation and an active participation during the classes is expected. In the last classes, the characteristics of a number of legal text types are dealt with. Furthermore, it is tried to clarify the structure and to enhance the communicative value of those texts. Debate Students are offered the possibility to get used to specific problems having juridical relevance and discuss them in group. The subject matter concerns often current problems treated in recent legislation and parliamentary debates; their analysis elucidates not only the technical aspects but emphazises the historical, social, economical, ethical backgrounds of the law

The Advanced Course on Constitutional Law treats every year another topic concerning constitutional principles and public institutions. This year the topic is "democracy", dealing with the Belgian consensus model, the relations between language groups, between parliemant and executive, the role of the judiciary and the position of the citizen. We will also treat topical developments, such as the recent government crisis. Also we will look for a more contemporary concept of democracy, adapted to constitutional developments in a context of multilevel governance.
