The Master’s Program in Law at FUMEC University has an area of concentration that is: Social Institutions, Law and Democracy. It refers to the study of complex, self-reproducing social forms, such as governments, the family, human languages, universities, hospitals, businesses, and legal systems.
Against this background, legal norms are produced, applied and understood. In view of the complexity of the study of democratic theories in post-traditional societies, the legal phenomenon can be understood in the light of varied theoretical foundations.
The area of concentration of the course seeks theoretical and conceptual expansion that overcomes the limiting epistemological bases. Consequently, the area of concentration in focus is instigating and challenging with new proposals for understanding and interpreting Social Institutions to be rebuilt in the political arena of constitutional democracy.
In short, it is a matter of redesigning a new social pact, which implies the re-equation of the role of the State in society, as well as the need for full and effective protection of the individual in the face of any and all forms of power (“old” or “new”, public or private).
