10-15 September 2007 - San Domenico di
Fiesole (Florence)
LeX is an intensive, 6-day program that requires participants' total dedication and intellectual commitment. The program's learning process assists participants to develop both knowledge and skills in using and manging shared or interoperable standards for legislative document enabling access, communication, processing, and integration of legislation through IT technologies, in an open and cooperative framework.
Standards concern different aspects of legislation: abstract (logical) ways of identifying legislative documents, ways of structuring legislative documents and data, ways of dealing with changes in the law, ways of distinguishing and representing the different stages of the life cycle of a law text (from first drafts, to parliamentary discussions, to amendments, to subsequent modifications), ways of defining and applying conceptual classifications to law texts, ways of building executable representations of legislative knowledge.
All of these aspects will be addressed in the school, which aims at providing knowledge of the most significant standards emerging for legislation, an understanding of their impact in the different phases of the legislative process, awareness of the technologies based on legislative standards, and the ability to participate in the preparation and use of standard-compliant documents throughout the law-making process.
