Academic boycott between university autonomy and the legality of public administrations

Abstract

The paper examines academic boycotts in light of the principles of freedom of teaching, university autonomy, and the right to scientific cooperation, with particular attention to the risks such practices may entail for academic pluralism. Within this framework, the analysis focuses on the legal and administrative aspects concerning the suspension and termination of inter-university cooperation agreements, highlighting the need for decisions that are duly reasoned and in full compliance with the principles of legality and impartiality.
