Course Content (Syllabus)
The subject of the course taught in the first semester is the basic principles, methods and fundamental problems of substantive land law, as they are reflected in theory and case law. The extrajudicial and judicial ways of resolving cadastral disputes, mainly concerning the correction of initial or subsequent cadastral records, are systematised. Basic cadastral terms (cadastral records, diagrams, etc.) and principles (e.g. open cadastre, cadastral efficiency) are specialised and analysed, for the sake of understanding and resolving the issues that concern and divide Greek jurisprudence.
