This course examines the nature, history, and sources of Canon Law in the Catholic Church. It presents an overview of the norms provided in the 1983 Code of Canon Law and relevant complementary canonical legislation. This course will focus on general norms (Book I), the People of God (Book II), the teaching munus of the Church (Book III), temporal goods (Book V). Given the current circumstances and issues about the Catholic Church's sexual abuse crisis, a brief presentation of penal law (Book VI) and processes (Book VII) will be offered. This course is recommended as a foundational background for "Canon Law of the Sacraments."
