Il doppio mito: sulla (pretesa) neutralità della politica monetaria della BCE e la (pretesa) non-vincolatività degli indirizzi di politica economica dell’Unione

Policies adopted by the governance of the EMU during the financial and Covid crises display a clear gap between the “form” and the “substance” of the institutional architecture of title VIII of the TFEU. It is submitted that this architecture is in sharp contrast with the European constitutional tradition. Furthermore, the traditional view is rejected, according to which the EU Commission and Council, as well as the ECB, are devoid of binding powers in the field of economic policy. Some reflections concerning both methodological implications of the foregoing and its possible effects on the European integration process are finally developed

Hate Speech e messaggi discriminatori: riflessioni internazionalistiche sul caso Casapound c. Facebook

In this intervention the idea is submitted that the interim measures in the case Casapound v. Facebook, by means of which Fb Ireland was ordered by the Rome Tribunal (on December 12, 2019) to reactivate the profile of the extreme right wing political association Casapound - previously closed as a consequence of an alleged violation of fb standards concerning hate speech - can be criticized under international and european law. Such criticisms stem both from the overall picture of the international and european legal standards concerning hate speech (par. 2) and from the relevant case law of the European Court of Human rights (paras. 3 and 4).
