La ragionevole durata del processo civile: uno studio di diritto comparato
2021
Il volume indaga il tema della ragionevole durata del processo civile, ponendo a raffronto le principali riforme adottate in Italia e in Inghilterra per ridurre i ritardi della giustizia nazionale in linea con l’art. 6 Cedu. La trattazione prende in esame l’assetto normativo e rimediale di ciascuno dei sistemi giuridici considerati guardando, in prospettiva diacronica, alle fonti legislative e giurisprudenziali, nonché agli indicatori internazionali e alle nuove tecnologie digitali, che mirano all’efficienza processuale. Il quadro così tracciato mette in luce la differente declinazione della ragionevolezza dei tempi del processo nei due ordinamenti europei, in risposta alla necessità di gar…

2015
This study investigates the influence of the European Human Rights Court on State 'margin of appreciation' on the diffusion of accepted or rejected cultural and political choices through the jurisprudence of the case-law. The margin of appreciation is aninterpretative argument, a criterion, a parameter, which allows the Court to preserve rather than censure national State policies and choices on difficult issues which, involving moral and ethical questions, and which do not receive common answers in the ,European legal systems. The work considers some decisions of the Court on abortion, ovum donation, pre-implant embryo analysis and artificial procreation techniques, to find out if, in such…
Lavoro e sicurezza sociale dei migranti economici: l'eguaglianza imperfetta
2021
Il saggio analizza i diritti dei migranti economici in Italia alla luce dei principi di eguaglianza e non discriminazione in chiave multilivello, in relazione ad accesso al lavoro, esecuzione del contratto e prestazioni di sicurezza sociale. Nella prospettiva dei diritti fondamentali del lavoratore il quadro normativo non è per nulla confortante: è estremamente difficile un ingresso regolare dei migranti sul territorio nazionale in virtù della legislazione di riferimento. Inoltre, sul versante dell’assistenza sociale il principio paritario soffre numerose eccezioni che di recente sono state avallate da un revirement del Giudice delle leggi nella sentenza 50/2019 in materia di assegno social…
Covid 19, Stato di diritto e Convenzione europea dei diritti dell'uomo: il caso ungherese
2021
In this brief intervention it is submitted that the emergency measures against COVID-19, adopted by the Hungarian Government, infringe the rule of law under the European Convention of Human Rights. First of all, these measures appear to be discriminatory, according to art. 1 of the Convention, insofar as they expressly aim at protecting only Hungarian citizens. Furthermore, they are not “necessary” under article 15, given that they extend to the « legal security and the stability of the national economy ». Thirdly, the measures at stake cannot be deemed proportionate (under art. 15), to the extent that : (a) they are not limited in time ; (b) they provide the government with the power to ex…
Corte edu e corte costituzionale tra operazioni di bilanciamento e precedente vincolante. Spunti teorico-generali e ricadute penalistiche.
2020
This article is divided into three parts. The subject is the complex connections between the test balancing of the Italian Constitutional Court and that of the CEDU Court. Balancing between interests protected by European Convention and interests protected by national constitutional system. The “ad hoc balancing” is the first type of test balancing, according to the author, applied by CEDU Court to many judicial cases, which argues that the value protected by the European Convention is superior to the value protected by the national State. In the second part of the article, the author shows some judicial cases as examples of his argumentation. In the third part, the author analyzes the case…
La diretta applicabilità dei trattati nell’ordinamento italiano: quo vadis?
2022
The concept of ‘direct applicability’ and ‘self-executing’ nature of international norms is still object of intense debate in the international legal scholarship. In Italy, such a debate has attracted new attention in the light of a recent ruling of the Joint Sections of the Court of Cassation, according to which the norms enshrined in the European Convention of Human Rights are not directly applicable in domestic proceedings. Such a statement seems to derive from some terminological and legal mis-understanding. By summarizing the conclusions of the several authors which have dealt with this issue in a Special Section of the review, the present article formulates some conclusions. First, it…
A New Technique for Implementing ECtHR Judgments: Will It Work? The Corte Costituzionale “Urges” the Houses to Reform the Ergastolo Ostativo
2021
In this much-awaited ruling (Order No. 97 of 15 April 2021), the Corte Costituzionale had to decide on the constitutionality of the existing prohibition on release on parole for life prisoners convicted for Mafia-related crimes, in the absence of any cooperation with justice (ergastolo ostativo). This form of life imprisonment without prospect of release had already been deemed in contrast with Article 3 of the European Convention of Human Rights (echr) in the judgment rendered by the Strasbourg Court in Viola v. Italy (No. 2): on that occasion, the ECtHR invoked a legislative reform of the ergastolo ostativo. In the order at hand, the Corte Costituzionale, instead of formally declaring the…

2016
Il lavoro si occupa dei rapporti tra diritto internazionale generale e sistema della Cedu, affrontando in particolare il problema di capire se la Corte edu abbia fatto ricorso al modello tradizionalmente usato nella giurisprudenza internazionale per stabilire condizioni e modalità di funzionamento delle norme generali nel sistema o se abbia elaborato una concezione un modello autonomo. This paper discusses the relationship between customary international law and the ECHR. The focus is the question whether this problem has been handled by the European Court of Human Rights through the model of relationship between customary law and treaty law which is commonly used by international judges an…
