Democrazia deliberativa e Convenzione europea dei diritti umani
2010
Deliberative democracy and the European Convention on Human Rights Theories of deliberative democracy have rapidly become very popular amongst political scientists. The central argument of these theories is that democratic legitimacy of lawmaking does not lie (or does not only lie) in the elected character of Parliaments but in public delib- eration processes. Decisions have to be justified by reasons and reasons have to be publicly debated. Legitimacy also depends on the opportunity for citizens to participate effectively in public debates. In this paper I argue that the European Court of Human Rights can be a key player in promoting a democracy based on public deliberation and that in the…
La herida original de las políticas de inmigración : A propósito del lugar de los derechos humanos en las políticas de inmigración
2002
El artículo plantea algunas condiciones que permitan superar las dos posiciones en las que parece alternativamente preso el debate actual sobre la inmigración: la visión instrumental, torpemente pragmática, y la «humanitaria», anclada en la conmiseración o la piedad. Para alcanzar la dimensión política es preciso superar un análisis de los flujos migratorios erróneo, el que está en la base de ambas posiciones. Y si se supera esa visión, se superarán los actuales instrumentos jurídicos de política de inmigración, que no son acordes con el reconocimiento pleno y la garantía de los derechos humanos fundamentales, pero tampoco con el necesario reconocimiento de la condición de sujeto del espaci…
The European Union in a Changing World Order: What Is at Stake?
2019
This introductory chapter aims to shed light on how tightly the EU and the liberal international order are entwined and discuss the likely impact on the EU of a changing and, most likely, less liberal world order. The chapter discusses the concept of order in international politics and analyses how the liberal order that emerged after WWII has effected the development of the EU. The chapter introduces the book’s interdisciplinary, holistic approach, and discusses how a changing world order is affecting the EU and how the EU, in turn, is trying to shape the emerging new order by recalibrating its policies and actions in various domains, ranging from its relations with the rest of the world, …
"Me llaman el desaparecido" : coexistencia y continuidad entre la desaparición forzada y la desaparición social
2020
En este trabajo analizo una de las formas del desborde contemporáneo de la categoría de "desaparición", por la cual ésta pasa a designar formas de invisibilidad, exclusión y violencia muy diferentes a la que definía su marco originario. En particular, me detengo en el trazado de una relación de continuidad entre las formas de la desaparición forzada originaria -ejemplificada en el caso emblemático de la dictadura militar chilena- y las formas de "desaparición social" en las democracias liberales contemporáneas. A partir de la puesta en relación de conceptos políticos como campo, doctrina del shock o excepción, y del análisis de algunos productos culturales, exploramos la posibilidad de habl…
La scuola e la società in John Dewey ai tempi della pandemia da Covid-19
2022
La pedagogia di John Dewey può essere oggi intesa come una risorsa utile per fronteggiare il periodo complesso e drammatico caratterizzato dalla pandemia da Covid-19. È per questo motivo che il contributo, attraverso alcuni riferimenti alle opere più significative della prospettiva deweyana, intende riflettere sull’attualità del pensiero deweyano, facendo un esplicito riferimento alla sulla sua idea di democrazia come a way of life e ponendo in risalto in che modo le scuole possano contribuire a fronteggiare circostanze complesse come quelle attuali, progettando e realizzando dei processi educativi mirati alla trasmissione e alla sperimentazione dei principi democratici e alla formazione di…
THE SCHOOL AT THE SERVICE OF THE SOCIETY: CONSEQUENCES FOR THE "NEW WORLD"
2022
Introduction In this article I shall seek to demonstrate the remarkable contemporary relevance of John Dewey’s pedagogic ideas, found in publications such as My Pedagogic Creed, The School and Society and Democracy and Education. Through a brief analysis of these works I will highlight how much Dewey believed in a school that is connected to society and which places itself at its service, contributing to the birth or consolidation of a democracy understood not just as a form of government, but as a way of life. In view of this analysis and in light of the present pandemic caused by COVID-19, I will consider the importance today of the school. Following Dewey, I will take into account the ro…
La religione laica di John Dewey e di Aldo Capitini
2021
The contribution proposes an analysis on a subject that, today, appears more controversial than ever and full of ideas for reflection for the pedagogical world: the religion. This will be done through a reference to the theoretical contribution of John Dewey, who, presenting the terminology difference between the word "religion" and "religiousness", has disseminated the idea of a secular religion, whose values, transcending the boundaries of multiple religious confessions, can be fulfilled by all, contributing to the realization of democratic society. The deweyan approach will be compared to that of Aldo Capitini who, in a similar way to the American thinker, has promoted a form of secular …

Los derechos en el Estado constitutional
2019
Il volume fornisce un quadro complessivo dell’insieme dei diritti fondamentali – in generale, dei diritti, principi e valori costituzionalmente sanciti – negli odierni Stati costituzionali, e dei problemi concettuali, teorici e normativi che essi suscitano. In particolare il loro essere eterogenei, largamente indeterminati, sovente confliggenti o reciprocamente incommensurabili, rende necessario, in sede di applicazione, determinazione e bilanciamento.
Swarming : An Investigation Practice Supporting a Bottom-up Ecological Transition
2022
Dans cet article, nous rendons compte des pratiques d’essaimage d’initiatives locales de transition portées par des collectifs citoyens et associatifs en région Bourgogne Franche-Comté. L’essaimage, défini comme une façon d’enquêter pour agir, caractérise un « activisme environnemental du faire » qui se structure de manière réticulaire et translocale. Ces multiples initiatives qui font des gestes du quotidien un levier de transformation écologique s’activent avec ou sans les institutions territoriales. Celles-ci, indépendamment de l’écho qu’elles renvoient à ces expérimentations, sont interpellées dans leur manière de concevoir l’action publique sous contrainte écologique forte.
