Respingimenti a catena e tutela cautelare del diritto d’asilo. Le ordinanze del Tribunale di Roma sulle ‘riammissioni informali’ in Slovenia

2021

On the 3rd of May, the Rome Tribunal accepted the complaint lodged by the Ministry of Interior against the interim measure with which, last January, the same Court declared the illegitimacy of the procedure of migrants and asylum seekers informal readmission in Slovenia, because of the violation inter alia of the principle of non-refoulement. Despite the negative outcome for the asylum seekers, the order of the complaint did not refute the reasoning of the judge of the first instance who, for the first time, recognized the entry protection by issuing an urgent precautionary measure. This contribution focuses on the recent tendency of States’ national Courts to provide protection, including …

A “Principle-Based” Approach to Intervention by Invitation in Civil Wars

2019

This contribution challenges the idea of the existence of a one-size-fits-all rule that always prohibits or permits outside forcible intervention upon the request of a government engaged in a civil war. Civil wars are complex situations. It seems quite unrealistic to make abstractions of the “topography” of the conflict between the legal principles concretely at stake in each case. Indeed, if self-determination is the main rationale behind the thesis of strict-abstentionism, an important question to ask is whether self-determination always represents an obstacle to external intervention in civil wars to support the established government. Furthermore, the principle of negative equality is s…

Come e quando le norme internazionali operano negli ordinamenti statali

2023

In this chapter the main issues concerning legal effects of international legal rules in domestic orders are examined in a systematic way. This investigation is underpinned by the following five pillars. First, the idea that States are not bound by international obligations in this respect. Second, that despite the persistent (albeit limited) importance of formal models of incorporation of international law into domestic law, a central role is played by domestic courts, with particular regard to the identification of self-"executing" rules. Third, that international legal rules may sometimes produce legal effects in domestic orders, even in the absence of a formal incorporation into domesti…

The impact of sea-level rise on baselines: a question of interpretation of the UNCLOS or evolution of customary law?

2022

In the framework of the broader question of the adverse impact of sea-level rise on low-lying coastal and archipelagic States, the specific question of the effects on baselines has been receiving increasing attention in the international debate. The question is whether, once a State has determined its baselines by a legislative or administrative act, these lines are fixed and will not be altered by any subsequent physical change due to the SLR. In other words, could baselines be opposable to other States regardless of a substantial change in the configuration of the coasts? Or, on the contrary, are baselines ambulatory so that in case of inundation of coastal areas, the baselines will move …

French Vaccine Pass to the Test of the Constitutional Council: Some Considerations in the Light of the European Convention on Human Rights

2022

On 21 January 2022 the French Constitutional Council issued a ruling on the constitutionality of the law which aimed to make the access to a very large number of places subject to a vaccine pass. Firstly, the essay illustrates the main points of the ruling with a particular focus on the legal criteria which constituted the parameters used by the French Constitutional Council, including a short explanation of the legal provisions rejected. The article then analyses the most recent judgement of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) which regarded mandatory vaccinations. Specifically, the judgment focuses on the recent case Vavři¹ka and Others v. the Czech Republic which explained the mai…

State Sovereignty: Balancing Effectiveness and Legality/Legitimacy

2018

This chapter aims to examine one of the most interesting topics in the contemporary internationalist debate, namely the crisis of effectiveness as the ultimate or sufficient criterion for achieving statehood and territorial sovereignty. Since the 1970s the perception that international law can no longer accept social reality as it is but promotes and imposes standards of justice and common values has become increasingly widespread. More recently, the ensuing discussion between realists and legalists emerged as one of the central topics addressed within the framework of the advisory procedure concerning Kosovo’s declaration of independence. By discussing and critically appraising the normati…

Gruppi minoritari, diritto internazionale dei diritti umani e discorso giudiziale

2009

Gaetano Pentassuglia, dopo avere individuato quattro differenti fasi della protezione giuridica internazionale delle minoranze, mette in luce la posizione assunta dalla tutela delle minoranze nel quadro della più generale tutela dei diritti umani e allo scopo di prevenire i conflitti a livello internazionale. Per quanto riguarda le pratiche giuridiche rilevanti, l’autore sottolinea come la giurisprudenza a livello interno, regionale e internazionale abbia rappresentato il maggiore fattore di radicamento di una tutela effettiva, e secondo modalità che hanno spesso scardinato i meccanismi giuridici istituzionalizzati. Dallo studio della giurisprudenza in materia di minoranze si nota che le co…
