Hate Speech e messaggi discriminatori: riflessioni internazionalistiche sul caso Casapound c. Facebook
2021
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).

2013

Il caso Hoodia: successo o fallimento? La protezione giuridica delle conoscenze tradizionali
2012
Il presente articolo analizza gli elementi giuridici e politico-strategici del famoso caso di biopirateria della Hoodia gordonii. Il caso è normalmente citato come esempio di successo della collaborazione tra case farmaceutiche e comunità indigene in merito all’utilizzo delle conoscenze tradizionali. Sulla base di ricerche bibliografiche e sul campo, il testo ne descrive lo svolgimento e ne svela alcuni dei non pochi e spesso tralasciati lati oscuri, domandandosi non solo se sia necessario metterne in dubbio il tanto professato successo, ma anche se l’attuale regime giuridico per la protezione delle conoscenze tradizionali sia adeguato ed efficace.
Entre controle du respect de la légalité conventionnelle et promotion de la légitimité démocratique: la Cour européenne des droits de l'homme face au…
2013
L'articolo esamina il contributo della Corte europea dei diritti umani ai processi di transizione democratica con particolare attenzione ai Paesi dell'Est europeo. Dall'analisi della giurisprudenza della Corte non emerge una visione unitaria del concetto di "transizione democratica", che viene in rilievo talvolta come un fatto, altre volte come un valore. La stessa "transizione - valore", poi, non è concepita in temini unitari, dato che la democrazia può essere intesa come "aperta" o come "militante". Il contributo si propone, pertanto, di comprendere se nella giurisprudenza della Corte sia possibile riscontrare, se non altro, la ricerca di un punto di equilibrio tra queste diverse nozioni.
International Law, War and Human Rights: The Humanitarian Response
2013
One of the most important issues in the international political and legal system comprises the interaction between human rights and humanitarian law. In particular, the separate treatment of such areas of law allows to delineate different contents and application procedures, while the joint consideration is not simple, in view of the reasons for which each of the two has been created. Humanitarian law is a set of rules of conduct limited to a political and legal situation pathological, and presumably temporary. Against this regulatory system, the international law of human rights is the establishment of a political and legal concept of man as endowed with certain inalienable rights that con…
Women’s rights and gender equality during the COVID-19 pandemic
2021
This paper contributes to the existing literature by investigating the scope of States’ obligations to realise women’s rights and ensure gender equality amid the COVID-19 pandemic. To this end, the analysis focuses on three areas where the gendered consequences of emergency measures have been the most widespread and/or severe: the disproportionate impact of social distancing policies enacted to curb the spread of the virus on women’s right to work (Section 2); the increased rates of gender-based domestic violence triggered by stay-at-home mandates and other emergency measures restricting the movement of people (Section 3); and the uniquely adverse consequences of the diversion of health res…
The European Courts and the Security Council: Between Dédoublement Fonctionnel and Balancing of Values: a Rejoinder to Grainne de Burca, André Nollka…

* Professor of International Law, University of Naples ‘ Federico II ’ . Email: padesena@tin.it ; Associate Professor of International Law, University of Palermo. Email: chiara.vitucci@unipa.it 1 Nollkaemper, ‘ The European Courts and the Security Council: Between Dedoublement Fonctionnel and Balancing of Values: A Reply to De Sena and Vitucci ’ , 20 EJIL (2009) 862. Andre Nollkaemper, Grainne de Burca and Iris Canor have made a number of critical observations which are – in part at least – interesting and useful. A full examination of them would probably demand more time and more space than we have been given here. Nevertheless, we will try to reply to some of their remarks and to clear up…
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…
The Contribution of the Inter-American Human Rights Bodies to Evolving International Law on Indigenous Rights over Lands and Natural Resources
2010
AbstractBecause of the special relationship with land that characterises indigenous groups, rights over land and natural resources are at the heart of indigenous claims under international law. The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the Inter-American Court have developed a copious jurisprudence on the subject matter and contributed to the establishment of certain minimum indigenous peoples' land rights under customary international law. This article analyses the Inter-American judicial discourse on land issues in the light of the current status of relevant international law and reflects upon the potential contribution of the former to the further development of the latter. It fo…
