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).
Alcune riflessioni sull’indipendenza giudiziaria nel contesto europeo
2023
This article aims to provide some reflections on the links between judiciary independence, the rule of law, and the role of judges both national and European. First of all, it focuses on the evolution of the role of the judge in the constitutional and European systems. Then, it shows how the European Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights have developed criteria to ensure the independence of judges, analysing them. Moreover, it examines the criteria that have been developed by the European courts and by the opinions of the Consultative Council of European Judges about the independence of the Judiciary Councils.
Unfair Terms, Protective Nullity and Court’s Powers: Certain Reference Points after Jőrös’ and Asbeek Brusse’s Rulings
2015
Review. The article examines the cases of Jőrös (Case C- 397/11,) and Asbeek Brusse,(case C‑488–11), both dated 30 may 2013, as a starting point for a more general analysis of the ECJ’s approach to the legal consequences to be drawn by the national Court from finding that a contractual term is unfair. The work focuses on the question of whether the interest of the consumer — at the basis of the remedy under consideration — is compatible with the general public interest and with the duty of the National Court to declare the nullity of its own motion, perhaps in contrast with the individual interest of the party. The paper criticizes the “Pannon ruling”, and points out how the more recent Ban…
Striking a Balance among Security, Privacy and Competition. The Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014 (DRIP)
2015
Following the ECJ decision that declared the Data Retention Directive invalid, the Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014 (DRIP) has been enacted. It is not indisputable whether the DRIP gives more powers to the intelligence services at the detriment of both citizens’ privacy and freedom of enterprise or whether it simply clarifies the nature and extent of obligations that can be imposed on telecommunications service providers based outside the UK under Part 1 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA). The article provides news also on Data Retention Regulations 2014, R (David Davis MP and Tom Watson MP) v Secretary of State for the Home Department and the proposed…
L'orario di lavoro nel diritto dell'Unione Europea
2015
L’articolo analizza la normativa europea in materia di orario di lavoro (dir. 2003/88/CE) per come interpretata dalla Corte di Giustizia. Più in particolare vengono discusse le nozioni di orario e tempi di lavoro e la regolamentazione di ferie, lavoro notturno, riposi giornalieri e settimanali, e le discipline speciali; specifica attenzione è dedicata alle deroghe che secondo la direttiva possono essere apportate dall’autonomia collettiva ed individuale alla disciplina legale, per sottolineare come il diritto dell’Unione abbia determinato una marcata liberalizzazione dei tempi di lavoro. The present work analyses the EU legislative framework on working time (dir. 2003/88/EC) and the related…

2017
indagine in tema di libertà di espressone che parte dalle origini del costituzionalismo contemporaneo e si muove poi lungo le coordinate relative alla giurisprudenza della Corte suprema statunitense e delle Corti europee, nel processo di transizione dell’esercizio di diritti e libertà fondamentali dal mondo degli atomi a quello dei bit. investigation on the subject of freedom of expression that starts from the origins of contemporary constitutionalism and then moves along the coordinates relating to the jurisprudence of the US Supreme Court and the European Courts, in the transition process of the exercise of fundamental rights and freedoms from the world of atoms to that of bits.

Pro e contro dei rimedi domestici: prospettive di sinergia europea nel contenzioso climatico collettivo
2023
Human rights-based national climate litigation is a growing phenomenon. In Europe, this type of litigation is essentially based on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, whose human rights obligations are used as a means of interpreting climate obligations of States towards their citizens. The analysis of domestic jurisprudence produces a complex picture. On the one hand, we find elements facilitating access to environmental justice, such as more flexible eligibility criteria and the issuing of immediately enforceable judgments. On the other hand, this comes up against obstacles arising from the risk of the lack of impact that a single decision may have. A possible solution to …
