IL LATO OSCURO DEL DIRITTO NELLA CRIMINALIZZAZIONE DEL SOCCORSO IN MARE
2021
L’ideale dell’integrità del diritto come definito da Ronald Dworkin, per cui una serie di valori di fondo condivisi da tutti gli attori in gioco garantiscono comunque che il margine per l’arbitrio delle autorità preposte all’elaborazione e all’applicazione del diritto sia limitato, appare oggi sempre più, per l’appunto, un ideale. È il lato oscuro del diritto, invece, che apre a margini di incertezza rilevanti per i quali è sempre più controverso definire e difendere giuridicamente le azioni commesse in circostanze determinate, quello che sembra in molti contesti prevalere. Il presente Special Issue, esito di un seminario organizzato dal Dipartimento di Giurisprudenza dell’Università degli …
Protection of Personal Data and Human Rights between the ECHR and the EU Legal Order
2020
The present paper deals with the relationship between privacy and data protection, having regard to the European Union and the European Convention of Human Rights. Such an analysis moves from the normative context (art. 8 ECHR and art. 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union). Moreover, the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and of the European Court of Human RIghts is taken into account, in order to enlighten the dfferent scopes of privacy and data protection.
Occupazione militare e tutela della proprietŕ privata
2012
Moving from the complementary relationship between International Humanitarian Law and International Human Rights Law, this article analyses the issue of private property in occupied territory from the civilians perspective. In the attempt to verify if contemporaneous practice has modified customary international law obligations of Occupying Powers, the Author highlights the complex and heterogeneous evolution of the protection of the right to private property. On the one hand, practice confirms the strengthening of its safeguard by the extensive interpretation of the absolute prohibition on confiscation, forbidding an occupying power to take "permanent" measures of dispossession and de fact…
Estado de derecho y práctica de los derechos humanos
2015
Esta contribución está dividida en dos partes. En la primera se tratará de los conceptos de estado de derecho y derechos humanos, así como de la relación entre ambos. En la segunda parte se observará el tema dentro del marco de la evolución del derecho, que lleva necesariamente a la evolución del estado de derecho. En la primera, el objetivo es mostrar que estado de derecho y derechos humanos suponen dos prácticas distintas pero complementarias, ambas capaces de realizar aspectos diversos de la justicia, ambas necesarias para que se pueda decir que un sistema jurídico es exitoso. El estado de derecho se coloca en el contexto de las modalidades de realización de decisiones comunes necesarias…
Antigone, today
2020
The tragedy of Antigone revolves around the theme of conflict. Both the version written by Sophocles and the one by Jean Anouilh are mainly focused on conflicts. The conflict between Antigone and Creon is real and symbolic at the same time. It is the conflict between a woman’s body and the law, between women’s and men’s conditions, between two anthropologies. It is also a conflict between two opposite ethical perspectives, and two opposite political visions. It is the conflict between the rule of individuals and the rule of laws, between non-violence and violence, social responsibility and individual egoism, and self-identification and identity. The conflict between Antigone and Creon is th…
Il diritto di voto secondo la Corte europea dei diritti dell'uomo e secondo la Corte comunitaria
2007
By two judgments of 12 september 2006 (Kingdom of Spain v. United Kingdom and Eman, Sevinger v. College van burgemeester en wethouders van Den Haag), the Court of Justice of the European Communities found that the provisions of the EC Treaty “contain no rule defining expressly and precisely who are to be entitled to the right to vote and stand as a candidate for the European Parliament”. As a con- senquence, in the current state of community law, the definition of these persons “falls within the competence of each Member State”. The Court pointed out that in the exercise of their competence Member States may not act contrary to EC law and in particular to the principle of equal treatment or…
The Social State Based on the Rule of Law in the Europe of Rights
2012
Chapter 8 shows how the idea of the social State under the rule of law has been linked to the European Union since its inception. The founding fathers (Adenaeur, de Gasperi, Monet, Schuman) set the principles of dignity, freedom, equality and solidarity as a way of freeing European citizens from fear, misery and misfortune. Welfare is, above all, a state of justice that defines the threshold between indecency and well-being and affirms that human development is not (only) economic growth. Jacques Maritain, whose influence on the European Union is well known, proclaimed the order that contains the three principles of the social state: the primacy of the person, the priority of civil society …
La sécurité, la fondation de l'Etat centrafricain : contribution à la recherche de l'Etat de droit
2012
“Ensuring order and security” is a deep-seated desire shared by the whole of humanity. It is therefore reasonable to devote this thesis to the place occupied by insecurity in public debate in the Central African Republic, a state covering roughly the same surface area as France. Security implies that the weight of fear or terror is removed. If order and security are to be genuinely ensured in the Central African Republic, more is required than the absence of bloodshed and the protection of each citizen’s physical integrity. It is also essential that the rights of all be respected and that all citizens should be entitled to the protection of their rights as well as their possessions. Legal s…
EUIPO Boards of Appeal in the Light of the Principle of Fair Trial
2022
The EUIPO’s Boards of Appeal are called upon to decide on appeals against decisions by the bodies of ‘first instance’. However, their judicial function has always been denied. Conversely, the essay tends to place the Boards of Appeal of the EUIPO in any case within the concept of ‘court’, as defined by the ECtHR, within the framework of Article 6 ECtHR, because it assesses their independence, impartiality, and in general the guarantees required by the ‘fair trial’, until concluding that it is a paradigmatic model in the overall administration and judicial system. EUIPO Boards of Appeal, European Court of Human Rights, Court of Justice of the Eurpean Union, EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, …
Access to Preventive Health Care for Undocumented Migrants: A Comparative Study of Germany, the Netherlands and Spain from a Human Rights Perspective
2016
The present study analyzes the preventive health care provisions for nationals and undocumented migrants in Germany, the Netherlands and Spain in light of four indicators derived from the United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights’ General Comment 14 (GC 14). These indicators are (i) immunization; (ii) education and information; (iii) regular screening programs; and (iv) the promotion of the underlying determinants of health. It aims to answer the question of what preventive health care services for undocumented migrants are provided for in Germany, the Netherlands and Spain and how this should be evaluated from a human rights perspective. The study reveals that the ac…
