Human Rights in Romanian Courts: A European Perspective?
2016
The perception and application of the European Convention on Human Rights by various national jurisdictions depends fundamentally on the way in which the Convention has been introduced into national law, as well as, in some countries, by how constitutional jurisdictions shaped this relationship. The article examines the reception of the Convention by a few European states, with a special regard on the case of Romania. Romanian courts, including the Constitutional Court and the supreme court, had a hesitant approach of the principle established by 1991 Constitution of the priority of international law of human rights over domestic law. In the context of the diversity of sources of the Europe…

Inquisitio Contra Haereticos. The Inquisition Trials of Witches, Heretics and Secret Societies
2022
By means of very rare manuscripts and precious historical sources (dating back even to the 16th century), this book aims to reconstruct the varied and complex phenomenon of the Inquisition, with particular scientific reference to the events that took place and unfolded in Sicily through the centuries. Based on primary ancient documents, it constitutes a monographic and reasoned catalogue of the international exhibition on the evolution of the Inquisition, curated in Palermo (Italy) by Francesco Callari and Antonio Scaglione. The exhibition, which was supported by an authoritative Scientific Board, was awarded important institutional recognitions and, in particular, the Medal of the Presiden…

Misrecognizing Asylum. Causes, modalities and consequences of the crisis of a fundamental human right.
2017
The so-called contemporary refugee crisis can be defined as a European “right to asylum crisis”, a crisis of its fundamental principles: the protection of asylum seekers’ rights and the related principle of non-refoulement. Modalities and trends marking the recognition of asylum applicants as refugees, and of migrants as asylum seekers, will be considered along with the current implementation of the notion of a “safe country” within the context of EU texts on migration developed since 2015. This “right to asylum crisis” is then briefly analyzed as both a symptom and a cause of the European Union project’s wider political and cultural crisis.
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…
"A Detenção administrativa dos Estrangeiros irregulares na Itália e na União Europeia e o Direito humano fundamental à Liberdade privada e à ampla De…
2014
Na Itália, como em outros Estados da União Europeia, vem ocorrendo recentemente nos últimos anos o fenômeno da "detenção administrativa" dos cidadãos estrangeiros irregulares, bem como dos requerentes de asilo, a maioria proveniente da África, do Oriente Médio e da Península Balcânica. Esses imigrantes, pelo simples fato de terem ingressado irregularmente no território europeu, apesar da imigração ilegal não constituir delito, são privados da liberdade pessoal ou de circulação e permanência, sendo detidos pelas autoridades de segurança pública, às vezes sem a validação da autoridade jurisdicional, durante um período de tempo também muito prolongado, em determinados locais, formais ou inform…
