La riforma degli articoli 9 e 41 della Costituzione e la valorizzazione dell'ambiente.
2022
Con la riforma degli art. 9 e 41 della Costituzione, approvata l’8 febbraio 2022, l’ambiente entra nella Costituzione tra i principi fondamentali ed in qualità di limite all’esercizio dell’attività economica. Il saggio propone una lettura della riforma in grado di avvalorare quell’orientamento che, sin dal secolo scorso, propugnava la ricostruzione dell’ambiente come diritto fondamentale della persona, in linea con la valorizzazione dello stesso quale bene distinto dal paesaggio, in una prospettiva esistenzialista di tutela della persona. La modifica introdotta, secondo l’autore, colma un vuoto costituzionale, divenuto insostenibile alla luce degli sviluppi della tutela ambientale, così com…

In tema di proprietà: il modello romano nella tradizione giuridica
2021
We are back to discuss ownership. In fact, beyond all possible predictions, the history of property law is combined with that of fundamental human rights. The individual perspective of absoluteness, present in the codicistic tradition, the predominantly economic content of the property right, governed by the Constitution, are today deeply intertwined with the perspective of the protection and enhancement of the subject who owns it, in accordance with the provisions of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (Charter of Nice). . This new perspective of protection is associated with …
Sul settantesimo anniversario della Convenzione europea: fra successi e prospettive di alterazione del sistema
2020
In this paper it is submitted that an assessment of the functioning of the European system of protection of human rights lead to different results, depending on whether one considers the entire life of this system or the last twenty years (par. 1). Such an assessment is beyond any doubt positive in the first case, insofar as both the action of the States parties (progressive "jurisdictionalisation" of the protection system; extension to eastern Europe, ecc.) and the case law of the European Court (evolutive interpretation, ecc.) are concerned (par. 2). Different considerations are developed with regard to the last twenty years, despite the stipulation of Protocol 14, 15 and 16, and despite …
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).
Striking a balance between disinformation on social media platforms and freedom of expression in the European Union
2022
The growing influence and adverse effects of disinformation on social media platforms have already presented challenges not only to the European Union and its Member States but also to social media platforms and human rights activists. One of the most crucial challenges from a legal perspective has been finding the appropriate tools to regulate disinformation while preserving the right to freedom of speech, bearing in mind that there is no uniform definition of disinformation on a global level. While there are notable attempts to limit the spread of disinformation on social media platforms from the European Commission and the various Member States, this thesis aims to analyse their effectiv…

Nuovi diritti umani e nuovi soggetti: i diritti delle generazioni future
The thesis deals with the subjects of rights of future generations through both philosophical and legal perspective. The Introduction considers the phenomenon of new subjects in legal theory and, more widely, the outbreak of new human rights related to the technological development. The First Chapter faces the problem of the definition of “future generations” and identifies three different approaches. The first one, the “Remotist” approach, defines “future generations” just as the future humankind extremely distant from the present time. The second, the “Proximist” approach, looks at “future generations” as a concept involving exclusively our direct descendants. The third one, the “Indeterm…
Gender and Sexuality. Rights, Language and Performativity
2012
The book engages critically with two main aspects of the socio-cultural construction of gender and sexuality. The first section of the volume, Sexual Rights, is socio-political, and includes both the problem of the recognition of rights for all individuals, especially LGBTQI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, queer and intersexual) subjects, and the struggle to combat discrimination, that entails an analysis of and an opposition to homophobic discourses and actions. The second section of the volume, Media, Literature and Performativity, involves a theoretical elaboration of discursive and literary strategies that relate or can be applied to gendered and sexed identities. These two sphere…
