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 …

Management of Cultural Landscapes: What Does this Mean in the Former Soviet Union? A Case Study from Latvia

2009

Concern about changing cultural landscapes has increased recently, with the advent of the European Landscape Convention placing signatory countries in a position of having to develop action for protecting and managing cultural landscapes. In countries of the former Soviet Union the landscape underwent many changes as a result of agricultural collectivisation and its aftermath. This situation has been analysed for six sample rural municipalities (pagasts) in Latvia, one of the three former Soviet countries to join the European Union (EU), using maps from the period 1901 to 1927 (to represent the ‘traditional landscape’) and 1997 orthophotographs updated to 2000 (to represent the ‘post-Soviet…

European Union Protection System

2014

Traditionally, the EU law (characterised as acquis communautaire) is divided into the primary law and the secondary law. This distinction of the EU law is not based on a hierarchy of norms but, as it is justly admitted in the legal literature, on sources: if the EU primary law originates from the EU Member States as ‘Masters of the Treaty’, the EU secondary law—directly from EU institutions. In the case of IGOs (as well as other IP objects such as trade marks, designs, patents, and plant variety rights), their regulation is ensured both by the EU primary law and the EU secondary law which will be reviewed separately in Part II of the book.

Soil biodiversity monitoring in Europe : ongoing activities and challenges

2009

International audience; The increasing interest in soil biodiversity and its protection includes both the biodiversity conservation issues and the mostly unknown economic and ecological values of services provided by soil biodiversity. Inventory and monitoring are necessary tools for the achievement of an adequate level of knowledge regarding soil biodiversity status and for the detection of biodiversity hot spots as well as areas where current levels of biodiversity are under threat of decline. In this paper the main tools and methodological approaches for soil biodiversity measurement are presented. Technical aspects related to the inventory and monitoring activities at a large spatial sc…

Negotiations with a risk assessment tool: Standardized decision-making in the United States and the deprofessionalization thesis

2017

AbstractThis article focuses on the challenges of decision-making in child protection. Comparative studies show that standardized risk assessment tools predict future maltreatment more accurately than interpretative assessment. Despite a long tradition of research on statistical decision-making, few studies deal with how such instruments are used and integrated into professional decision-making practice, and – from a transnational perspective – how specific national regulations influence such instruments and decision-making at street level. The article discusses concerns about the fact that such classification systems might have a negative impact on professional discretion. Based on a mater…

Il danno da perdita dell'animale di affezione e le nuove frontiere del danno esistenziale

2023

Il saggio propone una riflessione sulla discussa fattispecie del danno da perdita dell’animale di affezione e sulle nuove frontiere del danno esistenziale, riconfigurato in termini di danno evento. La riflessione, alla luce delle nuove prospettive di tutela degli animali quali esseri sensienti, è suggerita dal nuovo articolo 13 del Trattato UE e dal recente inserimento della protezione degli animali nel nuovo testo dell’art. 9 della Costituzione. Nel caso del danno da perdita dell’animale di affezione, la violazione del diritto della persona viene riconosciuta attraverso una rilettura dell’art. 2 della Costituzione, sganciata dal vincolo formale di una previsione esplicita ed aperta all’ ev…
