Questioning Human Rights: The Case of Education for Children and Youth with Disabilities in Ethiopia
2016
This chapter focuses on the politics of education as a basic human right. We analyze the challenges and opportunities implied in realizing the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and operationalizing the human rightsbased approach to disability (HRBAD) with a case study on the inclusion of children and youth with disabilities in the regular education system of Ethiopia. The existing situation is highlighted with lived experiences of persons with disabilities and comments by organisations of persons with disabilities, education professionals, and government officials who were interviewed between August and October 2013 in Ethiopia. When successful, the HRBAD and its critica…

Breaking the Traditional Style of Finnish Civic Activity
2010
In this article, “the basic idea is to introduce the idea of style as an approach to (political) activity and, especially, as an alternative practice to ideological activity.” Using the example of animal-rights activism, the author posits something “decidedly new” in Finnish civic activity, which traditionally has been channelled through institutions: Finnish movements have been state-oriented, with demands being addressed to the government, and have emphasized knowledge-based rationality as the measure for competent activity. The author categorically rejects “the notion that, in politics, style is anything more than a superficial curtain, behind which the true contents of politicking can …
Trasparenza del mercato, tutela del consumatore e green washing
2022
Il saggio propone una riflessione sulla politiche di trasparenza del mercato strumentali all’ obiettivo della sostenibilità ambientale. Nella prospettiva del mercato unico sostenibile un ruolo fondamentale viene attribuito ai c.d green claims, laddove alto è il rischio che la sostenibilità divenga per le aziende una semplice strategia di marketing. Il fenomeno, noto come green washing, si pone in una prospettiva peculiare rispetto alla pubblicità ingannevole, pone domande diverse e reclama risposte diverse. Duplice la linea di intervento seguita dal legislatore euro unitario, da una parte la tutela dalle pratiche commerciali scorrette, dall’altra, quella dell’obbligo di conformità al contra…
Derecho antidiscriminatorio y protección de los colectivos en situación de vulnerabilidad en las constituciones de Ecuador de 2008 y de Bolivia de 20…
2019
El sujeto político que protagonizó los procesos constituyentes de Bolivia y Ecuador no estaba conformado por un partido obrero clásico sino por la agregación de múltiples movimientos o luchas de grupos en situación de vulnerabilidad. Esta naturaleza del sujeto constituyente determinó que la forma de constitucionalismo social emergente no se basara, como el europeo, en la subjetivación del trabajo y reconocimiento de derechos vinculados al trabajosalario, sino en la visibilización de los grupos sociales hasta ahora excluidos y en su inclusión a la ciudadanía. Ello explica que se traten de textos muy ricos en referencias y mecanismos para el reconocimiento y garantía de los derechos específic…

The Freedom to Be Free. Riflessioni su uno scritto di Hannah Arendt recentemente edito per la prima volta
2018
Un saggio di Hannah Arendt è rimasto inedito per oltre 50 anni. Su quelle carte non è apposto un vero titolo, ma solo: A lecture. Il testo sviluppa uno dei temi più cari all’autrice: le diverse declinazioni della libertà e il loro rapporto con la rivoluzione. Manca di data, ma, essendo presenti molti riferimenti all’attualità, è facile dedurre che esso sia stato scritto tra la fine del 1966 e il 1967. Si tratta di un saggio apparentemente poco originale, poiché riprende molte idee espresse altrove, soprattutto nel grande trattato Sulla Rivoluzione pubblicato nel 1963. Tuttavia è interessante vedere come alcuni concetti già apparsi in altre pubblicazioni vengano impiegati per leggere gli acc…
Prevention of hate speech crimes: digital versus real-life environment
2022
Extending the use of social media and other digital networks, as well as technology development and the impact of the pandemic have raised the problem of how to prevent hateful speech from occurring. Limitations on hate speech closely correlate with restriction of freedom of speech, therefore balance between the two should be met to ensure both fundamental democratic right on the freedom of speech, as well as to restrict limitations on one’s honour, dignity and safety. To answer whether mechanisms for combating the crimes of hate speech in the digital environment are as effective as they are in a real-life situation, the author analyses the international (United Nations) and Council of Euro…
