Conflicts between Fundamental Rights: a Criticism to Luigi Ferrajoli
2009
El objeto de este breve texto es poner de relieve alguna duda acerca de un específico, aunque no marginal, aspecto de la compleja teoría de los derechos fundamentales construida por Ferrajoli: el problema del conflicto entre derechos fundamentales. En primer lugar, ofreceré un sumario bastante genérico sobre la presencia (por lo menos aparente, o potencial) de conflictos entre derechos fundamentales en el panorama constitucional contemporáneo. De ahí pasaré a ilustrar la estrategia elaborada por L. Ferrajoli para argumentar la tesis de la ausencia o, al menos, la extremadamente reducida y marginal presencia de los conflictos entre derechos fundamentales. Por último, mostraré algunas posible…
METHODOLOGICAL PROPOSAL TO EVALUATE THE HUMAN RIGHTS APPROACH IN PUBLIC POLICIES. A CASE STUDY OF OPEN GOVERNMENT PUBLIC POLICY IN MEXICO AND ITALY
2022
La investigación parte de la premisa de que para una mayor correspondencia de los procesos de política pública con los requerimientos de la sociedad contemporánea, éstos deben desarrollarse en un entorno policontextual y policéntrico. Es decir, en escenarios en los que se propicie su apertura a los diferentes contextos sociales y la intervención de diversos actores. En atención a esto, se optó por efectuar un estudio de tipo analítico-sintético, que involucrara las variables de enfoque de derechos humanos—relacionada con el policontextualismo y policentrismo de una acción— y la de política pública—relativa a la técnica/método conforme a la cual se desarrolla de forma sistemática la acción p…
Introduction to "Human Rights & Security: Justifying Exceptions"
2017
Since its introduction in the 1990s1, the concept of securitization has received widespread attention well beyond the field of international relations in the context of which it first appeared. The concept indicates the discursive process in which: (i) an agent claims (securitization move) the necessity to adopt exceptional measures which bring about serious violations of otherwise binding rules, in order to protect a certain value from a grave and extraordinary threat, with the scope of convincing a specific audience to accept those measures and the violations to follow; (ii) the move is successful and the audience effectively accepts the exceptional measures (securitization). One of the p…

El coste de una decisión que se no quiere tomar. Observaciones acerca de la introducción del delito de tortura en el ordenamiento italiano y un esboz…
2020
After a difficult and disputed drafting, on July 5, 2017, the Italian Parliament approved the Act n. 110/2017, which introduced the crime of torture in Italy. The lack of will of Italian Parliament in promulgating the law, even though Strasbourg Court urged in several occasion to reform the law in order to avoid cases of insufficient sanctions in case of violation of art. 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights, can be explained through a redefinition of the model of legislative rationality: legislator might be considered rational when it enacts ambiguous legislative texts at the lowest electoral cost if it urged to do by the pressure of supranational jurisdictions. Finally, even thoug…
Il diritto di visita entro i limiti della semplice ragione
2015
The right to visit of which Kant speaks in the “Third definitive article on perpetual peace” requires, precisely because of its theoretical framework, to be inscribed in a broader register, that is to say one that does not only concern the specifically political and legal aspects of the cosmopolitical project, but makes reference to the issue concerning the very sense in which the possession of reason can legitimately be referred to man. Only thus is it possible theoretically to access in an informed way the main sense of the Kantian cosmopolitical project and the theme of universal hospitality. And this is perhaps the way in which Kant himself, in responding to the urgent issues of his day…
Overestimation of numerical distances in the left space
2004
Normal subjects presented with a middle number and two left- and right-sided outer numbers overestimate the numerical distance between the middle number and that positioned at its left side. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the right posterior parietal cortex specifically counteracts this bias, suggesting that the mental representation of space defined by numbers is shifted toward the left side depending on a greater activity of the right hemisphere.
Rights, the Distribution of Wealth, and Happiness: Gaetano Filangieri’s Constitutional Ideal of Justice
2018
This article presents the ideal of distributive justice of Gaetano Filangieri whose realization is entrusted to the constitutional project elaborated in his work La Scienza della Legislazione. The article shows the main features which, in the outline of the Enlightenment, distinguish the core of the Filangerian proposal: the happiness of the nation needs an equitable distribution of wealth; the definition of the perfect model of justice is founded on an original utilitarian analysis which employs elements which anticipate the marginalism of the next century; to increase both the level of national welfare and the civic participation the laws have to improve the position of the least advantag…
