Public-Interest Litigation before the ECtHR: Towards a Human Rights Approach to the “Universal” Protection of Cultural Heritage?

2022

Taking as a starting point the inadmissibility decision issued in 2019 by the European Court of Human Rights in the case Ahunbay and others v. Turkey, the article proposes some reflections concerning the possibility of lodging applications with the Court which are aimed at protecting collective interests and common goods as recognized (or emerging) under international law. While the case at hands concerned the specific issue of the protection of cultural heritage, it cannot be denied that, more generally, the importance in contemporary international law of public-interest litigation before international courts and tribunals is growing. And indeed, it is much discussed in the field of the pr…

DAL DIRITTO AL FIGLIO AL DIRITTO DEL BAMBINO AD AVERE UNA FAMIGLIA. QUESTIONI DI RESPONSABILITA' EDUCATIVE

2019

The paper has a twofold aim. First, it intends to offer a critical review of some phenomena related to the various claims of “right to a child”. These are phenomena, that are progressively emerging in the so-called “family” realities, in our time of the late modernity, and that, in many respects, seem to be summed up in the possibility of “surrogate motherhood”. If looked at with attention not only empirically, these phenomena can tell us something really significant about the way in which both the reality of the family and, more radically, the reality of the person, are today understood. These phenomena challenge pedagogy as well as philosophy as education to deepen a reflection on meaning…

Analysis of Conflict Datasets and Indicators: The Case of the “Arab Spring”

2017

This chapter contains an analysis of selected indicators of legitimacy, human rights and inequality, as well as information about conflict events for eight African countries affected by the Arab Spring, namely Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Sudan, and Tunisia. The analyses described in this chapter allowed the determination of plausible estimates for input parameters such as legitimacy and welfare inequality, as well as patterns of size, duration and recurrence of conflict events in these countries. These results were used for setting the values of the input parameters, and for analyzing the plausibility of the solutions in the exploration of the agent-based model describ…

Evaluación de las democracias contemporáneas bajo los efectos de la crisis económica

2017

RESUMEN: Historicamente ha habido un debate sobre el resultado del proceso democratico que se centra en si el producto de las democracias deben ser derechos politicos y libertades civiles o por el contrario deben ser bienes y servicios basicos a los ciudadanos. La crisis economica global que comenzo en 2007 ha tenido un impacto en las politicas economicas de los gobiernos que han tenido que aplicar medidas de ajuste, a veces impuestas por organismos internacionales no sujetos a control ciudadanos de los paises donde se aplicaban dichas medidas, generando protestas y revueltas y la aparicion de nuevos partidos politicos. En este escenario la crisis economica proporciona una oportunidad unica…

Il diritto ad una buona amministrazione e gli strumenti alternativi di risoluzione delle controversie

2019

Attraverso il prisma della giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia, il saggio è volto a verificare se gli strumenti disciplinati nell'ordinamento interno che realizzano forme alternative di risoluzione delle controversie (reclamo, mediazione, accertamento con adesione e conciliazione giudiziale) costituiscono altrettanti strumenti di possibile declinazione del diritto di partecipazione e, più in generale, del diritto ad una buona amministrazione. Trough the case law of the Court of Justice, the study verifies whether domestic institutions that are alternative dispute resolution remedies (complaint, mediation, tax assessment agreement, judicial conciliation settlement) realize the right to p…

Transitioning from Preclinical to Clinical Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Mechanistic Approach.

2020

International audience; To better understand heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), we need to better characterize the transition from asymptomatic pre-HFpEF to symptomatic HFpEF. The current emphasis on left ventricular diastolic dysfunction must be redirected to microvascular inflammation and endothelial dysfunction that leads to cardiomyocyte remodeling and enhanced interstitial collagen deposition. A pre-HFpEF patient lacks signs or symptoms of heart failure (HF), has preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) with incipient structural changes similar to HFpEF, and possesses elevated biomarkers of cardiac dysfunction. The transition from pre-HFpEF to symptomati…

Right to Food and Geoengineering

2023

AbstractClimate change poses grave risks to food security, and mitigation and adaptation actions have so far been insufficient to lessen the risk of climate-induced violations of the right to food. Could safeguarding the right to food, then, justify some forms of geoengineering? This article examines geoengineering through the analytical lens of the right to food. We look at the components of food security and consider how the acceptability of geoengineering relates to the right to food via its impacts on these components. Our examination shows that results vary greatly between different forms of geoengineering: while some forms of geoengineering fail to respect the right to food, certain o…
