El camino hacia el reconocimiento legal de la violencia sexual contra la mujer en tiempos de guerra
2020
El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar el proceso de configuración de un Derecho Internacional que atienda al fenómeno de la violencia sexual contra las mujeres en contextos de conflictos armados, analizando el alcance del cambio de paradigma logrado en los años noventa con la tipificación y enjuiciamiento de la violencia sexual contra las mujeres en conflictos armados en el ámbito de la justicia penal internacional y, en última instancia, identificando posibles elementos sobre los que seguir avanzando hacia un Derecho Internacional que reconozca un estatus jurídico de las mujeres y huya de la imagen única de la mujer como víctima. © 2020 University of Valencia, Human Rights Institute.

LA LIBERALIZZAZIONE DEL LICENZIAMENTO ECONOMICO: POLITICA COSTITUZIONALE, LEGGE, GIURISPRUDENZA
2023
Il saggio analizza la fattispecie del giustificato motivo oggettivo di licenziamento e i connessi rimedi (art. 18 post riforma '"Fornero" e d.lgs. 23/2015), ed evidenzia la lettura 'liberista' operata dalla giurisprudenza. The essay analyses individual dismissals for economic grounds and related remedies (art. 18 Workers' Statute after "Fornerno" reform and legislative decree no. 23/2015), and it highlights the neoliberal reading made by labour courts.
Atenuación en el discurso de los participantes no profesionales de los juicios orales. ¿Un caso de lenguaje débil?
2020
El objetivo de este artículo es estudiar la manera en que se manifiesta la atenuación en los participantes no profesionales de los juicios orales. Tradicionalmente, se ha vinculado el empleo de recursos relacionados con la atenuación (como los hedges o las fórmulas de cortesía) con el lenguaje débil, pues las personas que usan estos recursos en su declaración limitan su compromiso con lo dicho y son percibidas como menos creíbles y menos inteligentes (Erickson, Lind, Johnson & O'Barr, 1978). No obstante, tras analizar un corpus de 12 juicios orales españoles pertenecientes al juzgado de lo penal, se ha comprobado que el uso de estos y otros recursos que se asocian con la atenuación pueden p…
Not Quite Final: Principle of Res Judicata in National Judicial Proceedings in the Area of State Aid
2022
This article addresses the principle of res judicata in the context of rules on State aid, including the case-law of the Court of Justice and the 2021 Commission Notice on the enforcement of State aid rules by national courts. The limits of the principle at issue required by Article 108(3) TFEU and the powers of national courts to recover unlawful aid (with or without a recovery decision from the Commission) are discussed. The law is stated as it stood on 1 January 2022 (with some later developments). The case-law on res judicata referred to here includes the decisions of the Court in Lucchini, Klausner Holz, and CSTP/Buonotourist, with commentary on the practical effect of the Court’s appr…
Genetic identification of neurons controlling a sexually dimorphic behaviour
2000
0960-9822 (Print) Journal Article Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't; In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, locomotor activity is sexually dimorphic: female flies constantly modulate their activity pattern whereas males show a steadier, stereotyped walking pace [1]. Here, we mapped the area of the brain controlling this behavioural dimorphism. Adult male Drosophila expressing a dominant feminising transgene in a small cluster of neurons in the pars intercerebralis exhibited a female-like pattern of locomotor activity. Genetic ablation of these neurons prevented the feminisation of the locomotor activity of transgenic males. The results suggest that this cluster of neurons modulates sex-sp…
Genes involved in sex pheromone discrimination in Drosophila melanogaster and their background-dependent effect.
2012
International audience; Mate choice is based on the comparison of the sensory quality of potential mating partners, and sex pheromones play an important role in this process. In Drosophila melanogaster, contact pheromones differ between male and female in their content and in their effects on male courtship, both inhibitory and stimulatory. To investigate the genetic basis of sex pheromone discrimination, we experimentally selected males showing either a higher or lower ability to discriminate sex pheromones over 20 generations. This experimental selection was carried out in parallel on two different genetic backgrounds: wild-type and desat1 mutant, in which parental males showed high and l…
Drosophila female courtship and mating behaviors: sensory signals, genes, neural structures and evolution.
2010
International audience; Interest in Drosophila courtship behavior has a long-standing tradition, starting with the works by Sturtevant in 1915, and by Bastock and Manning in the 50s. The neural and genetic base of Drosophila melanogaster courtship behavior has made big strides in recent years, but the studies on males far outnumber those on females. Recent technical developments have made it possible to begin to unravel the biological substrates underlying the complexity of Drosophila female sexual behavior and its decisive effect on mating success. The present review focus more on the female side and summarizes the sensory signals that the male sends, using multiple channels, and which neu…
An olfactory receptor for food-derived odours promotes male courtship in Drosophila.
2011
International audience; Many animals attract mating partners through the release of volatile sex pheromones, which can convey information on the species, gender and receptivity of the sender to induce innate courtship and mating behaviours by the receiver. Male Drosophila melanogaster fruitflies display stereotyped reproductive behaviours towards females, and these behaviours are controlled by the neural circuitry expressing male-specific isoforms of the transcription factor Fruitless (FRU(M)). However, the volatile pheromone ligands, receptors and olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) that promote male courtship have not been identified in this important model organism. Here we describe a novel…
Lautsi contra Italia: sobre la libertad religiosa y los deberes de neutralidad e imparcialidad del Estado.
2011
RESUMENRecientemente, la Gran Sala del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos ha resuelto que la presencia del crucifijo en las aulas italianas no supone una vulneración del derecho de los padres a asegurar la educación de sus hijos de conformidad con sus propias creencias religiosas y de los deberes de neutralidad e imparcialidad estatal impuestos por el derecho de libertad religiosa. Con ello revocaba una decisión en sentido contrario de una Sala de la Sección Segunda del propio tribunal. En el trabajo se repasan críticamente los fundamentos de la decisión definitiva, basada principalmente en el reconocimiento de un amplio margen de discrecionalidad en la actuación de las autoridades nacion…
Shining castles and humans of metal/floral appearance ? metaphorical language in the Palaiologan romances Kallimachos and Velthandros
2019
About eight centuries after Heliodorus, the Greek novel resurfaced in the twelfth century, in Komnenian Byzantium, and again two centuries later under the Palaiologan dynasty. This latter literary revival was due to the political stability of the imperial Byzantine government, which promoted cultural production, rhetorical education, and patronage networks. Kallimachos and Velthandros, two Palaiologan romances presented as court literature, combine ancient and medieval tropes with rhetorical artistry to blur the boundaries between the artificial and the natural. Castles and objects made of precious metals thus resemble living, natural spaces, and human characters are portrayed in metallurgi…
