Attacking cultural property to destroy a community: heritage destruction as a crime against humanity and genocide
2020
Cultural heritage, if considered in a multilevel dimension, represents the essence of a population. Attacks against tangible cultural heritage can amount to persecution or ethnic cleansing if committed with a discriminatory intent. For their nature, such attacks are often accompanied by destruction of intangible cultural heritage targeting the language, the traditions and the uses of a people. They cause, alongside tremendous losses of something unique and irreplaceable, psychological damages to the communities linked to them. An episode of cultural cleansing like the removal of communities by eradicating their cultural presence on a land encompasses also deliberate attacks against cultural…
Mobilità dei reati nello spazio transfrontaliero e nuovi confini delle norme penali: verso una giurisdizione “a geometria variabile”?
2018
The actual empirical reality, in which the most important criminal manifestations are articulated according to modalities which cross the territorial frontiers of the States, imposes new normative solutions which - in the attempt not to leave 'pockets' of impunity - can redraw the traditional boundaries of the criminal regulations. In a context pervaded by international interventions of criminalization of the most serious forms of manifestation of crime (above all, the Palermo Convention and its Protocols), there is, first of all, at the domestic level, a change of the same territorial paradigm of the criminal law, which adapts the exercise of jurisdiction according to "variable geometries"…
EXPANSION OF GLOBAL RULE BY LAW ENFORCEMENT: COLOMBIA’S EXTRADITION EXPERIENCE, 1999–2017
2018
We argue that transnational criminal law has enacted a global rule by law enforcement agencies, at odds with the rule of law. Mutual legal assistance agreements (MLAA) allow exporting law enforcement practices without proper judicial oversight. Consequently defendants required in extradition are exposed to abuses, as illustrated here with extradition cases from Colombia to the United States of America (USA) in the past decades. Based on the critical review of documental and statistic information coming from official and independent sources in the U.S. and Colombia, this article pinpoints specific shortcomings that affect due process and fair trials in the case of extradited defendants. Conc…
Len’ka Panteleev and the traditions of Van’ka Kain: Criminal Biography in XXth Century Russia
2017
The Fighter against the myth, or the memoirist who considers himself a Hercules (Anton Pavlovich Chekhov: an attempt at a characterization by N.M. Ezhov). The vast corpus about the 1920s Petrograd bandit Len’ka Panteleev, comprised of different texts – such as newspaper articles, fiction, film and song, with a complex and often ambiguous interplay between factual accounts and fictional adaptation – seems untypical for the era. A useful term of comparison is the similar corpus concerning the 18th century Moscow rogue Van’ka Kain. The latter shows all the typical features of 18th century criminal biographies, which at the time were popular throughout Europe. According to Michel Foucault, this…

Sequestrati dalla vendetta: “rimanere chiusi fuori dall’oggetto”
2013
RiassuntoA partire dal loro lavoro di psicoterapeute e attraverso alcuni frammenti clinici che si riferiscono ad un gruppo di adolescenti svoltosi in un quartiere a rischio di Palermo, le Autrici analizzano la dimensione mafiosa non restringendola al solo comportamento criminale; piuttosto declinandola lungo alcuni significanti: non identità e gruppo mafioso che colonizza e sottomette lo psichismo del singolo; fantasmi familiari potenti e spietati che impediscono il costituirsi di sé originali e autonomi; personalità impastate di indifferenza emotiva e vendicatività. Significanti che rendono conto delle vaste aree di desertificazione e pietrificazione – resistenza al cambiamento – avvertita…

Il diritto penale oltre la frontiera
2023
A partire dalla considerazione del ruolo che il principio di territorialità riveste nel diritto penale, il contributo sviluppa una rapida riflessione sui rapporti tra cosmopolitismo giuridico e diritto penale e si interroga sui possibili influssi che le teorie sul fondamento universalistico dei diritti umani possono esercitare sul sistema penale stato-centrico.
