Francesco Crispi e la istituzione della IV sezione del Consiglio di Stato
2017
Il presente scritto mira ad evidenziare taluni aspetti problematici della istituzione della IV Sezione del Consiglio di Stato nel 1889 e la valenza liberale della riforma crispina nel riportare le sorti dell’ordinamento italiano sulla via maestra del contenzioso amministrativo. Fu necessario un compromesso con la formale sopravvivenza della legge del 1865, che si fondava invece sull’opposto principio del monismo giurisdizionale, secondo la tradizione dei liberali francesi, come De Broglie, e del modello belga. Ma si trattava di un compromesso impossibile, sicché i dazi pagati alla legge del 1889 furono in buona parte apparenti. Fu apparente l’idea che la IV Sezione avesse natura amministrat…
Giustizia penale e tratta di esseri umani: i risvolti processuali della "vulnerabilità"
2017
Il contrasto dei fenomeni di tratta e di traffico di esseri umani mostra un processo di “contaminazione” fra normativa di tipo universale e regionale, caratterizzato dal rispetto dello standard di Duty of Due Diligence. Domina lo scenario italiano il concetto polifunzionale di “vulnerabilità”, direttamente trasfuso nella fattispecie sostanziale, recepito nel sistema processuale ed evidenziato da alcuni esiti giurisprudenziali. Esso, oltre a influenzare la determinazione del locus commissi delicti, gioca un ruolo di sicuro rilievo nel giustificare forme di anticipazione del contraddittorio e nel tratteggiare i contorni della prova dichiarativa “debole”. Ulteriori effetti la “vulnerabilità” e…
La cura tra giustizia e diritti
2016
The present contribution begins with a preliminary analysis of the concept of “care”, before considering the dynamics of misrecognition of this fundamental dimension of the human condition. Peculiar attention will be devoted to the modalities in which this misrecognition has been translated into specific cultural, legal and social norms. Potentialities and limits of the so-called “Ethics of care” will be evaluated, along with some of the main criticisms to the contractualist theories with the regard to their inadequacy in reflecting the complexity of the relations they pretend to regulate. Finally, the interactions between the ethics of care and the liberal vision of justice and rights are …

Introduction to the Economics Dimension of the Special Issue on Global Justice
Consequences and Conclusion
2021
This chapter reflects the argument developed in the previous chapters, concluding that cosmopolitanism as nonrelationism is both a distinct and plausible position within the global justice debate. The chapter identifies prominent proponents and excludes others. The chapter also highlights the consequences of cosmopolitanism as nonrelationism for the evaluation and design of institutional structures on the global as well as on the domestic level.
ADR Mechanisms and Their Incorporation into Global Justice in the Twenty-First Century: Some Concepts and Trends
2014
The State and State courts have been approached for centuries as the almost only available instruments to ensure access to justice to citizens; that is to guarantee the right to an effective remedy before an independent and impartial tribunal previously established by law within a reasonable time. A monopoly for the State in the field of dispute resolution has existed to the extent that despite the long presence of non-judicial instruments of dispute resolution in many jurisdictions, they have been traditionally considered as marginal in most countries and have lacked real implementation by citizens and legal actors.Unfortunately, the situation is not fully satisfactory. State courts have b…

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…
El derecho de los parlamentarios a recabar documentación administrativa. Nuevas perspectivas jurisprudenciales a raíz de su creciente judicialización
2019
For just over five years, for the first time in our democratic history, the right of parliamentarians to collect documentation from public administrations has been judicialized in the contentious-administrative way. A cluster of cases with a single common focus: tense government-parliament relations in the Valencian Community. This conflict has led, in the course of these years, to a high number of resolutions of both the Superior Court of Justice of the Valencian Community and the Supreme Court. A total of more than forty sentences that have had a considerable impact on the delimitation of this right. This article examines these judicial resolutions and offers a global analysis of the inte…
