Constitutional developments in Latin American abortion law.
2016
Abstract For most of the 20th Century, restrictive abortion laws were in place in continental Latin America. In recent years, reforms have caused a liberalizing shift, supported by constitutional decisions of the countries’ high courts. The present article offers an overview of the turn toward more liberal rules and the resolution of abortion disputes by reference to national constitutions. For such purpose, the main legal changes of abortion laws in the last decade are first surveyed. Landmark decisions of the high courts of Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, and Mexico are then analyzed. It is shown that courts have accepted the need to balance interests and competing rights to ground less res…
L’autonomia di spesa delle Regioni fra Stato ed Unione europea dalla l. cost. 3/2001 alle condizionalità europee sulla ripresa e la resilienza
2021
L'articolo ricostruisce la tendenza all’accentramento nel governo delle finanze pubbliche e l’eccessiva distanza fra testo costituzionale e diritto costituzionale vivente per analizzare l'attuazione del Recovery Plan (PNRR) rilevando un ulteriore tendenza all’accentramento del governo della spesa. Si indagano dunque le ragioni della compressione dell’autonomia finanziaria di spesa per effetto del principio di indifferenza e del “doppio intreccio federale”. Si mira a inquadrare il tema alla luce della leale collaborazione e dellala resilienza istituzionale per accorciare la “distanza” fra testo costituzionale ed attuazione costituzionale in tema di autonomia di spesa delle Regioni. Si prospe…
The conservation of the environment in Ecuador's constitution
2017
The 2008 Ecuadorian Constitution is often presented as building on the local traditions of indigenous peoples in order to propose a non-anthropocentric approach to the conservation of the environment, based on the concept of buen vivir. After providing a short introduction on anthropocentric and non-anthropo-centric approaches to the environment, with attention to indigenous worldviews, this article attempts to: analyse the concept of buen vivir, appearing to have unclear boundaries; understand whether or not it is a concept derived from indigenous worldviews; and explore the innovative non-anthropocentric feature of the recognition of rights to the environment. Finally, the article uses th…

“Judicial Independence vs. Judicial Accountability. Judicial Selection Models for Constitutional Courts. A comparative analysis”
2012
Abstract La cronaca politica degli ultimi anni riporta un numero rilevante di confronti, dal tono più o meno conflittuale, tra le istituzioni politiche e quelle giurisdizionali. Di particolare rilevanza è che tale sorta di opposizione tra giustizia e politica coinvolga non solo l’operato delle magistrature ordinarie ma anche quello delle Corti costituzionali: le supreme garanti e guardiane di quei principi sui quali dovrebbe fondarsi l’intero ordinamento. A dispetto di ciò, esistono importanti occasioni in cui le autorità politiche e quelle giurisdizionali intrecciano i loro interessi, ed una di queste è proprio il momento in cui vengono reclutati i giudici costituzionali. Tuttavia, se…
Legitymacja czynna domu zakonnego Ojców Augustianów w Krakowie w postępowaniu regulacyjnym
2021
Składając wniosek, a następnie pozew w trybie przepisów art. 61 ust. 1 i art. 64 ust. 2 ustawy o stosunku państwa do Kościoła katolickiego w Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej kościelna osoba prawna musi wykazać swoją legitymację czynną do złożenia wniosku (pozwu), jego popierania oraz nabycia prawa własności. Musi zatem wykazać, że jest tą kościelną osobą prawną, która została pozbawiona własności nieruchomości wskutek jej upaństwowienia (tożsamość podmiotów), lub że jest następcą prawnym tej osoby. Wystąpienie z roszczeniem o przywrócenie własności nieruchomości upaństwowionej nie jest uzależnione od tego, czy nieruchomość ta uprzednio stanowiła własność tej osoby prawnej. Może bowiem zachodzić za…
The Downside of an Effective cART: The Immune Restoration Disease
2013
The prognosis of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 has dramatically improved since the advent of the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), which have enabled sustained suppression of HIV replication and recovery of CD4+ T cells count [1-3]. However, many patients in resource-poor settings still start HAART at a late stage of HIV infection when they already have advanced immunodeficien‐ cy [4,5]. Immune reconstitution in HIV infected patients is characterized by replenishment of immune cells depleted directly or indirectly by HIV infection, by regeneration of primary and secondary lymphoid organs, by restoration of pathogen-specific T, B and NK cells an…
Chlorophyll b is involved in long-wavelength spectral properties of light-harvesting complexes LHC I and LHC II.
2001
AbstractChlorophyll (Chl) molecules attached to plant light-harvesting complexes (LHC) differ in their spectral behavior. While most Chl a and Chl b molecules give rise to absorption bands between 645 nm and 670 nm, some special Chls absorb at wavelengths longer than 700 nm. Among the Chl a/b-antennae of higher plants these are found exclusively in LHC I. In order to assign this special spectral property to one chlorophyll species we reconstituted LHC of both photosystem I (Lhca4) and photosystem II (Lhcb1) with carotenoids and only Chl a or Chl b and analyzed the effect on pigment binding, absorption and fluorescence properties. In both LHCs the Chl-binding sites of the omitted Chl species…
Hückel’s Efforts to Disseminate His Theory and Its Reception
2009
Shortly after giving his talk in autumn 1934 at the International Conference on Physics in London, Huckel sought to introduce the results of his research on unsaturated and aromatic compounds elsewhere in Europe. On April 30, 1935 Huckel delivered a talk in French before the Societe de Physique in Paris. The title he chose was: “Aromatic and unsaturated compounds. Theoretical inquiry into their constitution and properties.”Describing his own efforts as clearly as he could, he also discussed his points of criticism against Pauling’s theoretical and mathematical approach. How his Parisian audience responded seems not to have come down to posterity. Huckel had been invited to give a series of …
Krajowa Rada Narodowa i Polski Komitet Wyzwolenia Narodowego w państwie prawa. Stanowiska doktryny
2021
<p>The establishment of the communist regime in Poland in 1944 is a current subject of reflection in the doctrine and practice of legislation and judiciary. There has been no uniform position on these events, which means that the then sanctioned political and normative order continues to produce controversial assessments and, above all, certain legal effects. This results from the fact that the new people’s power, empowered by force, and not by legal or social basis, has given itself the competence to establish a normative order. The lack of legitimacy for the rightful rule and legislative activity, in principle – from the point of view of the idea of the rule of law – undermines the …
