Storicità del diritto. Strutture costituzionali, fonti, codici. Prospettive romane e moderne

2018

L’intento sotteso alla realizzazione del presente volume è quello di ripercorrere sinteticamente i tratti fondamentali della storia costituzionale romana individuando, al contempo, forme concettuali e prassi consolidate che - seppur sviluppate in quell’esperienza storica - hanno segnato anche le sorti di tutta la Tradizione giuridica successiva, e pertanto, dell’intera Tradizione giuridica Occidentale . Si tratta, infatti, di uno «strato tenacissimo di concetti e pratiche» che hanno raggiunto «quei laboratori politici e istituzionali dei cui prodotti siamo diretti eredi», secondo un percorso di «lunghissima portata e tendenzialmente universale ». Le forme concettuali del diritto romano sono…

The Ivorian Constitutional Council and the supremacy of the Constitution. : study in light of his decisions and opinions

2018

Ivorian constitutional justice, in its current form, is the fruit of the democratization movement launched on the continent from the 1990s. But if elsewhere the exercise of constitutional review immediately became an essential instrument in the effectiveness of the Constitution and the advent of the rule of law, in Côte d'Ivoire, the guarantee of the the Constitution’s supremacy has evolved continuously at an oscillatory rhythm. The constitutionality check is first expressed through a strategy of small steps. The constitutional judge's choice of a narrow interpretation of his attributions produces a daring case law geared towards legitimizing the executive power and its governance. Subseque…

Human Rights in Romanian Courts: A European Perspective?

2016

The perception and application of the European Convention on Human Rights by various national jurisdictions depends fundamentally on the way in which the Convention has been introduced into national law, as well as, in some countries, by how constitutional jurisdictions shaped this relationship. The article examines the reception of the Convention by a few European states, with a special regard on the case of Romania. Romanian courts, including the Constitutional Court and the supreme court, had a hesitant approach of the principle established by 1991 Constitution of the priority of international law of human rights over domestic law. In the context of the diversity of sources of the Europe…

Costituzionalismo ed esperienze costituzionali in Iran

2015

Il lavoro tende ad esaminare se e come il pensiero filosofico di tradizione sciita abbia influenzato il sistema costituzionale iraniano. Partendo, quindi, dall’esperienza costituzionale del 1906-1907 fino alla revisione costituzionale del 1989 della vigente Costituzione, si è cercato di delineare come si sia evoluta la forma di governo, il diverso ruolo che il diritto religioso ha assunto all’interno dell’ordinamento iraniano e quali limiti siano stati previsti all’azione del governo. The purpose of this study is to analyse to what extent the Shiite jurisprudence has influenced the Iranian constitutional system. This study will provide an outline of the evolution of the form of government f…

Autonomie e controlli della Corte dei conti nel quadro dei principi costituzionali e dei vincoli sovranazionali in materia economico-finanziaria

2022

Una riflessione dei controlli sulle autonomie territoriali intestati alla Corte dei conti non può prescindere dal loro inquadramento costituzionale. L’A. prospetta una ricostruzione del controllo come espressione di una funzione neutra e imparziale che deve riposare su precisi parametri costituzionali che ne legittimano l’adozione e di cui va resa una stretta interpretazione: il controllo sulle Autonomie territoriali deve così essere necessariamente una attività tale da avvicinarla a quella giurisdizionale piuttosto che amministrativa. È in tale chiave che deve essere inteso il rapporto fra ausiliarietà di cui all’art. 100 Cost. e controlli sui bilanci ed i rendiconti. L’evoluzione del quad…

Women's history and gender history: The Italian experience

2005

SummarySince the early nineteenth century political opposition became a central concept of political representation in constitutional monarchies. While this concept marked the political language of unified Italy on the national level, in local administration the legitimacy of political opposition remained an issue of dispute, as illustrated in this analysis of the political language in Bologna's city council. Local perceptions of national events, like Garibaldi's unsuccessful Mentana-campaign, assumed a significant symbolic meaning and challenged traditional understandings of local administration by introducing notions of political opposition. In Bologna, the second city of the former Papal…

Shaping public Opinion for confrontation : catalan independence claims as represented in spanish, catalan, valencian, and basque editorials

2017

Editorials represent a newspaper’s principal means of ideological positioning and serve to identify the attitude of each newspaper and its readership to some of the main actors in any given conflict, especially those that are political in nature. Catalonia’s independence movement has experienced a surge in recent years. The turning point came in July 2010, after Spain’s constitutional court ruled against some aspects of Catalonia’s Statute of Autonomy (the legislation regulating the relationship between the Catalan autonomous community and the Spanish state). The ruling annulled some of the articles of the statute. The demonstration in support of Catalan independence that took place on Sep…

Defining “National Treasures” in the European Union. Is the Sky Really the Limit?

2019

The main objective of this article is to analyse the scope of EU Member States’ right to determine national treasures for the purpose of Directive 2014/60/EU on the return of cultural objects. While investigating the issue at the EU, human rights, and constitutional levels, the authors argue that the right to define what constitutes national treasures is not an absolute right. The definition of this particular category of cultural objects cannot be used to circumvent the rules on the free movement of goods and to hamper this freedom in an unjustifiable and arbitrary manner. On the human rights and constitutional levels, Member States’ right cannot interfere with the right to enjoy one’s pos…
