Contro il paternalismo giuridico
2011
Sommario In questo articolo, si argomenterà che il paternalismo giuridico non è una concezione etico-politica condivisibile. In base a tale concezione, infatti, lo Stato può usare la forza, contro la volontà di un individuo adulto, anche qualora le sue scelte siano razionali e libere da coazione altrui, al fine di tutelare (ciò che si pretende sia) il suo bene. In particolare, si argomenterà che quello dell’autonomia individuale sia un argomento, in favore dell’antipaternalismo, più forte e condivisibile dei due principali argomenti in favore del paternalismo, quello utilitarista/organicista e quello perfezionista. Questi ultimi due argomenti, correttamente interpretati, sono, infatti, inco…
Towards “global zero”: the role of the Holy See in the campaign on nuclear disarmament
2019
On 7 July 2017 at the UN headquarters in New York the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons was adopted, the first multilateral legally-binding instrument for nuclear disarmament negotiated in the last twenty years. The very signing of the Treaty must be seen as an extraordinary achievement because it represents a historic step in the seven decades long debate on nuclear weapons. One of the most significant achievements of the decade-long campaign is the engagement of civil society and non-state actors to such a degree that it was recognized through the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN). The crucial supporter of the cam…
Environmental Protection as a Trojan Horse of Criminal Law in the European First Pillar? A new Statement of the ECJ
2008
Dopo la storica sentenza del 13 settembre 2005, la Corte di Giustizia è intervenuta nuovamente a definire il riparto delle competenze tra Unione e Comunità in materia di diritto penale, annullando anche la decisione quadro sul rafforzamento della cornice penale per la repressione dell’inquinamento provocato da navi (caso C-440/05, Commissione c. Consiglio). Due erano le questioni fondamentali che attendevano una risposta da parte della Corte di Giustizia: 1) l’ammissibilità di direttive a contenuto penale per settori ulteriori rispetto a quello specifico della tutela dell’ambiente; 2) la definizione delle competenze della Comunità nella scelta del contenuto delle norme penali. Sul secondo p…
Trust in the educational partnership narrated by parents of a child with challenging behaviour
2019
This study examined trust in educational partnership in the context of early childhood education and care (ECEC) in Finland, from the viewpoint of parents of a child with challenging behaviour. Typically, such children have difficulties in regulating their behaviour and emotions. Semi-structured interviews with 23 parents were content-analysed in a narrative framework. The analysis revealed two critical elements of trust in educational partnership: (1) Child well-being in the day care centre, and (2) a supportive parent–educator relationship and collaboration. Critical factors in the first element of trust were educators’ respectful and good-quality relationships with the child and fair and…
The Recent Italian Reform on "Eco-crimes"
2021
The law 22 May 2015 n. 68 on eco-crimes constitutes an "epochal" turning point for environmental criminal law. The paper analyzes the main innovations of the reform, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses, both from the point of view of the theoretical "holding" of the regulatory solutions adopted, and with regard to their concrete effectiveness, in terms of strengthening the overall level of protection of the 'environment.
Restructuring the defence industry and arms production in Russia
2000
AT THE BEGINNING OF 1997, after five years of failed reforms in the defence industry, there took place a substantial change in the administrative structure running this sector. The Ministry of Economic Affairs took over the restructuring of the defence industry and thereby defined a new way of tackling reforms in this industrial sector. Three elements stand out in the new approach: intersectorality, a predominance of civilian elements and a greater realism. This approach, therefore, represents a break with the idea in force up to that moment of the best way to tackle problems related to the defence industry, which was greatly conditioned by its Soviet heritage. Although two years later this…
Climate change, ethics and sustainability: An innovative approach
2018
Our goal in this article is the analysis of the state of affairs, regarding the phenomenon of climate change and its impact in different areas. We synthesize the various approaches available in the scientific debate on this subject, mainly the one that affirms the existence of global warming and the current approach, which denies it. Beyond the controversy, what seems to be evident is that there is a multifactorial causality in a phenomenon that affects anthropogenic factors a well. Since some environmentalisms exclude the human being in their consideration of the ecosystem, and if they do, they accommodate man in their approaches always as a variable that distorts and deteriorates the envi…
The Discursive Dance : The Employee Co-operation Negotiations as an Arena for Management-by-fear
2015
The purpose of this article is to qualitatively describe and critically explain the discursive construction of employee co-operation negotiations in Finland as an arena for management-by-fear. The article consists of a theoretical review, covering the legislative basis of co-operation negotiations and recent research on management-by-fear. The empirical study consists of media texts and company media releases in Finland in 2012–2013. The main conclusions are that there are distinctive features in the co-operation negotiations that enable and enforce the possibility of management-by-fear, and thus destructive leadership. The process, supported by law and very much against the original aim, e…
Teoría de la educación : revista interuniversitaria
2017
En el campo de la educación nos encontramos actualmente con dos importantes requerimientos, sólidamente fundamentados, para introducir la Educación para la Sostenibilidad y la Educación en Derechos Humanos. Se trata, en efecto, de dos áreas educativas prioritarias, a las que UNESCO ha dedicado sendos decenios. Es preciso reconocer, sin embargo, la escasa conexión entre ambas, así como su insuficiente presencia en el sistema educativo, muy particularmente en el nivel universitario. Nuestro propósito en este trabajo es, precisamente, mostrar que, contrariamente a lo que, en general, se ha venido considerando, ambos campos de conocimiento y actividad social están estrechamente vinculados y deb…
Repensando la educación. Trayectoria y futuro de los sistemas educativos modernos
2019
Este artículo tiene por objetivo reflexionar sobre la doble condición de las reformas educativas requeridas en las sociedades avanzadas: como elemento de conocimiento político-sociológico y como acción reguladora social. A nivel metodológico se plantea una hermenéutica de las principales representaciones del cambio educativo, y se subraya que las reformas no deben subordinarse sólo a las necesidades sociológicas del momento. En esta línea, se exponen las demandas de cambio acaecidas a partir de PISA, así como las críticas que este modelo de evaluación ha recibido. Los principales resultados de los estudios internacionales analizados indican que comparar sistemas educativos y alumnado a part…
