The Strange Case of the Protective Perimeter: Liberties and Claims to Non-Interference
2011
In this paper I aim at pointing out some difficulties raised by the so-called thesis of the protective perimeter of liberties (ToPP), that is: the thesis according to which: neither a privilege necessarily involves a claim to non-interference, nor a claim to non-interference necessarily presupposes a privilege. As to the first aspect of the thesis, I argue that it relies on a misleading concept of ‘interference with a liberty’, which surfaces in the examples to which the thesis is made applicable. As to the second aspect of the thesis, I argue that the idea of someone having a claim to be unimpeded in wronging another person is a misleading description of the situation taken into considerat…
Analyse von Hilfeersuchen
1994
There is no doubt that a single emergency phone number is desirable, but in contrast to other countries, in Germany different emergency phone numbers and dispatching centers exist for the fire brigade (FB), the emergency medical service system (EMS), and the general practitioners' emergency service (GPS). Due to this fact, valuable time is often wasted by connecting or transferring emergency calls from one dispatching center to another. The purpose of this study was to analyse all calls received by the different dispatching centers in the city and county area of Mainz with respect to total number, fraction of emergency calls, and specificity. Further, the total number of calls potentially r…

Il dovere di proteggere e il principio di non-refoulement. Storia e confinamenti di una legge ancestrale
2019
Il contributo ripercorre la storia dell'asilo ritrovandone le radici nella legge ancestrale dell'ospitalità e nell'antico dovere di proteggere positivizzato, nell'età dei diritti, nel principio di non refoulement affermato dal diritto internazionale dei rifugiati. L'effettività di questo principio viene quindi posta in questione alla luce delle politiche migratorie contemporanee di chiusura dei confini, guardando a come esse si attuano oggi nel contesto del Mediterraneo centrale dove si assiste a un paradossale rovesciamento di ruoli tra chi viola e chi rispetta ancora il dovere di proteggere.
Giustizia o umanità? Come e perché le società sviluppate devono rispondere al problema migratorio
2021
The contribution aims to answer the questions indicated in the title in the context of the debate on the theories of justice. It is argued that the theoretical core of the pro- blem concerns the opposition between justice and humanity. According to the theories of domestic justice, it is possible to speak of justice in domestic contexts, while beyond the borders the relevant principle is the less demanding principle of humanity. But the opposition appears controversial both from the point of view of the political community (where there seems to be a need for elements dating back to the sense of humanity), and from the point of view of the international dimension (where the principle of huma…
Rules, Conventionalism and Normativity: Some Remarks Starting from Hart
2014
The paper deals with the “conventionalist turn” in legal positivism in relation to the matter of the duty to obey the law and legal normativity. In this respect, conventionalist legal positivism is worth considering (a) because it offers an explanation of legal normativity partly different vis-a-vis previous ones and (b) because it tries to preserve the autonomy of legal obligation from moral obligation and coercion, respectively. Here I will only focus on legal conventionalism as sketched out by Hart in the Postscript. Indeed, Hart’s conventionalism comes up against problems which to some extent also affect other distinguished versions of legal conventionalism like, for example, those work…

Agreement on the charges for staying at a nursing home in the case law of administrative courtsThis paper is devoted to the issue of concluding an agreement on the charges for staying at a nursing home in the case law of administrative courts. The debated issue is based on a very extensive case law and against this background the most important problems are discussed. The first problem concerns the sources and forms of participation in the cost of maintaining a person in a social welfare home. In the case law of administrative courts a prevailing view is that law is the source. Other opinion says that the source is an administrative decision. The second opinion cannot be accepted. The views…
Il contrasto alla tratta di esseri umani tra garanzie del reo e tutela delle vittime
2018
La risposta ai fenomeni criminali legati alla tratta e al traffico di esseri umani si connota per lo strumentario sostanziale e processuale multilivello : le dimensioni dei fenomeni e le interrelazioni con la criminalità organizzata coinvolgono profili di cooperazione internazionale e impongono l’adozione di misure investigative efficaci. In questa dimensione integrata della tutela, assume un ruolo centrale il rispetto dello standard di Duty of Due diligence che contrassegna le misure internazionali, sovranazionali e le singole scelte nazionali. Esso si sostanzia nello specifico dovere imposto agli Stati di evitare le violazioni dei diritti umani, identificando i rischi e adottando adeguate…
