Soil biodiversity monitoring in Europe : ongoing activities and challenges
2009
International audience; The increasing interest in soil biodiversity and its protection includes both the biodiversity conservation issues and the mostly unknown economic and ecological values of services provided by soil biodiversity. Inventory and monitoring are necessary tools for the achievement of an adequate level of knowledge regarding soil biodiversity status and for the detection of biodiversity hot spots as well as areas where current levels of biodiversity are under threat of decline. In this paper the main tools and methodological approaches for soil biodiversity measurement are presented. Technical aspects related to the inventory and monitoring activities at a large spatial sc…
Experience Europe! The Reception of the Leuenberger Agreement as Model and Constant Challenge
2016
Abstract The Leuenberg Agreement (LA) is one of the most productive ecumenical documents ever seen. It initiated a church fellowship, the “Community of Protestant Churches in Europe” (CPCE). LA evoked an ongoing process of its’ own reception that can be seen in a variety of different expressions such as church communion, doctrinal conversations and public statements. However, this reception is still all too frequent limited to the European level of interaction between the member churches of CPCE. It remains one of the main challenges for the Community, a condition for “Verbindlichkeit” and the legitimated representation of its members to strengthen the awareness for the relevance of LA and …
A new and controversial scenario in the gathering of evidence at the European level: The proposal for a directive on the European investigation order
2014
In April 2010 a group of EU Member States proposed a Directive on the European Investigation Order, an instrument which, if adopted, will significantly change the way in which evidence is gathered at the EU level. After the failure of the EEW, which focused on the exchange of evidence which had already been gathered, the objective of the new text is to create a single instrument for obtaining all kinds of evidence located in another Member State. The aim of this paper is to examine, within the current framework, the suitability of this new instrument, with particular reference to its impact on the rights of defendants.
The Decline of the Spanish Fury
2015
Before the Spanish national team won the UEFA Euro 2008 tournament, it had been said that the economic take-off and growing international relevance acquired by Spanish society since the restoration of democracy after the death of General Franco had not been reflected in Spanish football. Its main representative, the Spanish national football team did not manage to obtain significant victories in the most important international championships or develop a playing style that satisfied its followers. This fact strongly contrasted with the protagonist role and huge success achieved by the main Spanish football clubs at the European level. However, the victory of the Spanish national team in Eur…
Instituciones e intereses en conflicto ante la regulación contable internacional: el caso del sector financiero español
2014
ResumenEl trabajo analiza las interrelaciones entre las normas contables y la información financiera que elaboran las empresas y las instituciones y los incentivos empresariales a fin de contribuir al debate sobre el futuro de las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera (NIIF). Se destaca que las diferencias en las instituciones —y en concreto en el control de la aplicación de las normas— hacen muy difícil la comparabilidad de la información, lo que impide lograr todas las ventajas que podría conllevar la adopción de las NIIF. Se ilustra esta problemática a través del proceso que sigue la normativa contable española para el sector financiero, proceso en el que el Banco de España de…
French organization for the pharmacovigilance of COVID-19 vaccines: A major challenge.
2021
International audience; In this special issue, we present the main highlights of the first weeks of pharmacovigilance monitoring of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in this unprecedented situation in France: the deployment of a vaccination during an epidemic period with the aim of vaccinating the entire population and the intense pharmacovigilance and surveillance of these vaccines still under conditional marketing authorizations. In this unprecedented situation, the cross approach and interaction between the French pharmacovigilance network and French National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM) has been optimized to provide a real-time safety related …
International student mobility in Southern-Latin Europe: beyond the EU logics, towards a new space
2018
This paper discusses international student mobility (ISM) in Southern-Latin Europe, specifically Italy, Portugal, and Spain, analysing the inflow of international students as reflected in the UNESCO, OECD and European Commission databases. Only recently Italy, Portugal and Spain, as latecomers, have become more actively involved in ISM dynamics. This trend has been a response to EU pressures to internationalization, instrumented through the consolidation of the Bologna process and the need to build a common space of higher education. The analysis shows that at the intra-European level Italy, Portugal and Spain share similar ISM patterns; however, in the global context other logics shape ISM…

Prospettive di riforma della tutela penale dell'ambiente nel diritto europeo e sovranazionale
2021
Il saggio descrive le prospettive di riforma della normativa penale ambientale, di recente delineatesi tanto a livello internazionale, quanto in ambito europeo. Pur non spingendosi sino a prevedere i possibili esiti delle dinamiche in corso, il contributo non rinuncia ad analizzarne luci ed ombre, anche alla luce delle difficoltà di tipizzazione delle fattispecie incriminatrici determinata dalla particolare complessità della materia ambientale.
The Fight Against Organized Crime. Amid Contrasting Strategies and Respect for Human Rights
2012
Regulatory interventions and the application of lessons from outcomes together with the renewed value of human rights in criminal proceedings demonstrate that the fight against organized crime at the European level requires constant attention to the balance between individual rights on the one hand and the need for an effective investigation on the other.
