Human Rights and Substantive Equality in the Adjudication of Ethnic Practices
2016
With the development of human rights and anti-discrimination law, courts have increasingly been called upon to protect ethnicity related practices from general criminal and civil sanctions.

Nuevo criterio interpretativo de los derechos fundamentales conforme a los tratados internacionales de derechos humanos en la Constitución Española
2011
RESUMEN. En las siguientes líneas se pretende argumentar a la luz del ordenamiento jurídico español la existencia de razones jurídicas (válidas y suficientes) para catalogar como “criterio interpretativo de los Derechos Fundamentales” a los Tratados Internacionales de Derechos Humanos, aportando cuatro tipos de argumentos: El primero, se deduce de la naturaleza jurídica de los tratados como fuentes del Derecho Internacional y como obligaciones internacionales para el Estado. El segundo, deriva de la incorporación automática de los Tratados al Derecho interno consolidándose como parte del ordenamiento jurídico.
