Il consenso informato ai trattamenti sanitari sui minori e decisioni di fine vita. Riflessioni comparatistiche
2019
The essay deals with the informed consent to allow or to refuse medical treatment for pediatric patients, in a comparative law perspective. The first part focuses on the principle of personal autonomy and the rights to health and to life for patiens who lack capacity, as enshrined in Italian legislation. In determining care and treatment in relation to their child, parents have to take into account the physical and mental well-being, life and dignity of the person, as fully as possible (art. 3, L. 219/2017). The second part of the paper investigates the consequences of parents' refusal to interrupt or continue life-sustaining treatment in relation to infants suffering from serious and incur…
Nuova introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese. Le fonti
2016
Nella prefazione alla terza edizione, pubblicata nel 2000, alla Sua introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese l’Autore esprimeva un punto di vista risoluto e chiaro, consistente nella necessità della conoscenza del diritto inglese allo scopo di accrescere il dialogo tra i giuristi europei. E questo perché il riferimento al common law implica il rinvio a strutture di pensiero, a categorie giuridiche, a modelli normativi che comunque rappresentano esperienze originali e rilevanti nel continente europeo e possono orientare delicate scelte di politica del diritto in ambito comunitario: a tal proposito Giovanni Criscuoli ricordava come nel dibattito circa i possibili criteri di redazione dei …
Nuova introduzione al diritto inglese
2021
Il passaggio del tempo è già di per sé una ragione sufficiente per consigliare l’aggiornamento di un’opera attraverso la pubblicazione di una sua nuova edizione che contempli anche solo informazioni ed opinioni sopravvenute relative alla materia trattata. Il quinquennio trascorso da quando vide la luce la “Nuova introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese”, prosecuzione ideale e tematica dell’originaria fatica di Giovanni Criscuoli all’inizio del XXI secolo non è, tuttavia, la sola circostanza che mi ha indotto a curare e ad assumere la gravosa responsabilità della rinnovata edizione, sempre avvalendomi dell’indicazione con un asterisco delle parti da me direttamente redatte. Essa si è res…
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…
I respingimenti in mare di migranti alla luce della Convenzione europea dei diritti umani
2009
Forcible return of migrants and the European Convention on human rights - Italian authorities have recently undertaken a new policy to face migration flows from north african coasts. Since May, 6th 2009 Italian coastguard and financial police vessels have intercepted a large number of boats carrying migrants and returned them to Libya, in force of a readmission agreement between Italy and Libya. These operations, even if they take place on the high seas, have to comply with the European Convention for Human Rights, considering that the migrants fall under jurisdiction of Italian authorities within the meaning of art. 1 of the Convention. In particular, on the basis of the European Court of …

Inquisitio Contra Haereticos. The Inquisition Trials of Witches, Heretics and Secret Societies
2022
By means of very rare manuscripts and precious historical sources (dating back even to the 16th century), this book aims to reconstruct the varied and complex phenomenon of the Inquisition, with particular scientific reference to the events that took place and unfolded in Sicily through the centuries. Based on primary ancient documents, it constitutes a monographic and reasoned catalogue of the international exhibition on the evolution of the Inquisition, curated in Palermo (Italy) by Francesco Callari and Antonio Scaglione. The exhibition, which was supported by an authoritative Scientific Board, was awarded important institutional recognitions and, in particular, the Medal of the Presiden…

Misrecognizing Asylum. Causes, modalities and consequences of the crisis of a fundamental human right.
2017
The so-called contemporary refugee crisis can be defined as a European “right to asylum crisis”, a crisis of its fundamental principles: the protection of asylum seekers’ rights and the related principle of non-refoulement. Modalities and trends marking the recognition of asylum applicants as refugees, and of migrants as asylum seekers, will be considered along with the current implementation of the notion of a “safe country” within the context of EU texts on migration developed since 2015. This “right to asylum crisis” is then briefly analyzed as both a symptom and a cause of the European Union project’s wider political and cultural crisis.
