Le hasard dans le droit de l'Union européenne en matière d'accès au territoire de l'Union
2019
The article explores the question of "chance" in the European Union Law in the field of the admission of third States citizens and asylum seekers to the territory of the European Union. Le hasard fait son apparition dans le droit de l'Union européenne en matière de d'accès au territoire de l'Union pour les ressortissants des pays tiers, meme pour les demandeurs d'asile ou pour les personnes en besoin de protection. Dans ce contexte, le hasard perd les caractères habituels qui lui sont reconnus par les Etats membres de l'Union pour devenir un instrument de dissuasion au service de la priorité politique de reduire les mouvements migratoires.
Il diritto di voto secondo la Corte europea dei diritti dell'uomo e secondo la Corte comunitaria
2007
By two judgments of 12 september 2006 (Kingdom of Spain v. United Kingdom and Eman, Sevinger v. College van burgemeester en wethouders van Den Haag), the Court of Justice of the European Communities found that the provisions of the EC Treaty “contain no rule defining expressly and precisely who are to be entitled to the right to vote and stand as a candidate for the European Parliament”. As a con- senquence, in the current state of community law, the definition of these persons “falls within the competence of each Member State”. The Court pointed out that in the exercise of their competence Member States may not act contrary to EC law and in particular to the principle of equal treatment or…
The Social State Based on the Rule of Law in the Europe of Rights
2012
Chapter 8 shows how the idea of the social State under the rule of law has been linked to the European Union since its inception. The founding fathers (Adenaeur, de Gasperi, Monet, Schuman) set the principles of dignity, freedom, equality and solidarity as a way of freeing European citizens from fear, misery and misfortune. Welfare is, above all, a state of justice that defines the threshold between indecency and well-being and affirms that human development is not (only) economic growth. Jacques Maritain, whose influence on the European Union is well known, proclaimed the order that contains the three principles of the social state: the primacy of the person, the priority of civil society …
La sécurité, la fondation de l'Etat centrafricain : contribution à la recherche de l'Etat de droit
2012
“Ensuring order and security” is a deep-seated desire shared by the whole of humanity. It is therefore reasonable to devote this thesis to the place occupied by insecurity in public debate in the Central African Republic, a state covering roughly the same surface area as France. Security implies that the weight of fear or terror is removed. If order and security are to be genuinely ensured in the Central African Republic, more is required than the absence of bloodshed and the protection of each citizen’s physical integrity. It is also essential that the rights of all be respected and that all citizens should be entitled to the protection of their rights as well as their possessions. Legal s…
Tortura y malos tratos en la España democrática
2020
La tortura en la España contemporánea y democrática es una realidad preocupante, como lo muestran Informes de los más relevantes organismos internacionales en la lucha y prevención de la tortura, como el Comité Europeo para la Prevención de la tortura del Consejo de Europa, ONG, sentencias internas del Estado español y, gravemente, sentencias del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos. Estas condenas a España del TEDH se producen por la violación del artículo 3 del Convenio Europeo de Derechos Humanos, por no realizar de manera exhaustiva y adecuada las investigaciones ante denuncias por malos tratos y torturas, y la última condena también por tratos inhumanos. Realidades que ponen al desnudo…

EUIPO Boards of Appeal in the Light of the Principle of Fair Trial
2022
The EUIPO’s Boards of Appeal are called upon to decide on appeals against decisions by the bodies of ‘first instance’. However, their judicial function has always been denied. Conversely, the essay tends to place the Boards of Appeal of the EUIPO in any case within the concept of ‘court’, as defined by the ECtHR, within the framework of Article 6 ECtHR, because it assesses their independence, impartiality, and in general the guarantees required by the ‘fair trial’, until concluding that it is a paradigmatic model in the overall administration and judicial system. EUIPO Boards of Appeal, European Court of Human Rights, Court of Justice of the Eurpean Union, EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, …
The expansion of early childhood development services and the need to reconceptualize evidence
2017
The provision of early childhood development services is expanding in developing countries. The rationale behind this expansion is rooted in developmental psychology, socio-economic and human rights narratives. However, there are some limitations to this rationale, which are in particular related to the implicit universalism it assumes. This article outlines how early childhood development interventions imply a policing of families and childhood, which calls for a stronger consideration of context. As a consequence, the scope of what counts as evidence in early childhood development research needs to be questioned. The article is a theoretical contribution to the discourse of what early ch…
A Critical Analysis of the Explicit and Implicit Treatment of Human Rights Education in Early Childhood Education Textbooks
2020
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child explicitly recognizes that children are entitled to the full range of civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. Despite the powerful social function of textbooks in legitimizing cultural norms in primary and secondary education, there has been little attention on human rights issues in early childhood education (ECE) curricular materials. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the explicit and implicit representation of human rights education (HRE) in ECE textbooks. Our quantitative and qualitative results show that ECE textbooks failed to find any explicit mention of children’s rights, an excessive attention focused on t…
