Filosofía del derecho internacional, violencia y masculinidad hegemónica = Philosophy of international law, violence and hegemonic masculinity
2019
RESUMEN: La violencia es considerada a menudo un elemento consustancial al ambito internacional: algo que el derecho internacional puede quiza reducir pero no eliminar completamente. Este trabajo se hace eco de las criticas feministas al derecho internacional poniendolas en relacion con los conceptos elaborados por los estudios sobre masculinidades. Que el derecho internacional sea una disciplina historicamente manejada por hombres encuentra su proyeccion sobre cinco ambitos: 1) el concepto de estado en tanto que actor principal del derecho internacional, 2) el sistema de fuentes, en particular, los tratados internacionales; 3) la aplicacion de las normas internacionales a traves de tribuna…
Occupazione militare e tutela della proprietŕ privata
2012
Moving from the complementary relationship between International Humanitarian Law and International Human Rights Law, this article analyses the issue of private property in occupied territory from the civilians perspective. In the attempt to verify if contemporaneous practice has modified customary international law obligations of Occupying Powers, the Author highlights the complex and heterogeneous evolution of the protection of the right to private property. On the one hand, practice confirms the strengthening of its safeguard by the extensive interpretation of the absolute prohibition on confiscation, forbidding an occupying power to take "permanent" measures of dispossession and de fact…
Slaveries and New Slaveries: Which Role for Human Dignity?
2020
This paper aims at reflecting on the role of the notion of "human dignity" with respect to slavery and new slaveries. First of all, a very brief reflection is carried out on the different legal meanings of the notion at stake in general terms (para. 2). On this basis, some remarks are developed with specific regard to the role played by dignity concerning new slaveries in the case law of international tribunals (European and Inter-American Courts of Human Rights, International Criminal Court, International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia: paras 3 and 4), particularly in the very recent case law of the European Court (para. 5) Such a role is far from being insignificant: the idea…
Investment Arbitration and the Controverted Right of the Arbitrator to Issue a Separate or Dissenting Opinion
2018
Abstract Although dissents are not generally encouraged in international arbitration, they are a reality of investment treaty disputes. About one in five cases includes at least one separate or dissenting opinion. The ICSID Convention is rare among investment arbitration rules to expressly recognise the right of the arbitrator to attach his or her personal opinion to the award. Other investment arbitration rules are silent on the topic. And yet dissenting opinions are an established feature of several international courts and tribunals and their role is often viewed more benevolently than in investment arbitration. The article explores the perceived advantages and disadvantages of dissents …

The main findings are that the current international legislation regarding cannabis is outdated, ineffective and actually obstructs the society from researching t…
From impact refugees to deterritorialized states: Foresighting extreme legal-policy cases in asteroid impact scenarios
2022
Throughout recorded history, humans have crossed national borders to seek safety in nearby countries. The reasons for displacement have been generated by phenomena of terrestrial origin, but exposure to unexpected extra-terrestrial threats poses a different scenario. An asteroid impact warning implies a change of paradigm which would represent a historic precedent. In this regard, the analogies with natural disasters must be considered, along with multiple possible scenarios, and legal aspects related to (a) the legal framework to regulate this situation; (b) the action and responsibility of the states; and (c) the definition of impact refugee and the reconfiguration of traditional concepts…
Fra stato di necessità ed (illecito) intervento economico: il terzo "bail out" della Grecia
2015
Il lavoro affronta due questioni poste dall'intervento economico del Fondo monetario internazionale e del MES nella crisi del debito greco: da un lato, quello della sostenibilità del debito stesso e dell'applicabilità dei principi di diritto internazionale in tema di stato di necessità; da un altro lato, quello del carattere particolarmente intrusivo delle condizioni poste alla Grecia e della sua valutazione alla luce del principio di non intervento negli affari interni.
