Ideology, Nationalism and Law: Legal Tools for an Ideological Machinery in Latvia
2016
For around 25 years Latvia has moved further and further away from Soviet Marxism-Leninist state ideology and has successfully re-integrated with European legal culture.

Los nuevos derechos sociales: El derecho al cuidado como fundamento del pacto constitucional
2016
ResumenNos encontramos ante un momento histórico y político que sugiere una revisión constitucional, con necesidades específicas y diferentes a las de 1978. Existen nuevas demandas que exigen que se revise el pacto constitucional. Algunas afectan directamente al catálogo de derechos, especialmente a los llamados derechos sociales, y se refieren por un lado, a la necesidad de otorgar a los derechos sociales ya reconocidos la consideración de fundamentales con todo lo que ello conlleva; y por otro, a la necesidad de crear nuevos derechos. El previsible aumento de personas necesitadas de cuidados, la escasez de servicios públicos para su asistencia, el tipo de cuidado informal prestado casi ex…
