Hate Speech e messaggi discriminatori: riflessioni internazionalistiche sul caso Casapound c. Facebook
2021
In this intervention the idea is submitted that the interim measures in the case Casapound v. Facebook, by means of which Fb Ireland was ordered by the Rome Tribunal (on December 12, 2019) to reactivate the profile of the extreme right wing political association Casapound - previously closed as a consequence of an alleged violation of fb standards concerning hate speech - can be criticized under international and european law. Such criticisms stem both from the overall picture of the international and european legal standards concerning hate speech (par. 2) and from the relevant case law of the European Court of Human rights (paras. 3 and 4).
Enhancing Bank Transparency: A Re-assessment
2001
Transparency regulation aims at reducing financial fragility by strengthening market discipline. There are however two elementary properties of banking that may render such regulation inefficient at best and detrimental at worst. First, an extensive financial safety net may eliminate the disciplinary effect of transparency regulation. Second, achieving transparency is costly for banks, as it dilutes their charter values, and hence it also reduces their private costs of risk-taking. We consider both the direct costs of complying with disclosure requirements and the indirect transparency costs stemming from imperfect property rights governing information and specify the conditions under which…
L’integrazione dei Musulmani in Europa e la circolazione della banca e della finanza islamica (Integration of Muslims in Europe and Circulation of Is…
2018
Italian Abstract: Lo stabilizzarsi di comunita islamiche all'interno dell'Unione Europea impone l'attenzione sulle peculiarita legate alla realta islamica. Lo “spazio della sharī'a”, infatti, lungi dal confinarsi nel medio oriente si estende all'Unione Europea attraverso i luoghi di lavoro, le scuole, gli ospedali, i tribunali e i mercati. All’espansione dei modelli normativi islamici hanno contribuito, in particolare, le politiche di “ristrutturazione” dell'ordinamento islamico degli anni '80 del secolo scorso e l'intensificarsi dei flussi migratori a partire degli anni '90, creando un terreno fertile al dispiegarsi delle potenzialita della sharī'a a livello transnazionale, offrendo a sogg…

Hunger and Food Charity in Rich Societies: What Hope for the Right to Food?
2014
First World Hunger: Food Security and Welfare Politics (Riches, 1997a) offered the first cross-national study of the emergence and entrenchment of food aid and charitable food banking from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s. It consists of five case studies from advanced industrial countries with developed ‘liberal’ welfare states: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and the USA. All of the countries were food exporters and food secure through national production and imports, suggesting that domestic hunger could not be caused by the failure to provide sufficient food and nutrition, but rather was a matter of distributional justice and human rights — that is a fundamentally political issue.
Art education to train teachers in human rights and sexual diversity
2020
En el presente trabajo se analizan las posibilidades de un museo online para ofrecer al futuro profesorado de educación primaria recursos in-novadores, materiales gratuitos y accesibles con los que impulsar un mayor conocimiento de los colectivos LGTB a través del arte.

La educación artística avanza hacia modelos porosos, y el colectivo docente comprometido con las problemáticas sociales necesita más información. Incorporamos estas cuestiones a la formación inicial de maestros/as de primaria. La…
Fragilità e situazioni carcerarie tra circuiti, sezioni protette e diritti negati
2023
Uno sguardo alle funzioni del carcere attraverso la lente della fragilità consente di mettere in luce i limiti dell’attuale sistema penitenziario invitando l’interprete a riflettere su possibili soluzioni per contenerne i noti effetti negativi. L’organizzazione degli spazi, tra circuiti, sezioni e regimi, è espressione di come negli anni sia prevalsa la preoccupazione per la sicurezza, finendo, questa, per assorbire la rieducazione e la tutela di tanti diritti dei detenuti. A look at the functions of the prison through the lens of fragility allows us to highlight the limits of the current penitentiary system, inviting the interpreter to reflect on possible solutions to contain its known neg…
The Protection of the Right of Freedom on the European Union Level: The European Arrest Warrant and Non-custodial Pre Trial Measures. The Guideline o…
2012
“Protection of fundamental rights in particular must be central to the operation of the system:” this formula, found at the heart of the most recent official assessment of the EAW (2011), perfectly summarizes, in terms of political policy, the progressive shift of emphasis from efficiency and security towards the primacy of the protection of individual rights across the entire field of EU measures restricting individual liberty. The experience gained in terms of the principle of proportionality thus becomes a basic paradigm for the interpretation of the system in terms of applied law. The three levels through which the filter of proportionality has operated in the system of the EAW (multile…
Las recientes reformas europeas en materia de libertad sindical y negociación colectiva: ¿Tiene algo que decir el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humano…
2019
In June 2012, the European Union (EU) disbursed 41.3 billion Euros to the Spanish government to cover the banking liquidity needs. This "rescue" not only involved reforms related to the regulation of the financial sector. They also brought the labor reforms of 2010-2012. Such reforms involved a radical change in the model of Union Law in our country, and were originated in the context of a UE procedure for excessive deficit. Within the framework of this procedure, Spain had to address the reform of the labor relations system. Law 3/2012, of July 6, of urgent measures for the reform of the labor market, complied with the conditions imposed by the European Council to that effect. The internat…
