Desobediencia civil y teoría del derecho Tomar los conflictos en serio
2016
El tema de la desobediencia civil se centra en una de las cuestiones clásicas de la filosofía del derecho, como es aquella de la obligatoriedad de la ley injusta. Sin embargo, hoy en día, las prácticas de desobediencia civil plantean también otras cuestiones, que se debaten de forma polémica, como la tesis de la «separabilidad» entre el derecho y la moral y la naturaleza de la interpretación jurídica de los documentos normativos que tienen un contenido vago y ambiguo, como es el caso de la Constitución Italiana o la Española. En particular, analizamos el caso de las prácticas de desobediencia de carácter público y no violento que violan algunas normas con la finalidad de denunciar no sólo s…
Giustizia sovranazionale e migrazioni: disvelando le ambiguità dell’Europa dei diritti, a partire da una critica a Il diritto dei popoli di John Ralws
2022
This paper questions the basis of the power of States to regulate immigration on their territory, by highlighting the contradictions, hypocrisies and omissions that mark both the institutional management of immigration and some theories, such as the one outlined in John Rawls' The Law of Peoples, that this management legitimize more or less directly. The perpetration of injustice on the international arena and the violations of law and rights that derive from it are therefore underlined, taking for example the hypocrisies connected with the application of international refugee law, also in light of the recent terrible evolutions to which the Ukrainian crisis has led.
Desobediencia civil y participación política. Unas cuestiones abiertas para las democracias constitucionales (y la teoría del derecho)
2015
In this article I try to show some problems of the interpretation of civil disobedience as a practice that aims to maintain democratic principles against discriminative legal patterns or oligarchic forces. I will present two doctrines, the Rawlsian (followed by Habermas) and the one proposed recently by supporters of a radical constitutional change through the exercise of “constituent power”. The Rawlsian account a) offers a too stringent model of justification of this type of practice and b) does not recognize the plurality of subjects to which civil disobedience appeal. The supporters of radical constitutional change fall into a form of heterogony of ends. They reject liberal accounts of …
Overlapping consensus e cross-cultural approach: Rawls e An-Na'im, due mondi a confronto

Basic structure and tax havens
2012
In this paper I argue that Rawlsian Law of People (LP) is much more useful to the debate on international distributive justice than it is commonly assumed by many leading political philosophers (Pogge, Nussbaum, Sen, Beitz, Singer). I will show: 1) that these criticisms are misleading, insofar as they do not take the concept of basic structure seriously, and they reduce LP to an instance of ethical statism or of acritical acceptance of cultural pluralism; 2) that the basic domestic structures, and the principles that govern them, depend on the law of peoples and its principles as well. Therefore it is not true that each basic structure is independent of what occurs in the international fiel…
¿Qué podemos pedir a una teoría de la justicia? Algunas consideraciones acerca de un debate entre Amartya Sen y John Rawls
2010
In this paper I try to revise Sen’s thesis about the «transcendental» nature of Rawls’ theory of justice. According to Sen transcendental theories of justice are unnecessary. What we aim at is to justify a series of comparative judgements about two or more states of affairs.We do not strive, unlike Rawls, to form a complete system of moral principles that backs an «ideal just society». I try to show that Sen’s «comparative» account is weak. First of all, Sen does not offer a fair interpretation of Rawls’ theory. In particular, he is wrong when he depicts Rawls’ justice as fairness as a complete and transcendental moral doctrine. Secondly, Sen overlooks the fact that in order to justify comp…
El declive de la ética de las capacidades
2013
Capability approach is one of the most important contributions of contemporary political philosophy to the subject of international distributive justice and more generally to the implementation of development policies. In this paper I aim to shed light on some pitfalls of the last production of Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum. Sen’s last book “The idea of justice” introduced his theory as a “comparative” approach to issues of justice, while rejecting “transcendental” approaches such as Rawls’one. I will show how this dichotomy between comparative and transcendental approach is mistaken, since it rests on wrong assumptions on what we can require from a theory of justice. As far as Nussbaum i…
Rawls ed An-Na’im in dialogo. Reciprocità, Islam e Costituzionalismo
2018
Constitutionalism and Islam are the theoretical framework of An- Na’im’ Islamic reformation. This proposal is possible on the herme- neutic role of the naskh for a new interpretation of the Qur’an and Sunna, based on the principle of reciprocity. Is the An-Na’im’s notion of civic reason a ‘friendly amendment’ to Rawls’idea of public reason? Making sense of the reciprocity and the reasonable as normative and moral ideal in the two thinkers, through the necessary dimension of the constitutionalism, can overcome their differences.
Association between Satisfaction with Life and Personality Types A and D in Young Women with Acne Vulgaris
2020
People with acne vulgaris report a lower level of satisfaction with life and are more frequently classified as having Type D personalities than those without acne. This research examined, for the first time, the moderating and mediating role of personality type in the relationship between acne severity and satisfaction with life. Among 300 female nursing and cosmetology students ranging in age from 19 to 24 years (M = 21.28, SD= 1.39), 150 individuals (50%) presented with symptoms of acne vulgaris (AV group), while the other 150 (50%) were categorized as controls without acne vulgaris (WAV sample). A cross-sectional study was conducted using three self-report questionnaires: The Satisfactio…
