Nordic penal exceptionalism: A comparative, empirical analysis
2022
Abstract Based on a survey administered in 13 prisons in England & Wales and Norway, as part of a research programme with explicitly comparative aims, this article seeks to address both the relative and absolute dimensions of the Nordic penal exceptionalism thesis. It outlines the consistently more positive results in Norway compared to England & Wales, explaining them primarily with reference to the former’s much higher quality and use of open prisons. At the same time, it emphasizes that, even in an unusually humane prison system, prisoners report considerable pain and frustration. The article also makes the case that comparative analysis should strive to be systematic, but that s…
In light of the ends. Copyright hysteresis and private copy exception after the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA) and oth…
2015
In British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA) and others v Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, the High Court of Justice in matter of private copy exception provides the twofold prime opportunity to shed light on the state of the art of copyright in the UK and to flesh out the idea of 'legal hysteresis’. I support the reintroduction of the private copy exception, possibly in a less narrow fashion, and I explain the reasons why I am confident that my expectations will be fulfilled.
The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA): What Kind of Space is Given to Fair Trade and Labour Rights?
2017
Il presente lavoro analizza da una prospettiva giuslavoristica il Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), trattato internazionale di libero scambio, da poco sottoscritto da Unione Europea e Canada: il saggio si interroga se tale trattato possa contribuire o meno allo sviluppo del fair trade all'interno delle democrazie occidentali. Nel dettaglio l'articolo analizza le clausole del CETA alla luce dei core labour standards dell'ILO, con un focus sulle clausole arbitrali di risoluzione delle controversie (Investor-State Dispute Settlement), sulle forme di partecipazione della società civile e sui meccanismi di eccezione. Nelle conclusioni, nonostante la tendenziale omogeneità socio-…
Differences in Immaterial Details: Dimensional Conversion and Its Implications for Protecting Digital Designs Under EU Design Law
2021
AbstractThe paper considers three main questions: the legal status of digital designs from the perspective of EU design law, whether the protection is tied to the reproduction of physical products, and whether the scope of protection covers dimensional conversion such as using a 3D design in 2D form or vice versa. There are two sets of views regarding dimensional conversion: the “abstract” and the “concrete” view. These two different attitudes towards the scope of protection influence the manner in which the protectability of digital designs is assessed. In the “abstract” protection, it would not matter whether a product only exists as a digital image and not as a physical shape. In the “co…
The strike in private international law
2014
The development of the strike in the international order can appreciate richness and diversity of the collective expression of workers, it also increased competition from different national laws. The absence of a regulation reflects the difficulty of controlling the legal concept and it creates a conflict of laws and courts. The need for the adoption of rules of conflict, which determines the law and the competent court, has therefore become necessary to provide an answer to this conflict problem. The character of the fundamental right to strike, however, requires to be special protection when its value is questioned by an authority designated by the conflict rule foreign law. As such, the …

La culture en campagne : de l'atonie à la mobilisation antifasciste. Politique culturelle et débat public en France lors des élections de 2002
2004
International audience; Cet article part de l'absence de débat sur la politique culturelle au cours de la campagne électorale des élections présidentielles et législatives du printemps 2002. Il montre les ressorts de cette atonie, avant d'expliquer le réflexe anti-fasciste qui marque les semaines qui suivent le premier tour des présidentielles et la présence de Jean-Marie Le Pen au second tour. L'analyse de la défaite du candidat socialiste est aussi un moment de remise en cause du modèle français de politique culturelle. Le débat s'estompe vite et ne débouche pas sur la mise en place d'une politique culturelle 'refondée'.

Architettura in alzato. Questioni di territorio, paesaggio, ambiente
2021
Negata alla tipologia l’architettura del Sud nel saggio riconosce una specifica identità e perfetta eccezionalità nell’essenza del luogo. Se la facciata istituisce un rapporto con l’estetica del paesaggio, i temi che essa sottende definiscono altre significative relazioni. L’ordinamento logico delle membrature, la chiarezza geometrica e il rigore dei rapporti rimandano ad una architettura che si misura, ed è misura stessa, del territorio e della sua morfologia. A sua volta, lo spessore della facciata esprime la relazione con l’ambiente e interpreta in maniera poetica i condizionamenti climatici, intervenendo sul controllo della luce, sui vuoti nei paramenti murari, sulla determinazione dell…
