El laberinto de la sucesión de estados respecto de los tratados internacionales sobre derechos humanos
2021
This Article analyses the effects of succession of States in respect of international treaties on human rights. This is a matter not codified by the Vienna Convention on Succession of States in respect of Treaties. We have to bear in mind that human rights treaties have been adopted by international organisations, which have developed their own practice both for the succession of States as States Members of an international organisation and for the succession of States as Contracting Parties to treaties that the United Nations, the Council of Europe or the European Union have adopted in the field of human rights.
The Fight Against Organized Crime. Amid Contrasting Strategies and Respect for Human Rights
2012
Regulatory interventions and the application of lessons from outcomes together with the renewed value of human rights in criminal proceedings demonstrate that the fight against organized crime at the European level requires constant attention to the balance between individual rights on the one hand and the need for an effective investigation on the other.
El recurso al derecho penal en el ordenamiento jurídico español para la consecución del principio de igualdad entre hombres y mujeres
2020
Los últimos años estamos asistiendo al uso y abuso del derecho penal en la protección de derechos fundamentales. En estas líneas reflexionamos sobre el uso del derecho penal en el ordenamiento jurídico español en la búsqueda del principio de igualdad entre hombres y mujeres. Estudiamos la LO 1/2004 y los motivos del mayor desvalor del golpe del hombre sobre la mujer, que es su pareja, así como la legitimidad de discriminación en las normas penales para igualar desigualando.
The residence permit for third-country nationals who are victims of human trafficking: A double-face instrument between compliance strategy and prote…
2017
Purpose The aim of the present study is to explore institutional design strategies that promote compliance by regulating peculiar sorts of agents, namely, human trafficking victims, starting from the point of view that institutions assume addressee virtue, but instead should consider the hypothesis of non-compliance or that the measures adopted reveal their inefficiency to satisfy the goals they were thought for, or that they are applied to obtain scopes, which are different from the ones they were conceived for. Design/methodology/approach Different methodological approaches, both deductive and inductive, are combined in the present paper, together with comparative and philosophical insig…
The political, legal and moral scope of the universal declaration of human rights: pending issues
2018
With the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a new era began in the recognition and guarantee of human rights in the international area. However, since the moment of its approval, this text has received negative evaluations designed to relegate it to the background. The responses to these criticisms allow us to review their political and legal scope, and put it in value as a reference model in the field of human rights, delving into the pending issues to strengthen it. This is intended, on the seventieth anniversary of the Declaration, to insist that this remains an essential bridge to clarify standards that can serve as a basis for discussion between different cultures a…
Derechos humanos y virtudes fundamentales
2013
Al establecer los derechos humanos dentro de un constitucionalismo democrático en vez de hacerlo en la verdad de la persona, los legalismos entran en un círculo infinito. Entonces, es necesario asentarlos en un fundamento pre-legal, previo a toda deliberación que incluya las virtudes clásicas de la coexistencia humana que hacen posible cualquier proceso democrático. Aunque este documento se centra básicamente en la justicia, el éxito, el coraje y la templanza como los goznes de toda virtud, también se refiere al valor del compañerismo, la simplicidad, la austeridad, la lealtad y la confianza hacia otros. Pero todo este marco axiológico nos obliga naturalmente a mirar hacia la familia, donde…

Oblio, identità e verità (parte seconda)
2022
Può esistere un diritto a dimenticare a fronte di indiscutibile diritto a ricordare, senza che si consegni alle Corti il potere di riscrivere la storia eliminando frammenti della sua memoria? È attorno tale interrogativo che si snodano le riflessioni dell’autore, dirette ad accertare l’esistenza e la natura di un diritto all’oblio, inteso come diritto ad essere dimenticati. La rivoluzione digitale ha consentito la creazione di un archivio infinito e permanente, ma legittimo appare il dubbio circa l’opportunità di un suo indiscriminato sviluppo e di una illimitata tutela del diritto alla memoria, a fronte di istanze di tutela individuale di dignità umana. La risposta, secondo l’autore, è nel…
L'homosexualité et la constitution de la famille : situations française et européenne
2016
The 2013-404 law of 17 May 2013 which opened up the possibility for people of the same gender to get married shows a turning point for the family rights in France. This law, sometimes described as a real tsunami, is the outcome of taking into account the homosexuals' claim for starting a family. Before 2013 the French right did not allow a homosexual couple to be a homoparental family. It did not authorize people of the same gender to get married. Moreover Assisted Reproduction is only reserved to heterosexual couples and Gestation for Others is strictly forbidden in France. This seemingly constrained consensus on the non-legal recognition of the homosexual family is reinforced by the Europ…
