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 …
Disobbedienza civile o lotta per il diritto? Un bilancio di cinque anni di criminalizzazione del soccorso in mare
2022
this contribution traces the main stages of the process of criminalization of non-governmental organizations' search and rescue activities in the Central Mediterranea Sea, to light the paradoxes and the shadows. The theoretical framework is that of the civil disobedience and its counterpart, the obligation to obey the law. This perspective, emblematic for investigating complexity, limits and potential of the law itself, has been used because it can bring out the specificity of the positions assumed by the main players involved in the events, as well as the legal and socio-cultural consequences of their actions, by interrogating the dimensions of legality and justice.
SUBJETIVISMO ÉTICO Y OBJECIÓN DE CONCIENCIA
2018
In this paper, I will present the conceptual differences between civil disobedience and conscientious objection, which have been depicted by liberal authors such as J. Rawls, J. Raz and in Spain by M. Gascón Abellán. I will argue that conscientious objection, as a practice that is distinct from civil disobedience and rests on a right to “moral privacy”, finds his justification on a subjectivist ethics or on a voluntarist account of natural law. I will try to show that in both cases, it is not clear how a) to justify legal norms that tries to balance the objectors’ claims and the opposite claims of rights’ holders b) to determine the seriousness of the ethical commitment of conscientious obj…
La giuridicità del diritto di resistenza nello Stato costituzional-democratico: una proposta teorica
Il presente lavoro intende indagare i profili di giuridicità del diritto di resistenza come un “diritto giuridico” e una pratica costituzionale giustificabile sul terreno normativo. L’ambito della ricerca è circoscritto agli ordinamenti costituzional-democratici. L’obiettivo finale è mostrare che alcuni casi di “resistenza” dovrebbero essere protetti dalla costituzione ed esentati parzialmente o totalmente dalla punizione prevista per la trasgressione della norma giuridica resistita. È questo il caso di “resistenza costituzionale” e “disobbedienza civile”. Tuttavia, le definizioni di questo tipo di atteggiamenti nei confronti del diritto rimangono generalmente vaghe anche nella letteratura …
About some psychological variables correlated with dogmatism
1983
The relationships between dogmatism and some perceptual-cognitive, personality, and attitudinal indices were investigated for 40 men and 40 women. Dogmatism scores correlated negatively with the scores in Witkin's Group Embedded Figures Test and on the Flexibility scale from Gough's California Psychological Inventory. Correlations were positive for a favorable attitude towards concepts like Discipline, Obedience, Social order, measured by the semantic differential. Some incongruities between obtained data and Rokeach's (1960) findings are pointed out.

Explaining the Inexplicable: Differences in Attributions for the Holocaust in Germany, Israel, and Poland
2016
Seventy years have passed since the Holocaust, but this cataclysmic event continues to reverberate in the present. In this research, we examine attributions about the causes of the Holocaust and the influence of such attributions on intergroup relations. Three representative surveys were conducted among Germans, Poles, and Israeli Jews to examine inter- and intragroup variations in attributions for the Holocaust and how these attributions influence intergroup attitudes. Results indicated that Germans made more external than internal attributions and were especially low in attributing an evil essence to their ancestors. Israelis and Poles mainly endorsed the obedient essence attribution and …
Desobediencia: ¿Derecho o estrategia? A propósito de la reivindicación de la “política de desobediencia civil” en Catalunya
2018
RESUMEN: Aunque la tradicion de la desobediencia civil y, mas lejos aun, la del derecho a resistencia tiene antecedentes muy claros, hoy se ha producido un giro. El incremento del fenomeno de la indignacion y revuelta contra el sistema ha propiciado lo que algunos consideran estrategia de desobediencia e incluso politica de desobediencia. Em este articulo se discute esa hipotesis desde la experiencia que procura la experiencia vivida en los dos ultimos anos en Cataluna. ABSTRACT: We are possibly facing a turning point in the tradition of the right of resistance and even civil disobedience. From the globalization of the phenomenon of the indignados, the recourse to the strategy of disobedie…

Emotional Seesaw, Compliance, and Mindlessness
2001
Research on emotion conducted so far has ignored situations where the subject experiences a certain emotion, but where the external stimulus that evoked and upholds this emotion suddenly disappears. This kind of situation, however, is relatively common in everyday life. This article attempts to recognize certain consequences of those conditions under which the stimuli justifying our experience of such emotional states as fear or joy suddenly disappear. Research done to date by the author and colleagues indicates increased compliance of the subject when addressed with various requests, commands, or suggestions in the situation termed here “emotional seesaw.” The classical “live” example tha…
