Il consenso informato ai trattamenti sanitari sui minori e decisioni di fine vita. Riflessioni comparatistiche
2019
The essay deals with the informed consent to allow or to refuse medical treatment for pediatric patients, in a comparative law perspective. The first part focuses on the principle of personal autonomy and the rights to health and to life for patiens who lack capacity, as enshrined in Italian legislation. In determining care and treatment in relation to their child, parents have to take into account the physical and mental well-being, life and dignity of the person, as fully as possible (art. 3, L. 219/2017). The second part of the paper investigates the consequences of parents' refusal to interrupt or continue life-sustaining treatment in relation to infants suffering from serious and incur…
Economic valuation of environmental benefits from wastewater treatment processes: An empirical approach for Spain
2009
Economic research into the design and implementation of policies for the efficient management of water resources has been emphasized by the European Water Framework Directive (Directive 2000/60/EC). The efficient implementation of policies to prevent the degradation and depletion of water resources requires determining their value in social and economic terms and incorporating this information into the decision-making process. A process of wastewater treatment has many associated environmental benefits. However, these benefits are often not calculated because they are not set by the market, due to inadequate property rights, the presence of externalities, and the lack of perfect information…
The Constitution of Latvia – A Bridge Between Traditions and Modernity
2019
The Latvian constitutional system is based on the principle of State continuity after the Soviet occupation, and this is reflected in the reinstatement of the 1922 Constitution (Satversme). Unlike other constitutions in the post-communist area, it is characterised as a laconic and predominantly procedural constitution. However, important amendments were introduced in 1996 and 1998, establishing the Constitutional Court and introducing a catalogue of fundamental rights. The constitutional culture has been influenced by German traditions in constitutional jurisprudence, and the adjudication of legislation on substantive grounds has been stringent. This is particularly evident in the annulment…
Nuova introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese. Le fonti
2016
Nella prefazione alla terza edizione, pubblicata nel 2000, alla Sua introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese l’Autore esprimeva un punto di vista risoluto e chiaro, consistente nella necessità della conoscenza del diritto inglese allo scopo di accrescere il dialogo tra i giuristi europei. E questo perché il riferimento al common law implica il rinvio a strutture di pensiero, a categorie giuridiche, a modelli normativi che comunque rappresentano esperienze originali e rilevanti nel continente europeo e possono orientare delicate scelte di politica del diritto in ambito comunitario: a tal proposito Giovanni Criscuoli ricordava come nel dibattito circa i possibili criteri di redazione dei …
Nuova introduzione al diritto inglese
2021
Il passaggio del tempo è già di per sé una ragione sufficiente per consigliare l’aggiornamento di un’opera attraverso la pubblicazione di una sua nuova edizione che contempli anche solo informazioni ed opinioni sopravvenute relative alla materia trattata. Il quinquennio trascorso da quando vide la luce la “Nuova introduzione allo studio del diritto inglese”, prosecuzione ideale e tematica dell’originaria fatica di Giovanni Criscuoli all’inizio del XXI secolo non è, tuttavia, la sola circostanza che mi ha indotto a curare e ad assumere la gravosa responsabilità della rinnovata edizione, sempre avvalendomi dell’indicazione con un asterisco delle parti da me direttamente redatte. Essa si è res…

Obligations and Remedies Under a Related Service Contract
2014
Following the model of Directive 2011/83/EU of the 25 October 2011 on consumer rights, the proposed CESL regulation is structured on the basis of sales and service contracts. With regard to service contracts, however, the CESL only regulates those service contracts whose existence is justified by their direct link to sales contracts.
Consumer rights and legal guarantees in the European Union under Directive 1999/44/EC
2019
In the modern world and united legislation across Europe consumer protection is becoming more influential and stronger. To everything positive there, of course, are drawbacks or so-called ‘’grey areas’’ which this research unveils. Because of certain principles set out by the European Union each country has the opportunity to create their own standards regarding guarantees and this research reveals to what extent consumer protection can go. To understand the reasoning for certain standards three countries are compared – Germany, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. With the use of different research methods and analysis answers to raised questions are found and concluded. Analyzing existing legi…
Consumption patterns, development and growth: Adam Smith, David Ricardo and Thomas Robert Malthus
2003
In this paper we combine the classical analysis of luxury consumption with the classical theories of development and growth. We also focus on the role played, within classical economics, by institutional factors such as the structure of property rights and contractual arrangements in determining consumption patterns and investment in agriculture. In particular, we show that Ricardo's and Malthus' different views on the role of consumption expenditure in promoting growth depend on Ricardo's acceptance (Malthus' refusal) of Say's law of markets and on Ricardo's exclusion (Malthus' inclusion) of a non-commodity option such as leisure from (in) the range of available consumption alternatives.
La responsabilità dirigenziale al cospetto del giudice ordinario
2021
This paper makes a case for the “contractual-publicist” nature of the managers’ liability regime, although this matter lies within the scope of civil courts’ jurisdiction. Even though the law assigns civil courts the role in deciding disputes regarding potential infringement of public managers claims, these should be considered legitimate expectations (public law) and not rights (civil law). Except for the recovery of the executive jurisdiction of the administrative court, if the administration refuses to fulfil the civil judgment and the public manager spontaneously appeals for compliance, rather than (or together with) the civil one of forced execution.
