A new and controversial scenario in the gathering of evidence at the European level: The proposal for a directive on the European investigation order
2014
In April 2010 a group of EU Member States proposed a Directive on the European Investigation Order, an instrument which, if adopted, will significantly change the way in which evidence is gathered at the EU level. After the failure of the EEW, which focused on the exchange of evidence which had already been gathered, the objective of the new text is to create a single instrument for obtaining all kinds of evidence located in another Member State. The aim of this paper is to examine, within the current framework, the suitability of this new instrument, with particular reference to its impact on the rights of defendants.
Social constitutionalism and the sustainable development goals (sdg)
2021
El Derecho Constitucional, y especialmente el Constitucionalismo Social, no puede quedar al margen del análisis de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). En efecto, la Agenda 2030 constituye una Agenda de Constitucionalismo Global de naturaleza básicamente social. Desde esta perspectiva, los ODS integran una especie de Pilar Universal de Derechos Sociales y, como consecuencia, inspiran el modelo social europeo y la realización de los derechos sociales en el orden constitucional nacional. Con tales premisas, el autor somete a análisis el valor interpretativo y la efectividad de los ODS en el sistema constitucional español a través de ilustraciones de la práctica legislativa, ejecutiva…
Europa social: cuestiones para un futuro debate

Una segunda parte del trabajo se dedicará a plantear ciertos temas concretos que deberían ser objeto de tratamiento en el futuro, entre ellos, los siguientes: la reformulación del art…

Rights of Young People and the European Social Charter
2021
The European Social Charter (alongside the case-law of the European Committee of Social Rights) forms the most striking binding legal source for young people’s social rights, providing a framework for synergies with both the European Union and the Council of Europe’s other instruments and mechanisms in this area. In the current times of pandemic, the most important thing is preventing the COVID-19 crisis (which has economic, political and social dimensions) from becoming a crisis of values among young people. From this perspective, on the one hand, the paper focuses on access of young people to education, labour market and housing. On the other hand, it proposes measures aimed at raising aw…
PROVA TECNICA E CONTRADDITTORIO NEL PROCESSO PENALE
2023
When science and the criminal process come into contact, cognitive mechanisms are set in motion aimed at reorganizing knowledge belonging to worlds other than the legal one. In this context, the actors of the trial scene are forced to move on a hybrid terrain in which judicial epistemology and scientific epistemology mix. Such a fascinating picture pushes the scholar of the criminal process to seek interpretations suitable for explaining the multiple dilemmas that the phenomenon entails. Starting from a historical-legislative excursus of the expert evidence, the proposed analysis examines the different channels through which expert knowledge enters the process, starting from the investigati…
Report on Italy
2019
The right to take part personally in criminal proceedings, although not expressly provided at a Constitutional level, is an expression of the principle of a fair trial upheld by Article 6 of the ECHR and translated into Article 111 of the Italian Constitution. In the course of years, the CCP, also following some condemnations by the Strasbourg Court, underwent several modifications aimed at implementing principles and conditions affirmed by the ECHR that can legitimate proceedings in absentia of a defendant. This study is structured into different parts. In the first, an analysis of national rules concerning the participation of a defendant and other private parties at each stage of proceed…

Hate Speech e messaggi discriminatori: riflessioni internazionalistiche sul caso Casapound c. Facebook
2021
In this intervention the idea is submitted that the interim measures in the case Casapound v. Facebook, by means of which Fb Ireland was ordered by the Rome Tribunal (on December 12, 2019) to reactivate the profile of the extreme right wing political association Casapound - previously closed as a consequence of an alleged violation of fb standards concerning hate speech - can be criticized under international and european law. Such criticisms stem both from the overall picture of the international and european legal standards concerning hate speech (par. 2) and from the relevant case law of the European Court of Human rights (paras. 3 and 4).
Enhancing Bank Transparency: A Re-assessment
2001
Transparency regulation aims at reducing financial fragility by strengthening market discipline. There are however two elementary properties of banking that may render such regulation inefficient at best and detrimental at worst. First, an extensive financial safety net may eliminate the disciplinary effect of transparency regulation. Second, achieving transparency is costly for banks, as it dilutes their charter values, and hence it also reduces their private costs of risk-taking. We consider both the direct costs of complying with disclosure requirements and the indirect transparency costs stemming from imperfect property rights governing information and specify the conditions under which…
