What Human Rights are not (Or not Only). A Negative Path to Human Rights Practice
2014
What human rights are not (or not only) could offer an inclusive and intersectional approach able to get together the different dimensions (moral, legal, social ones) of the international and domestic practice of protecting individuals against violations and discriminations. The book aims at offering an overview of the current phase of the protection of rights, its relationships with and differences from natural rights and liberal rights of the Western tradition, an approach to their content and their possible uses in the domestic and international domain.
Introduction: Security, Criminal Justice and Human Rights in Countering Terrorism in the Post 9/11 Era
2012
In the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington, many commentators claimed that the world had changed ‘forever’ with international terrorism constituting one of the defining global security challenges of the twenty-first century. The renewed focus on counter-terrorism law and policy also called into question whether the lessons drawn from previous terrorism emergencies are pertinent to the post-9/11 environment. Indeed, to what extent, if at all, are the principles identified for the liberal democratic response to traditional forms of terrorism applicable to a response to contemporary international terrorism? The historical, political and security implications of 9/11 notwit…

French firms’ strategies for protecting their intellectual property
2012
In attempting to protect their innovations, firms can choose from a range of mechanisms, which may be either non-statutory (trade secrets, design complexity, and lead-time advantage over competitors) or statutory (patent, design registration, trademark, copyright). Yet, little is known about how firms do actually make their choices from among these different appropriability mechanisms. The aim of this paper is to determine how French firms’ use of intellectual property protection mechanisms relates to the type of innovation, the characteristics of the market sector in which they operate, the firms’ characteristics, and their human resources strategies. Our empirical model draws on four Fren…

Drivers influencing the governance of inter-firm relationships in the biopharmaceutical industry: an empirical survey in the Italian context
2013
This paper focuses on factors influencing the choice of the governance form in inter-firm relationships (IFRs) between pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. By reviewing the relevant literature on transaction cost economics, property right theory, real option and resources-based view, we located some drivers that might influence such relationships and we formulated a set of hypotheses linking them to governance forms. Such a theoretical framework has been empirically tested through a survey conducted among the Italian companies associated to Farmindustria. Empirical results provide some interesting insights on how shaping bio-pharmaceutical deals; we found that the developmental stage…
When a virus (Covid-19) attacks human rights: The situation of asylum seekers in the medico-legal setting
2020
The Covid-19 pandemic is a global health emergency that requires immediate, effective action by governments to protect the health and basic human rights of everyone’s life. Refugees and migrants are potentially at increased risk because they typically live in overcrowded conditions often without access to basic sanitation. Since the beginning of the official lockdown for Covid-19, the medico-legal assessment of physical violence related to obtaining status or other forms of human protection has been frozen.
Nuevo criterio interpretativo de los derechos fundamentales conforme a los tratados internacionales de derechos humanos en la Constitución Española
2011
RESUMEN. En las siguientes líneas se pretende argumentar a la luz del ordenamiento jurídico español la existencia de razones jurídicas (válidas y suficientes) para catalogar como “criterio interpretativo de los Derechos Fundamentales” a los Tratados Internacionales de Derechos Humanos, aportando cuatro tipos de argumentos: El primero, se deduce de la naturaleza jurídica de los tratados como fuentes del Derecho Internacional y como obligaciones internacionales para el Estado. El segundo, deriva de la incorporación automática de los Tratados al Derecho interno consolidándose como parte del ordenamiento jurídico. El tercero, es la pauta interpretativa que cuenta con respaldo constitucional en …
Migrazioni forzate e diritti disattesi. Lo sguardo di genere sui bisogni di frontiera
2021
La definizione di “tratta di esseri umani”, adottata dal Protocollo delle Nazioni Unite, descrive gli elementi che identificano un fenomeno rilevato su scala mondiale che occupa i primissimi posti delle classifiche relative ai crimini internazionali per la diffusione e la numerosità di casi. Esso prevede l’induzione forzata a varie forme di sfruttamento e, fra queste, un posto di rilievo occupa quello relativo allo sfruttamento a scopo prostitutivo. Malgrado accordi europei e leggi nazionali convergano sul piano giuridico, allo stato attuale, la condizione di “vittima di tratta” fatica ad essere riconosciuta come tale da un sistema di protezione e accoglienza che in Europa evidenzia procedu…
El camino de Turquía hacia la Unión Europea: Aspectos de la reforma del derecho penal turco como requisito para su incorporación a la UE.
2011
RESUMEN Debido a la pretensión de Turquía por incorporarse a la Unión Europea es imperativo que verifique un cumplimiento efectivo las condiciones que establece la misma al respecto en los llamados Criterios de Copenhague. En lo que a la protección de los derechos humanos se refiere, la modificación del Derecho Penal turco deviene una de las tareas clave debido a que la protección de los bienes jurídicos fundamentales, cometido de tal disciplina, está intrínsecamente ligada con el amparo de los derechos humanos. Por ello se ha realizado un estudio de los principios generales del Derecho Penal en el sistema turco, por ser la base de tal Derecho y los límites de la potestad sancionadora del E…
