Paradoxes of legal custom
Traducción de Edith Cuautle RodríguezEn este artículo, el autor, inspirándose en la interpretación propuesta por Kripke de algunos pasajes de las Investigaciones Filosóficas de Wittgenstein, discute algunas paradojas en las que, en su opinión, incurren el discurso de la ciencia jurídica y el de la doctrina cuando identifican al usus y a la opinio iuris seu necessitatis como elementos esenciales de la costumbre jurídica.Under the light of Kripke’s interpretation of some paragraphs of Wittgenstein’ s Philosophical Investigations, the author of this paper denounces the paradoxes resulting, in his opinion, when usus and opinio iuris seu necessistatis are considered —as legal science and doctrine do—necessary elements in the identification of legal customs
La costituzione delle differenze. Giusnaturalismo e codificazione del diritto civile nella Prussia del '700
The book goes through the philosophical and theoretical origins of private law codification in Prussia, which ends with the promulgation of the Allgemeines Landrechte für die Preußischen Staaten of 1794. The Prussian codification movement seems to be very interesting from the point of view of historiography: it shows the attempt to conjugate the universality of positive law, as an expression of the unity of the State, with the particularity of the different social-economic characteristics of the German status society at the end XVIIIth century.
First of all the Author analyses the origins of this movement in the practical philosophy of Ch. Wolff, father of the preussisches Neturrecht. Wolff works out a theory of society and civil relationships based on the concept of status: he identifies rights and duties of individuals starting from their particular actions fields within the society, working for common purpose. Wolff’s work underlines, therefore, the persisting in the German XVIIIth century of the influence of Aristotelian social philosophy, throughout the typical mathematic method of modern Jurisprudence. The Author then, analyses the revision of juridical and political Wolffian’s philosophy within his School (Darjes, Nettelblad, Svarez, Klein): here the Aristotelian tradition is joined together with the principles of modern natural Law (Hobbes and Pufendorf), and with the concept of sovereignty: the particularity or the rights and duties, which belongs to every personal status, becomes a product of the sovereign’s will, in which everybody recognises his owns. This assumption opens to a new conception of civil order, in which the universality of law integrates with the particularity of personal conditions. The movement for civil rights carried out by German Enlightment before French Revolution, doesn’t involve the suppression of the ancient status society, but his integration within the administration of the State. Another chapter of the book deals with the transformations of roman law tradition in the XVIIIth century, which gave to the scientia iuris civilis his basic categories. The roman law tradition contributes in particular to create the normative instruments for the realization of this social and political project. In the last chapter the Author analyses the structure of the Allgemeines Landrecht für die Preußischen Staaten of 1794, showing how the principles of Preußisches Naturrecht became normative instruments and the differences between this code and the other European codification experiences
Comparative reasoning in legal adjudication
The paper focuses on the practice of making reference to foreign law in legal adjudication. On the one hand, this practice has received overwhelming attention from legal scholars in the last two decades under the headings of judicial dialogue, judicial cross-fertilization or constitutional conversation; on the other hand, a systematic, theoretical picture of this practice is still lacking. The paper aims to bridge this gap by elucidating the structure of legal comparison in judicial decision-making from the point of view of argumentation theory. To this purpose, the paper examines the various forms of comparative reasoning, identifies the set of their implicit premises and shows under what conditions referring to foreign law in legal adjudication is justified on its own grounds. This analysis will lead us to discuss the thesis according to which comparative reasoning by courts is changing the nature of law and the structure of contemporary legal systems
Il soggetto di diritto secondo Paul Ricoeur
Il saggio mette in luce il contributo di Paul Ricoeur alla riflessione filosofico-giuridica dedicata al soggetto di diritto e alla nozione di diritto soggettivo. In particolare, viene ricostruita la posizione peculiare di Ricoeur all'interno dell'ermeneutica contemporanea e delle teorie narrative dell'identità personale, evidenziando come essa offra spunti per ripensare il modo in cui i giuristi declinano la nozione di soggettività personale
Replica a Rabanos e Velluzzi
This short paper responds to the criticisms of my book "En busca de lo implicito" raised by Julieta Rabanos and Vito Velluzzi
¿El derecho está fundado en la acción colectiva? Comentario al artículo de Carlos Bernal
L'articolo discute la tesi, formulata da Carlos Bernard Pulido, secondo la quale i fenomini giuridici si fonderebbero su una specifica forma di agire collettivo. La discussione prende in considerazione le obbiezioni a questa tesi ricavabili da una discussione critica delle opere di Austin, Hart e Shpiaro; tale analisi conduce a concludere che i fenomeni giuridici hanno proprietà distinte da quelle che caratterizzano le forme tipiche di agire collettivo studiate in ontologia sociale
La tensione verso un diritto giusto tra presente e storia
L'articolo muove da un'analisi critica del volume di H. Hofmann "Introduzione alla filosofia del diritto e della politica" per sviluppare alcune riflessioni sul problema del rapporto tra diritto e giustizia in una prospettiva storico-concettuale
La precomprensione dell’interprete è arbitraria?
“Preunderstanding” is the core of the theoretical framework developed by legal hermeneutics. Legal interpretation is necessary guided by the know-how, the presuppositions and the attitudes of the interpreter. But if this is the case, how can we distinguish between a legitimate and a not legitimate preunderstanding, and also between a good and a bad interpretation? The paper tries to address this question analyzing the structure of preunderstanding from the point of view of both legal hermeneutics and philosophical hermeneutics. The paper argues, in particular, that the preunderstanding of the judge can be treated as legitimate if corresponding to the “real thing” (Sache selbst) regulated by the text. Such a criterion can be articulated methodologically by means of an inferential approach to conceptual content and legal process
Dibattito sulla codificazione e critica neo-illuminista: alcune considerazioni di metodo
Il saggio discute criticamente i saggi di Paolo Becchi raccolti nel volume "Ideologie della codificazione in Germania. Dalla recezione del codice napoleonico alla polemica sulla codificazione". In particolare, viene discusso il ruolo di Savigny nel dibattito sull'opportunità di codificare il diritto privato in Germania ai primi del l'800, la riflessione hegeliana sul tema, e gli aspetti metologici della ricostruzione fornita da Becchi di questo dibattito culturale
