Le Reti Transeuropee quale strumento della coesione economica e sociale nell’ambito della Politica Euromediterranea
Il principio del ne bis in idem nell’art. 50 della Carta dei Diritti fondamentali UE e nella recente giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia
L’articolo si propone di evidenziare come a più di vent’anni dal Consiglio
europeo di Tampere ed a più di dieci anni dal riconoscimento della forza giuridica
vincolante alla CDFUE, uno dei principali traguardi del processo di integrazione
europea nell’era post-Lisbona, è rappresentato dalla disciplina del principio del ne
bis in idem di cui all’art. 50 CDFUE, ovverosia del diritto a non essere giudicato o
punito due volte per lo stesso reato. Il contributo evidenzia come, dall’esame della
più recente giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia (sentenze Menci, Garlsson Real
Estate e Di Puma e Consob) è emerso il rilievo sempre più multilevel (internazionale,
europeo ed interno) assunto in progresso di tempo dal divieto di bis in idem
trattandosi di un ambito in cui spesso si assiste all’attività di costante cross fertilization
tra le differenti autorità giurisdizionali (Corti costituzionali e giudici
nazionali, Corte di Giustizia dell’Unione europea e Corte europea dei diritti
dell’uomo), operanti nello spazio giuridico europeo.The article aims to show how, more than twenty years after the Tampere European Council and more than ten years after recognition of the binding legal force of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, one of the main achievements of the European integration process is represented by the discipline of the ne bis in idem principle of art. 50 UECFR, that is the right not to be tried or punished twice for the same crime. The contribution highlights how, from the examination of the most recent jurisprudence of the Court of Justice (judgments Menci, Garlsson Real Estate and Di Puma and Consob) emerged the increasingly multi-level importance (international, European and domestic) taken over time by the prohibition of bis in idem. It is, in fact, an area in which we often see the activity of constant cross-fertilization between the different judicial authorities (Constitutional Courts and national judges, Court of Justice of the European Union and European Court of Human Rights), operating in the European legal area
The Humanitarian Principle of Punishment and the Protection of Prisoners within the European Legal Space
This publication highlights the importance of the ECtHR acquis to foster the consolidation of the European Area of Justice, mainly based on judicial cooperation in criminal matters and it underscores the practical implications and obligations for EU policy-makers who wish to harmonize measures to approximate the law of EU Member State and achieve a higher level of mutual trust between national authorities
La tutela delle minoranze: i principi ispiratori della Risoluzione del Parlamento europeo del 13 novembre 2018
This article analyses the evolution of European Union law on the protection of minorities.
It starts by differentiating the principles of “non-assimilation” and of “equality and nondiscrimination”, and then highlights the specific characteristics of European Union law also
through a summary examination of the systems adopted by the League of Nations, the
United Nations, the Council of Europe and the OSCE. In assessing EU legal development,
the recent Resolution of the European Parliament on Minimum standards for minorities in the
EU is reviewed. Through this resolution, the Parliament sought to send a warning to the
other European institutions, in particular to the Commission, and to push for adoption of a
series of “special protection measures” for minorities, almost appearing to emphasise the
insufficient level of protection currently given to minority groups within the European legal
are
Coesione territoriale e principio di insularità nell'ordinamento dell'Unione europea
The present paper aims to examine the relationship between the EU policy of economic, social and territorial cohesion and the principle of insularity before and after Lisbon Treaty. In this context the public service obligations (PSO) meet the need to find a balance between a general liberalization and a policy that tends to ensure compatibility with the European treaties of the aids which are granted to ensure the conduct of services general economic interest. Starting from a critical analysis of the Altmark case law, this paper highlights that even today the principles – although not always consistently applied – provided by the Treaties in this matter, are not fully sufficient in order to ensure at the insular regions the territorial continuity they deserve
Dignità umana e tutela dei detenuti nello “Spazio di giustizia” dell’Unione europea
The article aims to show how, more than twenty years after the Tampere
European Council and more than ten years after the recognition of the binding legal
force of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the goal of a
European area of (Freedom, Security and) Justice is still a work in progress. In fact,
this is an objective that can only be fully achieved by overcoming certain critical
issues that still persist and hamper its full implementation. In this context, the article
examines the often-conflicting relationship between prison treatment and detention
conditions on the one hand and the protection of the rights and human dignity of
prisoners on the other. Through an examination of European jurisprudence
(especially of the ECJ and only indirectly – if invoked – of the ECHR), the article
shows how the situation of impasse in which Italy (amongst others EU States) has
found itself for years in dealing with the problem of prison overcrowding, could
perhaps be addressed by co-ordinated action from the Council of Europe and the
European Union
La cittadinanza sociale europea: un percorso incompiuto
The article deals with changes taking place in the European integration process, with particular reference to European citizenship. On the one hand, the paper examines contradictions in the original definition of the status of European citizen. On the other, new limitations impacting on rights to free movement are considered in the context of serious economic and financial problems which have combined with strong anti-European forces to create fears about loss of sovereignty on the part of some EU member states. Particular emphasis is given to the real risk of a major legal and political de-legitimisation of European citizenship, driven both by challenges to the right to freedom of movement which derives from that citizenship, and from a nationalist drift within European society. This drift is characterised today by a distinction, as clear as it is unjustified, between “dynamic” European citizens (so-called “movers”) and those who are considered “static”
