La Dichiarazione universale dei diritti umani nella prassi della Commissione africana e nella giurisprudenza della Corte africana dei diritti umani e dei popoli
No full textThe Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the Practice of the African Commission and in the Case Law of the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights. – This chapter contributes to the debate between universalism and cultural relativism in international human rights law. In particular, it shows the predominance of cultural relativism in the African Human Rights System. In order to reach such outcome, the chapter assesses the scarce significance of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights – that is the main symbol of the universalist approach to international human rights law – in the African Human Rights System. First, the Universal Declaration is barely considered in the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights, protecting (on the contrary) the African cultural traditions, sometimes even to the detriment of certain “universal” human rights. Second, the Universal Declaration has a marginal position in the practice of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights, notwithstanding the relevant reference in Art. 60 of the African Charter concerning
the law from which the Commission shall draw inspiration. Third, the Universal Declaration has a very limited role also in the case law of the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, although the Court has a broad ratione materiae competence and claimants report very often about alleged violations of the Universal Declaration by States. In a nutshell, it is submitted that the cultural relativism of the African Charter has remained unchallenged,
and has been even enhanced in the practice of the African Commission and in the case law of the African Court, where the Universal Declaration has thus found little space
Sull'obbligo degli Stati di registrare gli accordi internazionali presso il segretariato generale delle Nazioni Unite: il caso Jadhav
No full textThis paper discusses the Jadhav case submitted to the ICJ by India against Pakistan on 8 May 2017. The case concerns the alleged violation of the 1963 Vienna Convention on Consular Relations with regard to the detention and trial of an Indian national who was sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court. Pakistan claimed to have applied the 2008 bilateral Agreement on Consular Access, providing that “in case of arrest, detention or sentence made on political or security grounds, each side may examine the case on its merits”. Nonetheless, according to India, the bilateral Agreement cannot be invoked before the ICJ, as it was not promptly registered with the UN Secretariat, inconsistently with Article 102 of the UN Charter. The author does not share such a formalistic interpretation of Article 102. This provision aims at discouraging secret treaties. Since the bilateral Agreement has never been secret, it could be invoked before the ICJ regardless of its registration. Hence, it was not necessary for Pakistan to register the bilateral Agreement after India had instituted proceedings before the ICJ
Second Order Regularity for a Linear Elliptic System Having BMO Coefficients
No full textWe consider linear elliptic systems whose prototype is
divΛ[exp(−|x|)−log|x|]IDu=divF+g inB.
(0.1)
Here B denotes the unit ball of Rn
, for n>2
, centered in the origin, I is the identity matrix, F is a matrix in W1,2(B,Rn×n)
, g is a vector in L2(B,Rn)
and Λ
is a positive constant. Our result reads that the gradient of the solution u∈W1,20(B,Rn)
to Dirichlet problem for system (0.1) is weakly differentiable provided the constant Λ
is not large enough
La tutela dei diritti umani in Africa: origini, istituzione e attività della Corte africana dei diritti dell’uomo e dei popoli
No full textThe Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the establishment of the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, adopted in Ouagadougou in 1998, came into force in 2004 representing an important step forward for Africa. This article examines the origins of the African Court, highlighting the different factors that up to the 1990s had prevented, and then later allowed, the creation of such a Court. The social, historical and political background provided in this article, shows how hard it was to establish the first African court for human rights. The organization and the composition of the African Court are described according to similarities and differences with the European and the Inter-American Courts on Human Rights. Particular attention is given to the new rule on the exclusion of a judge who is citizen of a State in dispute before the Court. The very broad advisory jurisdiction of the African Court is examined in comparison with those of other regional Human Rights jurisdictions. Furthermore, this article highlights how contentious the jurisdiction of the Court is. This is examined in relation to two questions: subject matter jurisdiction and personal jurisdiction. Particular emphasis is given to the role of individuals and NGOs, which can bring cases directly before the Court only if the State concerned has made a declaration accepting the competence of the Court in this regard. The activities undertaken so far by the African Court are described in the last paragraph. After a brief mention of the first case dealt with by the Court, the author focuses on the Libyan affair. The order for provisional measures adopted in March 2011 is examined and developments regarding the Libyan case are investigated, bearing in mind the great changes that have taken place in Tripoli in the meantime
Existence and nonexistence of minimizers for classical capillarity problems in presence of nonlocal repulsion and gravity
No full textWe investigate, under a volume constraint and among sets contained in a Euclidean half-space, the minimization problem of an energy functional given by the sum of a capillarity perimeter, a nonlocal interaction term and a gravitational potential energy. The capillarity perimeter assigns a constant weight to the portion of the boundary touching the boundary of the half-space. The nonlocal term is represented by a double integral of a positive kernel g, while the gravitational term is represented by the integral of a positive potential G. We first establish existence of volume-constrained minimizers in the small mass regime, together with several qualitative properties of minimizers. The existence result holds for rather general choices of kernels in the nonlocal interaction term, including attractive–repulsive ones. When the nonlocal kernel g(x)=1/|x|β with β∈(0,2], we also obtain nonexistence of volume constrained minimizers in the large mass regime. Finally, we prove a generalized existence result of minimizers holding for all masses and general nonlocal interaction terms, meaning that the infimum of the problem is realized by a finite disjoint union of sets thought located at “infinite distance” one from the other. These results stem from an application of quantitative isoperimetric inequalities for the capillarity problem in a half-space
International Protection of Human Rights in Africa, Asia and the Middle East
No full textIn this special Section of Diritti umani e diritto internazionale, Konstantin D. Magliveras focuses on the protection of human rights in the Middle East. In particular, he outlines the effects of the ‘Arab Spring’ in augmenting the standard of human rights in the Middle East, with an insightful reference to the expected institution of the Arab Court of Human Rights. In his essay, Konstantin D. Magliveras does not forget the role of Islam as the predominant religion in the Arab States and the 1990 Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam. Yota Negishi examines the protection of human rights in Asia. He goes beyond the typical question of whether a future Asian Human Rights System is possible, more concretely wondering whether the current Asian cooperation on human rights is appropriate. Yota Negishi applies a ‘Foucauldian methodology’ to emphasise the ‘bio-politics’ of human rights, which have been utilised by Asian States to reconcile their traditional developmentalist or socialist mindset with global neoliberal policies. I deal with the African Human Rights System. I underline the great number of monitoring bodies, both continental and sub-regional, which are competent for human rights disputes arisen in the legal frame drawn by the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights. In particular, I inquire into the effective need to regulate the coexistence of these many bodies, taking into due account the general phenomenon of proliferation of international tribunals
