Commentari del codice civile. Storia, struttura e funzioni
No full textThe aim of the contribution is to outline the history, the structure and the functions of legal commentaries in the Italian tradition. After a historical introduction, which takes into consideration the relationships between the Italian, the French and the German scholarships, the author exposes the main characteristics of the different types of legal commentaries. The structure and the style of the main publications are put under scrutiny and compared to other literary genres, namely treaties and encyclopedias. The essay tries then to indicate the current “value” of legal commentaries for doctrinal and practice-oriented research purposes. Finally, it discusses the future of the literary genre and its possible implementation in online databases

Unfair terms control in business-to-business contracts
Full text linkThe aim of the paper is to outline the regulation of one-sided (or onerous) standard terms in business-to-business contracts according to Italian law, in the light of the specific legislative rules and existent case law. Differently than other European legal systems, Italian law does not provide for a substantive control of unfair standard terms in business-to-business contracts. After the implementation of the European Directive no 93/13, the scope of the substantive judicial review covers only unfair terms in business-to-consumer contracts. Italian scholars often discussed the extension of the scope of application of consumer law to business-to-business contracts, but the legislature never addressed the issue. The Italian Civil Code of 1942 represented a forerunner in providing rules for the incorporation of standard terms in contracts, that are applicable to every kind of contractual relationship between businesses. At the present stage, such rules do not protect adhering parties in an effective way and give rise to many disputes. In some cases, the need of protection of weaker businesses induced Italian courts to develop judge-made law based on open-ended clauses, such as good faith. In other cases, Italian judges adopted the parameter of the worthiness of protection or the causa doctrine, to affirm the invalidity of harsh contractual terms. Further limitations of contractual freedom are the so-called ‘abuse of economic dependence’ and rules devoted to certain contractual terms, which are often standardized in business-to-business contracts (exclusions or limitations of liability and time constraints for the exercise of a right). After sketching the comparative law background with reference to German and French law, the article offers a comprehensive account of the aforementioned elements. The examination leads the author to affirm that Italian law entails an indirect control of unfair terms in business-to-business contracts. In the final part, its relevance is evaluated in the international context

Collegamento negoziale e obbligo di rinegoziazione

Risoluzione per inadempimento anteriore alla scadenza del termine
No full textSecondo una recente pronuncia della Suprema Corte, ai fini della risoluzione del contratto, l’inadempimento dell’obbligazione può anche essere anticipato rispetto alla scadenza prevista per l’adempimento, nei casi in cui il debitore, in violazione dell’obbligo di buona fede e di lealtà nell’esecuzione del contratto, tenga un comportamento tale da rendere antieconomica o impossibile la prosecuzione del rapporto. I presupposti applicativi dell’istituto, così come individuati dai giudici di legittimità, non coincidono del tutto con quelli ricavabili dalle norme internazionali e dei progetti di armonizzazione del diritto dei contratti, le quali pongono l’accento su un giudizio prognostico relativamente alla possibilità che il contraente adempia nel rispetto delle condizioni stabilite dal contratto
Riconoscimento del figlio e gestazione per altri
No full textLa Corte costituzionale è stata chiamata a pronunciarsi sulla legittimità dell’art. 263 c.c., nella parte in cui non prevede che l’impugnazione del riconoscimento del figlio minore per difetto di veridicità possa essere accolta solo quando sia rispondente all’interesse dello stesso. Sulla base di un’esaustiva ricognizione delle fonti interne ed internazionali, la Corte afferma l’infondatezza della questione, osservando che l’accertamento della verità biologica e genetica dell’individuo non costituisce un valore di rilevanza costituzionale assoluta, essendo in ogni caso necessario tenere conto dell’interesse del minore. In questo quadro, residua il problema del bilanciamento degli interessi coinvolti in ipotesi di maternità surrogata, che veniva in considerazione nel caso dal quale traeva origine la questione di legittimità. La sentenza se ne occupa brevemente nella parte conclusiva e offre una lettura del dato normativo potenzialmente pregiudizievole per l’interesse del minore
Buon costume e scopo della norma violata: sull'ambito di applicazione dell'art. 2035 c.c.
No full textStarting from a judgement of the Court of Cassation, the contribution focuses on some problematic aspects related to the soluti retentio governed by art. 2035 of the Italian Civil Code. In the frequent cases in which the contract is, at the same time, contrary to mandatory rules and immoral, the general clause of good morals (buon costume) seems to be overwhelmed by considerations of a juridical nature able to explain the function of the institute and its scope of application. The main point of reference is the purpose of the mandatory rule infringed by the contracting parties, which the denial of restitution can help to achieve
