    Intelligenza Artificiale e trattamento dei dati tra diritto internazionale e ordinamenti interni

    No full text
    This article examines the legal implications of using both personal and non-personal data in the training of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, focusing in particular on the role of international law and its interaction with domestic legal systems. While legal frameworks have traditionally centred on the protection of personal data, the author highlights the inadequacy of this paradigm in the context of machine learning, which primarily relies on non-personal data and inferential techniques targeting indistinct groups of individuals. The article stresses the growing need to recognize collective forms of protection, moving beyond the individual-centric approach of data regulation. After surveying recent unilateral regulatory developments – especially in the European Union, the United States, China, Japan, and Canada – as well as multilateral initiatives promoted by the United Nations, G7, and the Council of Europe, the author underscores the importance of interpretive strategies and the principle of technological neutrality. These tools are seen as essential for adapting existing legal categories to the new challenges posed by AI. The central thesis is that specific new rules are not always required; rather, a dynamic and technologically agnostic application of existing legal frameworks may suffice

    The loss of legitimacy of international economic disputes settlement systems in the context of the “crisis” of international organizations The paper aims at framing the legal mechanisms that underlie the current crisis of legitimacy of international economic disputes settlement systems in the context of the broader crisis of international organizations, caused, among other factors, by the reemergence of nationalism. To this end, the author analyses the stall of the World Trade Organization Appellate Body; the jurisdiction of the EU Court of Justice as one of the factors of Brexit; some features of the Court of the South African Development Community; the South American crisis of the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes; the mechanisms provided by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement; the Court of the Economic Community of West African States and the East African Court of Justice. Then he proceeds to analyse some elements that counter runs the previous ones, such as the dispute settlement system of the Trans-Pacific-Partnership and the Investment Court System of the European Union, before drawing his conclusions

A Little Hate, Worldwide! On Freedom of Opinion and On-Line Political Hate Speech in International and European Law This paper aims at framing, with particular regard to its on-line occurrence and especially on social networks, the phenomenon of hate speech and the related issue of fake news in the context of international and European law obligations that affect both States and private operators. The pandemic of COIVD-19 has seen the spread of fake news on the origin of the virus, on the mechanisms of spread of the infection, on the responsibilities of some States in its spread; such news have given rise to episodes of hatred. The Author opens reviewing the international rules on freedom of opinion and expression, and then studies the regulation of the activity of providers and suppliers of online services in the context of the obligations imposed on States regarding the control of respect for rights human by information and communications technology companies. The latter aspect highlights the importance that private corporations – and, in particular, social networks as Facebook, which is nowadays drafting its internal review mechanism, the Oversight Board, which is analysed as a case study – have regarding the enforcement of these obligations. In the end, the issue is framed in what, in the Author’s opinion, is a more general trend of the international legal order. Keywords: international law; European law; social networks; hate speech; fake news; Facebook Oversight Boar

    L’articolo analizza il ruolo della cooperazione tra Stati nell’ordinamento internazionale contemporaneo, con particolare attenzione alla progressiva “procedimentalizzazione” di alcuni obblighi. Dopo aver richiamato esempi recenti di controversie internazionali, l’autore esamina il concetto di cooperazione nel diritto internazionale, distinguendolo da nozioni affini come l’interdipendenza. Viene ricostruita l’evoluzione del principio di cooperazione all’interno della Carta delle Nazioni Unite, dell’Atto finale di Helsinki e di altri strumenti giuridici, evidenziandone la natura prevalentemente procedurale, fondata sugli obblighi di informazione, consultazione e negoziazione. L’articolo sottolinea inoltre il legame con il principio di buona fede e con la due diligence, mostrando come in vari regimi internazionali (dall’ambiente al commercio, fino ai global commons) si assista a una sostituzione o integrazione delle norme sostanziali con obblighi procedurali. Tale tendenza alla “procedimentalizzazione”, presente anche nell’ordinamento dell’Unione europea, contribuisce a rafforzare la cooperazione interstatale attraverso meccanismi verificabili e condivisi.Cooperation between States and the progressive “proceduralisation” of certain international obligations The paper analyses the role of cooperation between States in the contemporary international legal order, with particular attention to the progressive “proceduralisation” of certain obligations. After referencing recent examples of international disputes, the author examines the concept of cooperation in international law, distinguishing it from related notions such as interdependence. The evolution of the principle of cooperation is reconstructed through the United Nations Charter, the Helsinki Final Act, and other legal instruments, highlighting its predominantly procedural nature, based on obligations of information, consultation, and negotiation. The article also emphasises the connection with the principles of good faith and due diligence, showing how in various international regimes – from environmental protection to trade and even the global commons – substantive rules are increasingly being replaced or complemented by procedural obligations. This trend toward “proceduralisation”, also present in the legal system of the European Union, contributes to strengthening interstate cooperation through verifiable and shared mechanism

    Yesterday everything was going too fast: about the effects of Brexit on the international agreements of the European union. This paper aims at clarifying the impact produced by the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union on the effects of the international agreements already signed by the latter.

It concludes with an analysis of the pertaining provisions contained in the Draft Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community of march 2018
