Théorie du Droit Principles of Legal Commoning
In this contribution Ugo Mattei and Alessandra Quarta introduce the notion of commons in the legal debate, underlining the importance of a counter-hegemonic interpretation of many legal categories, such as property and sovereignty, for dealing with the issue of ecological crisis. Commons can contribute to transform extractive property in a generative category, enhancing the role of communities and the self-management of resources.Dans cette contribution Ugo Mattei et Alessandra Quarta introduisent la notion de commons dans le débat juridique, en soulignant l’importance, pour l’approche de la crise écologique, d’une interprétation contra-hégémonique de maintes catégories juridiques, telles que la propriété et la souveraineté. Les commons peuvent contribuer à la transformation de la «propriété extractive » en une «catégorie générative » , améliorant le rôle des communautés et de l’autogestion des ressources.Mattei Ugo, Quarta Alessandra.

The ecology of law ::toward a legal system in tune with nature and community /
"At the root of many of the environmental, economic, and social crises we face today is a legal system based on an outdated worldview. In this groundbreaking book, bestselling author, physicist, and systems theorist Fritjof Capra and distinguished legal scholar Ugo Mattei show how, by incorporating concepts from modern science, the law can become an integral part of bringing about a better world. This is the first book to trace the fascinating parallel history of law and science from antiquity to modern times, showing how the two disciplines have always influenced each other - until recently. In the past few years, the scientific paradigm has shifted dramatically, from seeing the natural world as a kind of cosmic machine to understanding it as a network of fluidly interacting communities. But law is stuck in a mechanistic, seventeenth-century view that the world is made up of discrete individual parts. This has led to legal theory focusing on these parts and ignoring the bigger picture - for example, elevating the rights of individual property owners over the good of the community. But Capra and Mattei outline the basic concepts and structures of a legal order consistent with the ecological principles that sustain life on this planet. This is a profound and visionary reconceptualization of the very foundations of the Western legal system, with profound implications for the future of our planet."--Publisher's website

Musica e dramma nel ‘dramma per musica’: Ines de Castro (1793) di Giuseppe Giordani
This study focuses on the Giordani's Opere Serie, in particular on Ines de Castro which in many respects anticipates the sensitivity of Romanticism. The innovative musical style, the use of choirs and complex multi-sectional arias are typical elements of a new way of writing drammi per musica. The study examines autograph sources
PLUNDER. WHEN THE RULE OF LAW IS ILLEGAL, DE UGO MATTEI AND LAURA NADER
O livro de Ugo Mattei e Laura Nader, intitulado Plunder. When the rule of Law is illegal, pretende
articular duas noções que são apenas aparentemente antagônicas, mas que, na verdade, possuem fortes
laços de dependência. Tratam-se das noções de plunder e de rule of law. Enquanto plunder signifi ca
saque, pilhagem, espoliação; rule of law é traduzível para o português, segundo nossa tradição políticoconstitucional,
por diferentes vocábulos como Estado de Direito, supremacia da lei, princípio da legalidade,
governo das leis. A tese do livro é a de que o uso imperialista da ideia do rule of law está por trás das
atuais práticas “menos-que-ideiais” de justiça distributiva. Isso porque a lei ou o direito têm sido usados
para justifi car, administrar e sancionar a conquista e a pilhagem feitas pelo Ocidente, resultando nas atuais
e persistentes maciças disparidades globais
