Una giustizia più riparativa. Mediazione e riparazione in matria penale
Il
libro prende in esame la poliedrica concezione della restorative
justice o giustizia riparativa per descriverne lo sviluppo e
comprenderne le potenzialità evolutive in seno ai sistemi di giustizia
punitiva.Questa particolare prospettiva è chiamata ad integrare il
modello tradizionale con nuovi strumenti, progressivamente sempre più
formalizzati.L'indagine è condotta a partire dalle istanze che sono
sottese alla giustizia riparativa, per poi affrontare il panorama
normativo sovranazionale ed europeo. Nell'ambito della realtà giuridica
italiana lo studio si concentra sul sistema del giudice di pace e si
estende quindi agli istituti generali di più recente introduzione che in
qualche misura consentono di promuovere esiti e processi
riparativi.L'orizzonte di una giustizia penale che, con le dovute
cautele, si riappropria di alcuni modelli informali cresciuti al suo
esterno e che mira ad essere più riparativa, valorizzando la mediazione
penale e la riparazione, è affrontato da tre diversi punti di vista tra
loro convergenti, quelli della vittima, del reo e dell'efficienza del
sistema.

La funzione simbolica nel diritto penale del bene giuridico
Premessa
sul piano metodologico la duplice opportunità di una dottrina più
orientata al dialogo con gli altri formanti (legislazione,
giurisprudenza, e anche massmedia), e più capace di autocritica, il
libro ha l'ambizione di mettere a fuoco il concetto di legislazione
simbolica articolandosi in una pars destruens, che continua in ogni caso
a meritare il maggiore spazio, e in una pars costruens, verosimilmente
bisognosa di tematizzazione.

La giustizia vendicatoria
Fenomeno
criminale, forma di giustizia primitiva e selvaggia, obbligo morale,
meccanismo di composizione dei conflitti, sistema. Nel corso della
storia, e da diverse angolazioni, la vendetta è stata definita e
interpretata in molti modi. Il presente volume "La giustizia
vendicatoria" raccoglie tredici contributi sulla vendetta presentando,
in una prospettiva interdisciplinare, studi di autori classici e
ricerche contemporanee. L'antologia si articola in due sezioni. La
prima, intitolata "Vendetta, composizione, reciprocità", raccoglie sei
studi, pubblicati tra il 1881 e il 1970, che affrontano i nodi teorici
fondamentali nello studio della vendetta. La seconda, intitolata
"Vendetta in azione. Teorie e ricerche contemporanee", raccoglie sette
contributi inediti di studiosi contemporanei che indagano il tema della
vendetta nella prospettiva dell'antropologia culturale e giuridica,
della filosofia del diritto, della criminologia, della storia dei
diritti antichi.

Justification and Excuse in International Law: Concept and Theory of General Defences
 |
| Anteprima |
The
defences available to an agent accused of wrongdoing can be considered
as justifications (which render acts lawful) or excuses (which shield
the agent from the legal consequences of the wrongful act). This
distinction is familiar to many domestic legal systems, and tracks
analogous notions in moral philosophy and ordinary language.
Nevertheless, it remains contested in some domestic jurisdictions where
it is often argued that the distinction is purely theoretical and has no
consequences in practice. In international law too the distinction has
been fraught with controversy, though there are increasing calls for its
recognition. This book is the first to comprehensively and thoroughly
examine the distinction and its relevance to the international legal
order. Combining an analysis of State practice, historical, doctrinal
and theoretical developments, the book shows that the distinction is not
only possible in international law but that it is also one that would
have important practical implications.

The Use of Force and International Law
 |
| Anteprima |
The
Use of Force and International Law offers an authoritative overview of
international law governing the resort to force. Looking through the
prism of the contemporary challenges that this area of international law
faces, including technology, sovereignty, actors, compliance and
enforcement, this book addresses key aspects of international law in
this area: the general breadth and scope of the prohibition of force,
what is meant by 'force', the use of force through the UN and regional
organisations, the use of force in peacekeeping operations, the right of
self-defence and the customary limitations upon this right, forcible
intervention in civil conflicts, the controversial doctrine of
humanitarian intervention. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and
postgraduate students, academics and practitioners, The Use of Force and
International Law offers a contemporary, comprehensive and accessible
treatment of the subject.

European Criminal Law
 |
| Anteprima |
Since
their creation, the European Union and the Council of Europe have
worked to harmonise the justice systems of their member states. This
project has been met with a series of challenges. European Criminal Law
offers a compelling insight into the development and functions of
European criminal law. It tracks the historical development of European
criminal law, offering a detailed critical analysis of the criminal
justice systems responsible for its implementation. While the rapid
expansion and transnationalisation of criminal law is a necessary
response to the growing numbers of free movement of persons and goods,
it has serious implications for the rights of European citizens and
needs to be balanced with rights protections. With its close analysis of
secondary legislation and reliance on a wide variety of original
sources, this book provides a thorough understanding of European
Criminal Law and the institutions involved.

European Contract Law and the Charter of Fundamental Rights
This
is the first comprehensive analysis of the extent to which the Charter
of Fundamental Rights of the European Union will influence the
development of contract and commercial law at a European level. The
essays in this volume examine how the Court of Justice has already used
the Charter to steer the law governing consumer transactions, financial
contracts, contracts of employment, self-employment, tenancies, and
other contractual arrangements. Included essays assess the likely future
impact of the Charter on EU contract law, using a variety of legal,
historical, and theoretical perspectives. These original assessments by
distinguished scholars range from claims that the Charter will only have
a mild indirect influence to arguments that the Charter provides the
necessary legal foundations for EU contract law and for a market society
within a multi-level system of governance. Questions are raised about
the scope of application of the Charter; its indirect but significant
effect on national legal systems, especially in improving the
effectiveness of EU law; and whether the rights and principles of the
Charter may sometimes have direct effect on contracts by leading a court
to disapply national law. (Series: European Contract Law and Theory,
Vol. 2) [Subject: European Law, Contract Law, Commercial Law]

The Corporation: A Critical, Multi-Disciplinary Handbook
 |
| Anteprima |
The
corporation has become an increasingly dominant force in contemporary
society. However, comprehensive, in-depth analysis of the concept of the
corporation is often restricted, or limited to one disciplinary
approach. This handbook brings together the cutting-edge scholarship,
expertise and insight of leading scholars in a wide range of
disciplines, notably management studies, law, history, political
science, anthropology, sociology and criminology, using a critical
approach to dissect and understand the corporation. Ten chapters provide
overviews of the state of play of critical scholarship on the
corporation in each of these disciplines. Further contributors tackle
current hot topics, such as corporate social responsibility, corporate
crime, global value chains, financialization, and the interaction
between corporations and communities. Finally, they consider resistance
and alternatives to the corporation. With its interdisciplinary
approach, this book is an invaluable resource for all readers studying
the past, present and future of the corporation.

The Transformation of Europe: Twenty-Five Years On
Joseph
Weiler's The Transformation of Europe is one of the most influential
works in the history of European studies. Twenty-five years after its
original publication, this new collection of essays pays tribute to
Weiler's legacy by discussing some of the most pressing issues in
contemporary European Union law, policy and constitutionalism. The book
does not intend to be a simple expression of intellectual esteem for
Weiler's seminal work; instead, the collection honours it by critically
engaging with some of its assumptions and theses. Overall, it shows how a
study of 1991 can still be fundamental to the present and future of the
EU, including the challenges of Brexit and Eurozone crises.

Sustainable Development, Global Trade and Social Rights
About this book:
Sustainable Development, Global Trade and
Social Rights is aimed at analyzing the most updated aspects of linkage
between global trade and social rights. There are two different but
converging underlying reasons that forge a linkage between promoting
social rights and market regulation: one that seeks to act against
distorted competition based on social dumping, which ultimately modifies
the best allocation of resources on a global scale; the other refers to
the planning of an axiologically oriented global order, designed to
redress the unwelcomed social consequences of globalization. Three major
fields of international law - trade, the environment and human rights -
have become inextricably intertwined in today's world. A practitioner,
policymaker, businessperson, or academic involved in any one of these
fields must now be conversant with the other two. The historic link
between fundamental social rights and market regulation has proved to be
a major topic in the current context of economic globalization, whose
trade expansion is a fundamental component along with renewed impetus
towards economic regionalism and free trade agreement, including labor
provisions. An analysis of MERCOSUR offers a revealing insight into the
differences between trade agreements concluded among developing
countries and those concluded among developed countries.
What's in this book:
This
groundbreaking book considers the crucial elements of this complex
engagement, with eleven authoritative discussions by some of the most
important and widely renowned professors of labor, commercial, and
international law and experts from the International Labour Organization
and the International Society for Labour and Social Security Law.
Focusing primarily on the "social pillar" of sustainability, the authors
cover such critical issues as the following:
- the "creeping de-globalization" manifested by Brexit and US protectionist policies;
- new and renegotiated multilateral "mega" treaties;
- prospects for effectively codifying social responsibilities of multinational corporations;
- nexus of economic comparative advantage and excessive exploitation of natural resources;
- weak (or non-existent) enforcement of labor clauses in trade agreements;
- assessing and managing environmental and social risk in project finance; and
- stabilization clauses in state-investor agreements.
How this will help you:
A
much-needed probing of the future of global trade in the light of a
resurgence of economic nationalisms, this book takes a giant step
towards a new consensus and cohesion phase in the international
community where development policies, international business
transactions, and social and environmental sustainability coexist
harmoniously. It will be welcomed by practitioners, academics, and
researchers in trade law, environmental law, and labor law, as well as
by policymakers and businesspersons concerned with how these legal
fields interact with economic justice.

The Prevention Principle in International Environmental Law
 |
| Anteprima |
Prevention
is recognized as a cornerstone of international environmental law, but
this principle remains abstract and elusive in terms of exactly what is
required of states to prevent environmental harm. In this illuminating
work, Leslie-Anne Duvic-Paoli addresses this issue by offering a
systematic, comprehensive assessment in which she clarifies the
rationale, content, and scope of the prevention principle while also
placing it in a wider legal context. The book offers a detailed analysis
of treaty law, custom codification works, and case law before
culminating in a conceptualization of prevention based on three
definitional traits: 1. Its anticipatory rationale; 2. Its due diligence
content; and 3. Its wide spatial scope to protect the environment as a
whole. This book should be read by anyone seeking to understand the
evolving principle of prevention in international environmental law, and
how it increasingly shares common ground with reparation in the arena
of compliance control.

The Human Right to a Healthy Environment
 |
| Anteprima |
The
absence of a globally recognized right to a healthy environment has not
prevented the development of human rights norms relating to the
environment. Indeed, one of the most noteworthy aspects of human rights
law over the last twenty years is that UN treaty bodies, regional
tribunals, special rapporteurs, and other human rights mechanisms have
applied human rights law to environmental issues even without a
stand-alone, justiciable human right to a healthy environment. In The
Human Right to a Healthy Environment, a diverse set of scholars and
practitioners, all of whom have been instrumental in defining the
relationship between human rights and the environment, provide their
thoughts on what is, or should be, the role of an international human
right to a healthy environment. The right to a healthy environment could
be a capstone to this field of law, could help to provide structure to
it, or could move it in new directions.
