Book Diritto alla sicurezza e sicurezza dei diritti  un ossimoro invincibile

Download or read book Diritto alla sicurezza e sicurezza dei diritti un ossimoro invincibile written by Risicato, Lucia and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gli interventi legislativi degli ultimi decenni evidenziano la tendenza a un uso strumentale, simbolico e pletorico della materia penale: la sensazione netta, sotto questo punto di vista, è quella di un diritto penale "militarizzato", fondato cioè sull'esigenza di rendere inoffensive categorie di soggetti socialmente pericolosi (il recidivo, il clandestino, il terrorista), con conseguente crisi dei principi di legalità, materialità e colpevolezza. Il medium che rende possibile questa trasfigurazione è il concetto di sicurezza, inteso come discutibile bene giuridico alla cui stregua arretrare la soglia dell'incriminazione sino a sovrapporre la prevenzione del danno da reato con quella collegata alla neutralizzazione preventiva del presunto criminale. Da condizione necessaria per l'esercizio dei diritti, la sicurezza è assurta essa stessa a diritto, diventando strumento di ampliamento del controllo penale – ispirato da sapienti strategie politico-mediatiche di manipolazione della paura – e d'indebita limitazione dei diritti individuali. Mai come nella definizione della latitudine securitaria si svela un preoccupante accavallamento tra prevenzione e repressione, tra sicurezza dei diritti e diritto alla sicurezza, tra sicurezza come diritto fondamentale e sicurezza come protezione del cittadino da minacce incombenti (reali o artificiali) della natura più diversa. L'Autrice analizza l'espansione incontrollata del concetto di sicurezza alla stregua della normativa penale sull'immigrazione clandestina e sul terrorismo, senza tralasciare i riflessi del ritorno del "diritto penale del nemico" su una società multiculturale in cui l'integrazione torna ad essere miraggio, se non obiettivo indesiderato. La sicurezza è uno dei cardini su cui si fonda il populismo (anche) penale dell'attuale momento storico. Il saggio cerca di comprenderne le cause e di indagarne i possibili, necessari rimedi.

Book Courts  Pluralism and Law in the Everyday

Download or read book Courts Pluralism and Law in the Everyday written by Cinzia Piciocchi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the everyday judicial experience in four multicultural jurisdictions as a means of exploring the relationship between legal systems and cultural identities. Increasing social heterogeneity has deeply affected legal systems as courts and parliaments must now deal with a growing rate of cases concerning cultural pluralism. Headline-grabbing disputes usually concern challenges to fundamental rights and principles which may be put at risk by some religious or cultural practices. These are difficult issues questioning the compatibility between some cultural and religious practices and constitutional values. However, much of the interaction between law and cultural pluralism also concerns daily life activities, which do not necessarily challenge fundamental rights. This book deals with food, clothing and days of rest: three expressions of both human needs and identity which are based on ethnic origin, tradition, culture, religion or, simply, taste. The volume looks at the intersection between these choices and constitutional rights such as religious liberty or freedom of expression. It aims to understand how the state legal system deals with them and when non-mainstreaming behaviours are accommodated. Four legal systems are taken into consideration – the United States of America, Canada, France and Italy – exploring similarities and differences in facing cultural diversity around these quotidian issues. The book pays particular attention to the places where diversity is most apparent and also considers the choices that are not based on religious precepts, but rather on “personal philosophy”. The book will be of interest to researchers, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of constitutional law, law and cultural diversity, human rights, minority rights and discrimination law.

Book Italian Populism and Constitutional Law

Download or read book Italian Populism and Constitutional Law written by Giacomo Delledonne and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume explores the relationship between constitutionalism and populism in the Italian context. Italian populism is of interest to comparative lawyers for many reasons. Firstly, the country has a long-lasting tradition of anti-parliamentarism over the course of its history as a unitary state. After the 2018 general election, it has turned into the first European country in which two self-styled populist parties formed a coalition government. Although it collapsed in August 2019, many issues that it had raised remain. Secondly, as Italy is a founding member of the European Communities, the constitutional implications of populist politics have to be considered not only within the national framework but also in a wider context. This book argues that the relationship between populism and constitutionalism should not be seen in terms of mutual exclusion and perfect opposition. Indeed, populism frequently relies on concepts and categories belonging to the language of constitutionalism (majority, democracy, people), offering a kind of constitutional counter-narrative.

Book excerpt: 'This is a remarkable, challenging and bravely original work.'

Book Modern Shakespeare Offshoots

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ruby Cohn
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2015-03-08
  • ISBN : 1400867827
  • Pages : 440 pages

Download or read book Modern Shakespeare Offshoots written by Ruby Cohn and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare's plays have never had a larger audience than they do in our time. This wide viewing is complemented by modern scholarship, which has verified and elucidated the plays' texts. Nevertheless, Shakespeare's plays continue to be revised. In order to find out how and why he has been rewritten, Ruby Cohn examines modern dramatic offshoots in English, French, and German. Surveying drama intended for the serious theater, the author discusses modern versions of Shakespeare's plays, especially Macbeth, Hamlet, King Lear, and The Tempest. Although the focus is always on drama, contrast is supplied by fiction stemming from Hamlet and essays inspired by King Lear. The book concludes with an assessment of the influence of Shakespeare on the creative work of Shaw, Brecht, and Beckett. Originally published in 1976. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Cool Memories

Download or read book Cool Memories written by Jean Baudrillard and published by Verso. This book was released on 1990 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Baudrillard's last book was about America. His new one is about cats, Foucault, Alfa Romeas, leukemia, Catholicism, the Berlin Wall, mattresses, Laurent Fabius, Jean-Paul II, roses, Antarctica, Lech Walesa, mud wrestling, Zinoviev, porn films, snow, feminism, Rio, Jacques Lacan, Stevie Wonder, Palermo, DNA and terrorism. "Cool Memories is the other side of America, the disillusioned side, presented in the form of a diary, though not in the classical sense. I'm trying to grasp a world in all its silences and its brutality. Can you grasp a world when you're no longer tied to it by some kind of ideological enthusiasm, or by traditional passions? Can things "tell" themselves through stories and fragments? These are some of the questions posed in a book which may seem melancholic. But then I think almost every diary is melancholic. Melancholy is in the very state of things."

Book The Fascist Effect

    Book Details:
  • Author : Reto Hofmann
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2015-06-05
  • ISBN : 0801453410
  • Pages : 219 pages

Download or read book The Fascist Effect written by Reto Hofmann and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the interwar period, Japanese intellectuals, writers, activists, and politicians, although conscious of the many points of intersection between their politics and those of Mussolini, were ambivalent about the comparability of Imperial Japan and Fascist Italy. In The Fascist Effect, Reto Hofmann uncovers the ideological links that tied Japan to Italy, drawing on extensive materials from Japanese and Italian archives to shed light on the formation of fascist history and practice in Japan and beyond. Moving between personal experiences, diplomatic and cultural relations, and geopolitical considerations, Hofmann shows that interwar Japan found in fascism a resource to develop a new order at a time of capitalist crisis. Japanese thinkers and politicians debated fascism as part of a wider effort to overcome a range of modern woes, including class conflict and moral degeneration, through measures that fostered national cohesion and social order. Hofmann demonstrates that fascism in Japan was neither a European import nor a domestic product; it was, rather, the result of a complex process of global transmission and reformulation. By focusing on how interwar Japanese understood fascism, Hofmann recuperates a historical debate that has been largely disregarded by historians, even though its extent reveals that fascism occupied a central position in the politics of interwar Japan. Far from being a vague term, as postwar historiography has so often claimed, for Japanese of all backgrounds who came of age from the 1920s to the 1940s, fascism conjured up a set of concrete associations, including nationalism, leadership, economics, and a drive toward empire and a new world order.
