Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For fifty years, the first edition of The Italian Legal System has been the gold standard among English-language works on the Italian legal system. The book's original authors, Mauro Cappelletti, John Henry Merryman, and Joseph M. Perillo, provided not only an overview of Italian law, but a definition of the field, together with an important contribution to the general literature on comparative law. The book explains the unique "Italian style" in doctrine, law, and interpretation and includes an extremely well-written introduction to Italian legal history, government, the legal profession, and civil procedure and evidence. In this fully-updated and revised second edition, authors Michael A. Livingston, Pier Giuseppe Monateri, and Francesco Parisi describe the substantial changes in Italian law and society in the intervening five decades—including the creation and impact of the European Union, as well as important advances in comparative law methodology. The second edition poses timely, relevant questions of whether and to what extent the unique Italian style of law has survived the pressures of European unification, American influence, and the globalization of law and society in the intervening period. The Italian Legal System, Second Edition is an important and stimulating resource for those with specific interest in Italy and those with a more general interest in comparative law and the globalization process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997, this volume provides the reader from a common law background with an introduction to the Legal System and basic private law institutions of contemporary Italy. It aims to afford a basic understanding, rather than a detailed presentation, of Italian law, through an appreciation of its historical development within the civil law tradition and its place in that family of legal systems descended from Roman law. Having described Italy’s place in European legal history and identified the main features of civil law systems generally, it examines the structure of the modern Italian State, its legislative process. Constitution, legal professions and systems of civil, criminal and administrative justice. The last third is devoted to private law, in particular the law relating to the family, property, contracts and civil wrongs, particular attention being paid to differences between the civil and common law approaches to these subjects. It is a readable, lucid and systematic account of its subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In questa breve presentazione i sistemi giuridici occidentali sono analizzati in una prospettiva integrata, come sistemi complessi di cui ogni componente è in costante rapporto con (ed influenzata da) le altre parti. Nel contempo i sistemi giuridici sono collocati in un contesto globale con il quale sono in costante osmosi. Il lavoro propone il superamento della tradizionale partizione fra sistemi di civil law e sistemi di common law e la suddivisione in "famiglie giuridiche". Il volume è destinato a corsi introduttivi al Diritto Comparato e ai Sistemi Giuridici Comparati ed è articolato in nove capitoli: 1. Sistemi democratici. 2. Valori. 3. Struttura del governo. 4. La dimensione economica. 5. Lo "stato sociale". 6. La repressione dei reati. 7. Giudici e giurisdizione. 8. Modelli per un mondo globalizzato. 9. Conclusioni: Cimiteri e nuovi percorsi.

Download or read book Foundations of Italian Public Law written by GROPPI TANIA and published by Giappichelli. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed at presenting in English the main aspects of the Italian Public Law to domestic and international audience. This demands a new approach, departing from the traditional perspective of the Italian legal doctrine. For that reason, it proposes a journey through the Italian legal system, along two main dimensions: comparative dialogue and historical perspective. First of all, although the focus of the book is on Italian law, the comparative perspective is pervasive. Using the English language to present Italian and rules implies a continuous comparison. Italy is considered not “the” case-study, but rather “a” case-study. It is an example of a broader legal family, which corresponds to that of post-World War II liberal-democracies. Secondly, an historical perspective is also necessary, so as to frame existing Italian law within the many events and regimes of Italy’s recent history. The book is organised in two parts. The first part deals with the State and its evolutionary patterns, including rights and freedom. The second part is dedicated to the form of government, including the sources of law.

This book was released on 2014-02-13 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inefficiency of the Italian judicial system has contributed to reduced investments, slow growth and a difficult business environment. The enforcement of civil and commercial claims suffers from excessive delays in court proceedings, resulting in a very large number of pending cases. The Italian authorities have over the years taken steps to remove bottlenecks and speed up judicial proceedings. While these measures are generally steps in the right direction, more can be done. Consideration could be given, inter alia, to reviewing court fees, improving the new mandatory mediation scheme, strengthening court management, and reforming the appeal system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book provides a practical analysis of criminal law in Italy. An introduction presents the necessary background information about the framework and sources of the criminal justice system, and then proceeds to a detailed examination of the grounds for criminal liability, the justification of criminal offences, the defences that diminish or excuse criminal liability, the classification of criminal offences, and the sanctions system. Coverage of criminal procedure focuses on the organization of investigations, pre-trial proceedings, trial stage, and legal remedies. A final part describes the execution of sentences and orders, the prison system, and the extinction of custodial sanctions or sentences. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for criminal lawyers, prosecutors, law enforcement officers, and criminal court judges handling cases connected with Italy. Academics and researchers, as well as the various international organizations in the field, will welcome this very useful guide, and will appreciate its value in the study of comparative criminal law.

Download or read book Dialogues on Italian Constitutional Justice written by Vittoria Barsotti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection adopts a distinctive method and structure to introduce the work of Italian constitutional law scholars into the Anglophone dialogue while also bringing a number of prominent non-Italian constitutional law scholars to study and write about constitutional justice in a global context. The work presents six distinct areas of particular interest from a comparative constitutional perspective: first, the role of legal scholarship in the work of constitutional courts; second, structures and processes that contribute to more “open” or “closed” styles of constitutional adjudication; third, pros and cons of collegiality in the work of constitutional courts; fourth, forms of access by individuals to constitutional justice; fifth, methods of constitutional interpretation; and sixth, the relationship between national constitutional adjudication and the transnational context. In each of these six areas, the volume sets up a new and genuine constitutional dialogue between an Italian scholar presenting a discussion and critical assessment of the specific topic, and a non-Italian scholar who responds elaborating the issue as seen from constitutional law beyond the Italian system. The resulting six such dialogues thus provide a dynamic, in-depth, multidimensional, national and transnational/comparative examination of these areas in which the `Italian style’ of constitutional adjudication has a distinctive contribution to make to comparative constitutional law in general. Fostering a deeper knowledge of the Italian Constitutional Court within the comparative global space and advancing a creative and fruitful methodological approach, the book will be fascinating reading for academics and researchers in comparative constitutional law.
