Abstract

THE JURISDICTION OF THE “ALTA CORTE DI GIUSTIZIA SPORTIVA” OVER FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS: TOWARDS A REVITALIZATION OF THE SPORTS LEGAL SYSTEM?
by Maria Immordino

The interest toward the “sport justice” – in the framework of the relationships between sport law and state law – has been recently reawaken thanks to the institution, by the CONI, of the “High court of sport Justice”. The creation of the Court – whose competences extend to the defence of fundamental rights – had been solicited by the legislator in order to adequate the sport justice system to the constitutional principle of the “giusto processo”. The composition of the court is strongly characterized by the independence and impartiality of his members.

THE NEW REGULATION OVER TIME LIMITS OF ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES. INNOVATIVE CHANGES AND MISSED OPPORTUNITIES
by Antonio Colavecchio

Law no. 69/2009 is the most recent goal achieved in the process of protecting and enhancing the value of the “time” factor in the Public Administration. On this matter, it is of essential importance the control over the time limits of administrative procedures, about which art. 7 of Law no. 69/2009 gives a significant contribution, by completely rewriting art. 2 of Law no. 241/1990. In particular, the new 2009 law re-establishes in 30 days the “ordinary” time limit for finalizing administrative procedures, if not otherwise stated. Along with this re-establishment, a completely new element appears: a precise limit is set to the discretion usually allowed to each Public Administration in establishing the time limits for finalizing their respective procedures. The present paragraph 3 of art. 2 Law no. 241/1990 states, in principle, that, even for procedures which are independently ruled by the various Public Administrations and the Local Authorities, time limits cannot in any way exceed 90 days. The 2009 Law has by the way once again “given up” outlining the “procedural” consequences of not complying with the time limits of administrative procedures (to date, the non-compliance with time limits does not make the administrative provision unlawful. However, the 2009 Law has clearly set some of the effects stemming from the delay of the Public Administration in finalizing the procedure, by connecting two kinds of “sanctions” to the non-compliance with time limits. Such “sanctions” occur both inside and outside the Public Administration involved (respectively, with reference to the head of unit liability and to the refund for the so-called damage due to delay). These “sanctions” for the useless flowing of time will therefore allow jurisprudence to carry out a revirement of the trend which has so far prevailed and which, as it is common knowledge, denies both the loss of administrative power in case of non-compliance with the time limits, and the unlawfulness of the administrative provision tardily adopted.

SYSTEM OF CHECKS: NEW AND OLD ISSUES
by Roberta Lombardi

The article stems from the observation of the substantial failure of internal efficiency checks regulated by d.lgs. n. 286/1999, almost never implemented in the public administration, to try and evaluate the effects of the recent reform on new public management (as instituted by d.lgs. n. 150/2009) might produce on the aforementioned forms efficiency monitoring. In particolar the attention of the author is focussed on the criteria for the evaluation of management, setting the impact of the norms that redraw the efficiency monitoring system against the background of the unresolved issue of the relationship between poltics and public administration.

ADMINISTRATIVE FUNCTIONS AND GROUND GOVERNMENT IN THE NEW CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER
by Paola Lombardi

In Italy, administrative functions have received a new account by the constitutional reform of 2001. The new distinction among “fundamental”, “conferred”, “proper” and “assigned” functions, under article 118, requires an examination of the meaning of these expressions. It’s also interesting to see how this distinction is applied in the context of the ground government, even in the light of indications from European law. It’s a matter that is affected, more than the others, by the difficulties owed to the delays (existing in Italy) in the implementation of the constitutional reform at the administrative level.

LISBON TREATY AND FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS: NEW PERSPECTIVES REFERRING TO THE CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EUROPEAN UNION AND EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS
by Tommaso Pensabene Lionti

The author analyses some important aspects of the impact that the Lisbon Treaty can have in the system of the community tutelage of fundamental rights. In particular the author deals with the central core of those provisions of the law which concern the complicated theme relating to the juridical value of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the relationship between European Union and European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and fundamental Freedoms. The n. 1 article of Lisbon Treaty gives the Charter of Fundamental Rights EU the same juridical value of the treaties. So the author wants to clarify the impasse that this article will determine on the role taken by the Court of justice to protect the fundamental juridical situations. Nevertheless if from one side there is the possibility of an enlargement of protection (recognition of civil and political rights and economical, social and cultural ones), on the other side, some ambiguities appear (as for example, among the light and shade effects of the Treaty, the right of opting out given to some States members). Concerning the new n. 6 article TEU, the author analyses the relationship between the Court of justice and the European Court of Human Rights, highlighting that there are the conditions that give the two Courts the chance to act with synergy; even if some difficulties persist in order to harmonize the two systems of tutelage

PRECAUTIONARY SUSPENSION IN THE JUDICIAL REVIEW OF LEGISLATION
by Manuela Salvago

The aim of this essay deals with the power to order precautionary suspension in the judicial review of legislation. This power was introduced by legge n. 131 del 2003. It presents some interesting problematic aspects, which will be carefully considered. First of all, the essay studies the problem of the most appropriate legal source to regulate the precautionary suspension power. Secondly, it focuses on the object and on the preconditions for the exercise of this power, comparing them with the preconditions of the traditional precautionary protection: fumus boni iuris and periculum in mora. Finally, it examines the Constitutional Court’s ways of exercising this power and its effects.

Abstract

THE NOMINATION OF THE VINYARD LANDSCAPE OF SOUTHWESTERN PIEMONTE AS “TERRITORY OF WORLD HERITAGE”: SHORT NOTES ON THE PROTECTION OF RURAL LANDSCAPE
by Roberta Lombardi

The nomination from UNESCO of the Piemonte vinyards landscape as “territory of world heritage”, is the starting point of this article. From there, the article moves to more general considerations on the notion of “landscape” and the juridic implications of its protection, with particular focus on the issue of the defense and development of rurallandscape.

THE FAILURE OF SPECIAL REGIONALISM
by Simone Pajno

The aim of this essay is to briefly deal with the role of the category of regions usually called “Regioni Speciali”. In section 2 I study the reasons at the ground of “special regionalism”. Section 3 describes the most important features of the “real life” of the Regioni speciali, and of Regione siciliana in particular. This kind of Regions never enjoyed the special treatment one could infer from the constitutional text. Section 4 will hold the importance of fiscal federalism. In section 5 I attempt to offer a comprehensive reading of the shape that l. cost. 3/2001 gave to the Italian system. The main idea is that the constitutional reform determined the fall of the State’s superiority. The key-words I use to explain this point of view are “pluralismo istituzionale paritario” (that can be translated as “equal institutional pluralism”) and “sussidiarietà” (subsidiarity). Of course, subsidiarity is a well-known concept in political and legal studies. The thesis I try to draw is that in this context the role of the “statute speciali” is significantly different from before. They now have to offer the tools to make the democracy in “Regioni speciali” more profound. They have not to be used to build boundaries between the general legal order and the regional one.

CONTEMPORARY LEGAL POSITIVISM’S “CONVENTIONALIST TURN”: A CRITICAL OUTLINE
by Aldo Schiavello

The target of this paper is to analyze legal positivism’s conventionalist turn with regard to the topic of legal obligation and legal normativity. The conclusions aims to shed light on some deep limits of this kind of legal positivism. In short, conventionalism has two options, both of them unsatisfying. The first one – chosen, among others, by Herbert Hart – proposes a “weak” version of conventionalism; this strategy is losing in so far as does not allow to distinguish legal obligation from moral obligation. The second option – sketched out by authors like Chaim Gans and Gerald Postema – supports a “strong” version of conventionalism which offers a coherent model of legal obligation but at cost of misrepresenting the law.

THE NATIONAL SOLIDARITY FOUND: FISCAL AND LEGAL ASPECTS
by Salvatore Di Gregorio

The contribution that the State, yearly, is obliged to pay to the Sicilian region, as National Solidarity, disciplined by the article 38 of the Sicilian Statute is finalized to balance the difference of income between the Sicily and the national average.The essay outlines a synthesis, about more of 60 years of application of the institute of the “National Solidarity”, in Sicilian Region, examining financial and juridical aspects.Under the financial profile, are dealt the aspects related to the different levels of assigned resources and to the typology of the activated interventions. Under the juridical profile, are dealt the application aspects in relationship to the sentences of the Constitutional Court, but, above all, the possible developments of the institute with the achievement of the fiscal federalism in Italy.The essay specifically draws a general picture of the national normative that, subsequently, have disciplined the assignments of the funds to Sicily, as National Solidarity, from 1952 up to the 2007 financial law; it also examines the aspects of the State power to set limits to the use of the funds. A particular chapter is dedicated to the methods of employment of the resources, of which are analyzed the priorities, the criterions and the sectors of action. It is also, specifically, analyzed, the jurisprudence of the constitutional Court on the matter and the useful remarks, in subject, from the “Brancasi Commission” on the financial contentious between the State and the Sicilian Region. The analysis examines, besides, the relationship between the application of the article 38 of the Sicilian Statute and the reform of the title V of the Italian Constitution, comparing the constitutional discipline (particularly the article 119) and the statutory discipline. Finally the work dedicates a specific reflections to the connections between the sicilian institute of National Solidarity
and the theme on fiscal incentives and the public aids, in E.U.

SOME CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE AGREEMENTS STIPULATED ON 4 APRIL 2007 CARRIED OUT BY ART.8.3 OF THE CONSTITUTION AND ABOUT THEIR NON-APPROVAL
by Anna Sveva Mancuso

A radical change of the composition of the population from a religious point of view emerged in the last twenty years of the twentieth century in Italy together with the late unsettled realization of the instrument of agreements with the non-catholic denominations provided by art. 8.3 of the Constitution. We must reflect about continuing to go along with the path traced by the constituents or find other solutions to answer the even more insistent requests made by the large number of religious groups in the country, which are still subject to the obsolete provisions of 1929-1930. The agreements stipulated by Prodi’s Government on April 2007 and their failure made evident by the fact that after two years, six of these are still waiting to be presented to Parliament by the Government for approval, show what it is that went wrong and what should be done to modernize the relations between the State and the religious minorities respecting the principles of equal freedom, present in the 3° subsection of art.8 Cost., which should be the main rule of Italian ecclesiastic law.

THE EU BLUE CARD: AN UPDATED POLICY OF THE MIGRANT GUEST-WORKER
by Marco Evola

The Council adopted the Directive 2009/50 on the conditions of entry and residence of third-country highly skilled workers on the 25th May 2009. The Directive’s main purpose is setting up a procedure capable of responding promptly to fluctuating demands for migrant labour in the labour market. The achievement of this aim entails an high degree of harmonization in order to reduce the differences between national systems of recruitment and enhance the European internal market attractiveness as a whole, but the Directive does not achieve its goal because of the room left to States’ discretionary power and the way workers’ rights have been shaped. In fact the Directive is intended to control migration rather than to lure highly skilled workers, so that EU Blue Card holders represent a new figure of the migrant guest-workers.

“STEWARDS OF THE STADIUM, NEW EMPLOYEES TO SECURITY AND PUBLIC ORDER: THE PUBLIC OFFICIAL, PUBLIC SERVICE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR CONDUCTING A SERVICE OF PUBLIC NEED?”
by Paolo Garraffa

The paper is concerned to analyze, even critically, the discipline on the “stewards” of the stadiums. Starting with a brief historical reconstruction of the legislation on safety of sandblasting sports (which has since been recognized the need to resort to figures of this kind), it proceeds to reconstruct the stages on the evolution that has seen legislation introduced this figure into Italian. In the absence of their precise legal classification in the Italian law system, it tries to give an answer on that issue.

THE FAMILY REUNION BETWEEN MIGRATORY FLOWS AND PROTECTION OF FAMILY UNITY RIGHT
by Agata Anna Genna

This paper deals with the concept of right to family reunion, deriving from the case law of European Court of Justice and Italian Constitutional Court. First of all the relationship between the right to family reunion and migrants’ rights is analyzed. Then the right to family reunion is considered as it flows from EC Directive 2003/86/CE and, consequently, from the execution norms adopted by Italian Parliament. Afterwards the influence of EC law on the national legislation on family rights is examined. The conclusion is about the importance of guaranteing the free circulation of “family loves” bearing in mind the importance of the European integration and considering, on the other hand, the public order requirements.

IN HOUSE AND LOCAL COMMUNITY SERVICE: BRIEF STORY OF A MODEL CAPITOLATION
by Santi Delia

The Author briefly goes over the story of community service model management and the normative and jurisprudencial arrangements followed from the beginning of 1900: from Giolitti Law of 1903, to regulations scheme of wich at President of Republic Decree on the 26th of February 2009 provided by 23 bis article of decree n. 112/08, passed, with alteration, by the 6th of August 2008 n. 113 Law. The heart of the analysis is the dichotomy, always admitted by community and national jurisprudencial, between the choice of civil service for community service autoproduction and their outsourcing through the appeal of the market. The legislative evolution analysis showes as the present set-up, defined with the introduction of the 23 bis article of decree n. 112/08, brings to a drastic reduction of the effective choice possibility of Civil Service among the several management models admitted till now, forcing to choose for the so-called outsourching: the implementation of 23 bis article, in consideration of corroboration gained by local authority involved to accede to in house on Guarantor Authority of Competion and Market side, showes a real unworkability of the chose of services autoproduction on civil law side.
