With judgment no. 135 of 2025, the Constitutional Court, having ascertained the occurrence of a constitutional vulnus dating back to 2022, nevertheless declared the unlawfulness of the contested legislation only «as from the day following the publication» of its decision in the Official Gazette and thus «without retroactive effect». The Author criticizes the decision-making technique employed by the Court in this case, both in relation to its (self-)qualification as a mere declaration of «superv[...]

2026-05-29T04:26:35+00:00

After explaining why writing matters and why the legal scholar can rely on creative writing to describe judicial writing, the article focuses on the sentence, the characters, and the plot as the basic units of the text. The law is made of words and basic rules of composition can reveal its deeper mechanisms. Whether to include an adverb to highlight importance, to hide the subject of a sentence to constr[...]

2026-05-29T00:39:55+00:00

Paragraph 1 of Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) (UN, 1989) gives children the right to express their views freely in all matters affecting them and for their views to be given due weight in accordance with their age and maturity. It has previously been acknowledged, however, that the process of translating this article results in a gap between the stated article and its realisation within policy and practice contexts (Robinson et al., 2020; Lundy, 20[...]

2026-05-22T07:33:22+00:00

The article aims to shed a light on the unique complexities inherent in surrogacy and the legal-ethical challenges that currently exists even in many advanced democracies, which frequently result in uneven and ill-defined standards and processes.

Reasonableness and Balancing in Recent Interpretation by the Italian Constitutional Court

2026-05-22T07:33:14+00:00

The constitutional case-law of the last few years confirms the unbreakable bond between interpretation and balance, and the impossibility, for the purposes of application, of interpreting without balancing and balancing without interpreting. The paper criticizes both those who advocate for an abstract distinction between the ‘legislative’ balance and the ‘judicial’ balance, and those who confine reasonableness to equality or equal treatment, or social consensus, or praxis, or living law. The imp[...]

‘Child Labour’ and Law in Ancient Rome

2026-05-22T07:33:02+00:00

The aim of paper is to present an initial, absolutely provisional, assessment of the legal regulation of what, in modern terminology, we have called ‘child labour’. The point of view is that of the legal historian, but in an interdisciplinary perspective it can also assume relevance in the medical sphere, as it allows us to better focus on certain aspects, referring in particular to the conditions of psycho-physical stress of children and adolescents engaged in work activities, which can then be[...]

L'accesso diretto alla giustizia costituzionale nella dinamica dei conflitti tra giurisdizioni nazionali e corti sovranazionali

2026-05-22T07:33:00+00:00

Conversely, constitutional complaints play a key role in Austria and Germany. Against this backdrop, the article examines how constitutional complaints can operate as a useful tool to foster a sound integration of national constitutional courts in in the European system of protection of fundamental rights. Then, the article analyses the Italian experience, focus[...]

Culture, Catalan and cultural diversity in Catalonia: The growing challenge for cultural “national” affirmation of Catalonia

2026-05-22T04:33:41+00:00

Catalonia has formally acknowledged cultural diversity in its cultural and linguistic policies since the 1990s. The parliament has enacted laws protecting the Aranese language in the Val d’Aran, and the Generalitat has integrated immigrants thanks to interdepartmental programmes. Around 2010, Catalonia and Spain entered a political crisis, which was intensified by the central government’s recentralization, notably in cultural and linguistic policies. Spain ratified the UNESCO Convention on the P[...]

The Beginnings of Anti-Jewish Legislation : The 1920 Numerus Clausus Law in Hungary

2026-05-15T10:44:01+00:00

The Nazi 1933 Civil Service Law and the 1935 Nuremberg Laws are often considered the first anti-Jewish decrees in interwar Europe. Mária M. Kovács convincingly argues that Hungary’s numerus clausus law of 1920, which introduced a Jewish quota at Hungary’s institutions of higher learning, was, in fact, interwar Europe’s first antisemitic law. By defining—and discriminating against—Jews as a separate “racial” or “national” group, it abrogated the principle of equal rights that had been enshrined i[...]

Judicial Rhapsodies : Rhetoric and Fundamental Rights in the Supreme Court

2026-05-15T10:44:04+00:00

All judges legitimize their decisions in writing, but US Supreme Court justices depend on public acceptance to a unique degree. Previous studies of judicial opinions have explored rhetorical strategies that produce legitimacy, but none have examined the laudatory, even operatic, forms of writing Supreme Court justices have used to justify fundamental rights decisions. Doug Coulson demonstrates that such “judicial rhapsodies” are not an aberration but a central feature of judicial discourse. Firs[...]

Predictors of Child Well-being or What Makes Children Happy

2026-05-15T10:44:04+00:00

In order to understand what makes children happy, it is important to hear what children have to say about their lives themselves. Their voices do not always resonate with the widespread discourse of adults about what children need, and the very awareness of children‚Äôs well-being diverges between adults and children. This chapter presents an analysis of overall life satisfaction and subjective well-being of 2,000 children living in the Tyumen region, Russia. The survey was conducted as part of [...]

Every child has a basic fundamental right to survival, protection and education. These and many other rights are outlined in the UNCRC (1989), a legally binding international agreement.

This chapter which draws upon a reflective journal that documents my experience of working with refugee children and thei[...]

Lindsey, Don W. : The Supreme Court Controversy of 1937

2026-05-15T10:44:01+00:00

The Supreme Court controversy of 1937 was evidently nothing more, nor nothing less, than an ultra dynamic liberal element challenging the then traditional conservative position of the Federal Judiciary. It was the purpose of this study to analyze the argumentations of the conservative and liberal positions (1) to discover if some liberals were radical, and if some conservatives were reactionary; (2) to measure the success of President Roosevelt, and to find if he accomplished his purpose even th[...]

Do Constitutional Courts Use Balancing to Promote Judicial Activism?

2026-05-15T10:44:01+00:00

In an empirical analysis of the German and the South African constitutional courts and the Canadian Supreme Court, the study presented in this video examines the use of the concept of balancing. Contrary to the common understanding, NIELS PETERSEN shows that courts do not use balancing to engange in judicial activism. Instead, they restrain themselves and employ proportionality as an instrument of rationality review, i.e. a means for compensating political market failures.

This study is a first attempt to examine the part of women in the social networking at the court. My starting point is the thesis, that only a new phrasing of the concept of the distinction between "public" and "privacy" will adduce an useful model for interpretation of the role of women in the courtly society. This is the background of my examination of a group of women of the courtly society, the female officeholders at the court of Vienna in the first half of the 17th century. In the descript[...]

The Austrian Supreme Court, in a similar way to the Polish Supreme Court, states that canon law rules governing church property are relevant in the field of acts of legal entities of the Catholic Church. Hence, the views and arguments presented in its judgements in cases concerning the management of ecclesiastical property are also important for Polish legal practice. Between 1959 and 2013 a number of judgements were issued. There were a variety of cases, starting from the sale of the immovable [...]

In the Kingdom of Spain, under the 1953 Concordat, the jurisprudence recognized the effectiveness of canon law regulations on the representation of legal entities of the Catholic Church in Spanish private law. The justification for the reception of canon law provisions in Spanish law was seen in the concordat provisions, in general civil law regulations on the representation of legal persons or in art. 38 para. 2 of the Spanish Civil Code, which makes a clear reference to the concordat with the [...]

Genuinely constitutive rules

2026-05-13T17:36:53+00:00

In this article I am going to argue that despite the fact that (1) there is nothing specific to the form of constitutive rules and (2) that in some broad sense every rule has a constitutive aspect, there is a substantial difference between what might be called trivially and genuinely constitutive rules, and the difference can be spotted by looking at practices that rules are supposed to constitute, not at these rules.
