Published in English and French
Rome - 1975 - 423 pages
 
PRESENTATION
In the economically developed countries, there has been a trend towards decriminalizing certain forms of conduct which were traditionally the subject of
penal sanctions. This has occurred in a number of ways, from eliminating the criminal classification of the infraction, to reducing the number of instances which have to be the subject of criminal proceedings, to modifying the means of dealing with offenders. The phenomenon, and problems arising from it, are tackled, as is the practice in Inter-Association Colloquia, in Reports - here, four in total - submitted by each of the participating Associations. The Volume then gives details of the discussions, along with the Summary Report which was the responsibility of CNPDS.

L’insegnamento sociologico del diritto
By Renato Treves and Vincenzo Ferrari
Research by CNPDS undertaken with the support of the Italian National
Research Council
Edizioni di Comunità - Milan - 1976 - 360 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The revolt movement against formalism, which began to show itself in the field of juridical studies in the early decades of the century and which has spread widely and intensified in Europe and America, has more than ever drawn sharp attention to the need for sociological teaching alongside the traditional dogmatic teaching of the law. This explains why, in the last decade, faculties and departments of universities in very different countries have instituted courses in sociology of law. This Volume collects together contributions on the entry of this discipline into the university curriculum, written by specialists in the following countries: Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Japan, Great Britain, India, Italy, Yugoslavia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, German Federal Republic, Spain, USA, Switzerland, Hungary, USSR. It is clear from these contributions what are the characteristics that sociology of law has assumed as a result of the systematic work of exposition involved in academic teaching.

171. THE FINANCING OF BUSINESS UNDERTAKINGS
Il finanziamento delle imprese
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Trieste-Grignano, Italy, 22nd-24th October 1976
No. 8, Collection of Study Conferences «Current Problems of Civil Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1977 - XV 209 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume which contains the Proceedings of the Conference mentioned in the above heading, deals with an extremely burning theme. One does not need to be an economist or a scholar of business economics to acknowledge the grave distorsions, both quantitative and qualitative, to which Italian business undertakings are subject in their financing. The man in the street senses it, especially in his capacity as a worker and as a citizen, the lawyer and the judge are aware daily of its consequences, standing – whether inside or outside the court – at the bedside of the ailing firm. Without a cured business structure – or rather without a new one – the State is condemned to decline to the level of under-development or, as it is more politely described today, to the level of the countries in the course of development. Naturally, the problem of the crisis of business is not simply solved by a more correct or new means of financing of firms. Nevertheless it is certain that the road to recovery needs this as one of its crucial stages.
 
CONTENTS

No. 11, Collection of Study Conferences «Enrico de Nicola - Current Problems of Criminal Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1977 - XX 686 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The careful scrutiny of the theme proposed to the IXth Enrico de Nicola Conference, which in recent years has become ever more pressing, highlighted the negative effects of excessive recourse to the custodial sentence: reduction of the deterrent effect when prison terms are served for actions which do not command a certain collective degree of disapproval, aggravation of problems of security and failure of rehabilitative proposals caused by the excessive over-crowding of prison establishments, high economic and social costs, and frequent criminogenic effects of detention, especially among the younger inmates. For its part, the Council of Europe has suggested to the various countries a wider employment of the alternative measures of: fines, various prohibitions or suspensions of rights which currently are only used as supplementary orders or as measures of security or prevention, transfer to the supervision of the social services, release and house arrest or weekend restraints, etc.

PRESEN TATION
In this Volume are collected the results of the research carried out on the administration of Justice in the current situation of crisis, with reference to the judicial structures which fall short of providing a satisfactory response to the demands of interested parties, whether in the civil or criminal field.

PRESENTATION
This Volume publishes the results of a research study on problems of health, entrusted by the Committee for the Juridical and Political Sciences of the National Research Council to CNPDS (*). The starting-point for the research took note of the fact that the evolution of social relations, industrial development and the different organization of life and work have given to the problem of health a new dimension and a new urgency. Today, health is assailed and jeopardized, although it represents an asset not only of the individual but also of society as a whole. Thus the research – as its title indicates – confronted this fundamental human right in both its above-mentioned aspects and in all the possible points of conflict and connexion which characterize its dynamics.

175. LIABILITY OF COMPANIES FOR DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AND TO CONSUMERS
La responsabilità dell’impresa per i danni all’ambiente e ai consumatori
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Milan, Italy, 17th-18th December 1976
No. 9, Collection of Study Conferences «Current Problems of Civil Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1978 - XVI 254 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The echo of frequent dramatic instances of damage to the environment by business activities gives a special interest to this Volume, collecting the Proceedings of the Conference held at Milan on the problems of the liability of the manufacturer both for «ecological» damage and for damage caused by the use of finished products.
The Reports that were presented, as well as contributions to the discussions, on both aspects of the theme reflect the deep concern of scholars about the ever more complex consequences to the natural environment. Such concern leads to a wish to introduce an organic discipline so as to satisfy, not only the various interests that come into play, but also the need for an adequate protection of the collective assets.
 
CONTENTS
The responsibility for ecological damage: Introduction (S. Rodotà) - The problem of pollution: economic aspects (G. Mazzocchi) - Public and general outlines of measures to protect against ecological damage (E. Capaccioli) - General outline of protection given by the law against ecological damage (A. Corasaniti) - Procedural aspects of the protection of the environment (V. Denti) - Civil Law premisses (P. Rescigno) - Criminal liability for the type and means of production (F. Bricola) - Final Report (N. Lipari). The responsibility for dangerous products: Introduction (G. Grassetti) - The liability of the manufacturer. General problems (U.

176. PREVENTIVE CUSTODY AS APPLIED BY THE COURTS
La custodia preventiva nell’applicazione giudiziaria
By N. Reale, F. Padoin, R. Breda, C. Casini, D. Cortellessa, G. Dante, V. Espo­sito, T. Galiani, D. Nastro, V. Patalano and G. Tartaglione
Research entrusted to the Criminological Section (*) of CNPDS and undertaken with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Series of Criminology Studies, No. 5
Rome - 1978 - VIII 218 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The research covered in this Volume was undertaken with a view to discovering the discretionary criteria applied in the control of measures ordered by courts whereby the accused person is deprived of his liberty. This is a virtually unexplored field, especially insofar as it concerns the criteria for the practical imposition of remand in custody and then for granting bail, whilst, so far as the study of the problem under the strictly juridical aspect is concerned, there is a greater range of materials, especially in relation to the analysis of the premisses and legal conditions governing the application of the measure. An in-depth examination of the data has been undertaken. The analysis employed not so much formal juridical terms as those giving entry to sociology of law – i.e., with the specific aim of bringing to light the value judgements with which on the one hand the police authorities and on the other the magistrates, ordering, investigating and judging, were inspired when authorising arrest or seizure, in granting bail and in revoking it.
 
CONTENTS
The problem of preventive custody from the juridical and jurisprudential point of view: Commencement and cessation of preventive custody - The most recent reforms - Analysis of data: Age - Sex - Nationality - Residence - Civil status - Levels of education and work - Criminal record - Nature of offence - Nature of original provision - Mandatory and discretionary aspects of Court decision - Combination of crimes - Nature of the final decision - Stage at which the final decision comes into play - Change of nature of the offence - Duration and stages of remand in custody before the final judgement - Applications and appeals of those detained in custody in order to obtain bail - Final considerations.

Research entrusted to the Criminological Section of CNPDS (*) and undertaken with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Series of Criminology Studies, No. 6
Rome - 1978 - VII 168 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume assembles the results of the research carried out by the Criminological Section of the CNPDS, to establish experimentally the social incidence of the general benefits of pardon as compared with the benefits to the individual. Attention is drawn to the fact whereby such measures in general do not diminish the tendency to commit further offences: a fact which should give food for thought to those who are responsible for determining policies in this field.
 
CONTENTS
Aims of the research - Field and premiss of the study - Amnesty, reduction of sentence and recidivism (penalistic perspectives - provision of general pardons in Italy and current trends - statistical data) - Sampling and assembly of data (formation and description of the sample - its structural characteristics: sex, age, criminal antecedents, type of crime, type of punishment) - Reiteration of the benefits: Effects of pardon and recidivism - Amnesty, reduced sentence and recidivism - Final considerations.

178. THE «SUPREMACY» OF COMMUNITY LAW AND THE ITALIAN COURTS
Il primato del diritto comunitario e i giudici italiani
Published with the support of the Italian National Research Council
No. 1, Collection «The Law of the European Communities: Problems and Trends»
Ed. Franco Angeli - Milan - 1978 - 377 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The Collection of studies, of which this is the first Volume, is inspired by a number of observations likely to interest a range of jurists in a broader field than that of purely Community Law. The first of these is that the intervention of Community Law in the ambit of national legal systems is more than an established fact: it is a phenomenon which is constantly expanding. The existence of the legal provisions of the Community today has a significance which cannot be ignored in Constitutional Law, in the Public Law of the economy, in Commercial and Industrial Law, in Labour Law, in Tax Law, and also in civil procedure and certain sectors of national Administrative Law. It is thus without difficulty that one may state that the juridical reality of Community Law gives rise to problems which are progressively becoming more numerous and complex, the study of which involves various sectors of domestic national law.

179. PUBLIC FAMILY CONSULTANTS - NORM AND SOCIAL REALITY
I consultori familiari pubblici - Norma e realtà sociale
By Paola Ronfani, Vera Segre and Nella Velicogna
Published with the support of the Italian National Research Council
No. 1, Collection «Studies and Research in Sociology of Law»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1979 - VIII 204 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume initiates a series of «Studies and Researches in Sociology of Law» published by CNPDS. The works which it contains were undertaken at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of Law at Milan University. The results are set out of a study which began in the last months of 1976 and reached completion towards the end of 1978. Its object was the study of an institution which recently came to form part of the administrative machinery of local government in Italy: family consultancy. This is an attempt at a direct and immediate analysis of the normative and institutional setting and functional implementation, so as to provide a typically sociological-juridical exercise. It seeks to examine, as an on-going research study, the origination and organization of the norms, insofar as they derive from the emerging demands of the social system (studying them – it is worth saying – not only structurally but functionally) and goes on to examine how they are translated into machinery which provides (or should provide) services and assistance in response to such demands. Basically this is a means of verifying the circular process whereby the system of social relationships is grafted on to the juridical sub-system and from there returns to the social milieu as an institutional response to a need.

180. SECRETS AND CRIMINAL EVIDENCE
Segreti e prova penale
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Ferrara, Italy, 30th June-2nd July 1978
No. 12, Collection of Study Conferences «Enrico de Nicola - Current Problems of Criminal Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1979 - XV 226 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The participants in the Conference examined subjects pertaining to the so-called principle of free research of historical truth. This is one of the many myths which contribute towards giving a distorted view of the phenomenon of criminal procedure. In particular, witness evidence and documentary evidence are subject, in their acquisition, to many limitations of various sorts. Notable among these are the many types of secret which are protected at law. Recent legislative reforms (State secrets), repeated issues of Constitutional validity (Press confidences, sensitive judicial polemics, official secrets, professional secrets), complex undertakings, even with an international basis (banking secrets) - all pose new questions and generate doubts on the scope of each category, on the effectiveness of controls over the existence of the secrets that are pleaded and on the timeliness of a balance being drawn between the various opposed interests.

181. PENAL SANCTIONS IN THE TAX-FIELD
Le sanzioni in materia tributaria
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Sanremo, Italy, 21st-22nd October 1978
No. 10, Collection of Study Conferences «Current Problems of Civil Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1979 - XVIII 328 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The Reform Law on Tax matters, in order to ensure the prevention and repression of tax-evasion, provides for a strengthening of the system of administrative and penal sanctions, including imprisonment, and the adjustment of these «in better proportion to the practical entity, both subjective and objective, of the violations».
The various Orders bringing the Reform Law into effect, which were made in 1972 and 1973, have haphazardly provided for the application of sanctions without observance of the directive that they should be «in better proportion to the practical entity, both subjective and objective, of the violations».
In the programme of the Government, supported on all sides, there is a fight against tax-evasion, and as its operational arm there is an immediate transference to the criminal law courts of cases where, even though the tax element may not yet have been defined, there is a prima facie case of an infraction that is subject to penal sanctions. On yet more sides, there has been concern that such a procedural innovation, not preceded by a reorganization of the system of sanctions, will bring further confusion, serious anomalies and widespread and uncontrollable disadvantages, which are sure to work to the benefit of persons accomplished in the skills of tax-evasion. In this situation, the Conference, with its Reports and discussions, sought to make a contribution towards a more efficient implementation of the directives contained in the Reform Law.

184. FAMILY, LAW, SOCIAL CHANGE IN EUROPE
Famiglia, diritto, mutamento sociale in Europa
By Valerio Pocar and Paola Ronfani
Research by CNPDS undertaken with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Edizioni di Comunità - Milan - 1979 - 277 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume contains fourteen essays which make a sociological-juridical study of the evolution of legislation on family relationships in the same number of
European countries. They represent the outcome of promotional and organizational work which began towards the end of 1977 and provide a valuable amount of interesting information on the relations between the evolution of Family Law and social transformation in the various countries, sometimes emphasizing the empirical aspect of the research and sometimes the theoretical aspect.
The usefulness and value of such data seem in no way diminished, but rather enhanced, by a certain diversity of outlook which the reader may note in the various contributions, a diversity which alone serves to confirm a well-known fact: that a sociological-juridical approach is interpreted in a variety of ways by the respective Authors.

187. ABSENTEEISM AND SICKNESS IN INDUSTRY - A JURIDICAL- SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
Assenteismo e malattia nell’industria - Un’analisi sociologico-giuridica
By V. Ferrari, R. Boniardi and N. Velicogna
Research by CNPDS with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Edizioni di Comunità - Milan - 1979 - 194 pages
 
PRESENTATION
Absenteeism in industry which for a long time has been a subject studied by sociologists, psychologists, jurists and organizational specialists, has become in recent years a central theme in the political debate; within it meet and come into opposition the great visions of the power and the role of employers and workers in the manufacturing sector.
The research presented in this Volume examines certain provisions of Laws and Collective Agreements dealing with sickness during the currency of the contract of employment; it seeks primarily to find an answer to the one apparently limited question: has the implementation of such provisions had any influence on the levels of «absenteeism»? The work is the product of studies undertaken by the Centro with the collaboration of the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of Law of Milan University.
 
CONTENTS
Sickness and absenteeism: Legal norms on the treatment of illness - Notes on the concept of absenteeism and on studies of absenteeism - Absenteeism and its relations to legal provisions on sickness - Sickness absence from work: observations in the engineering sector: Definitions on the data collected, their extension and limits - Movements in average levels of absenteeism - General trends - Detailed study of absence rates for «long» and «short» illnesses - Average frequency of bouts of illness - Observations on certain separations - Further reflections suggested by a sampling study - The phenomenon of chronic absenteeism - Sickness in relation to other causes or factors for absence from work - Unpaid absences and disputes with the trade unions - Special observations on Honeywell and Olivetti Business reaction - The judiciary and absenteeism: General survey of decided court cases - Formal procedures incumbent on the sick worker - Controls over the state of sickness and the conduct of the sick worker - Concluding reflections: Italian economic development and industrial relations - Use of the law and political power.
 
 
 
188. THE RIGHT TO STUDY IN THE CONTEXT OF RELATIONS BETWEEN UNIVERSITY AND REGION
Il diritto allo studio nel quadro dei rapporti fra università e regione
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Milan, Italy, 26th-28th October 1978
Organized by CNPDS and the Opera Universitaria of the Milan University
«Quaderni della Regione Lombardia» - Milan - 1979 - 403 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume presents the Proceedings of the Study Conference referred to above. The Conference was prompted by the reform of provisions for the assistance of students at university, introduced by Art. 44 of the Presidential Decree No. 616/1977, which lays down and regulates the transfer to the Regions of the administrative functions previously exercised in this field by the State with the transference of the assets and personnel of the «Opere Universitarie». This transference of functions brought new and important problems, both as to the relations between assistance to university students and the other forms of assistance given by the Regions and also in relation specifically to assistance to university students as an actuation of the right to study. The Conference made a contribution towards determining the proper order of such relationships, giving special attention to the educative and training aspects of assistance to university students and to its cultural and social aims and implications, in the conviction that a suitable reconciliation would prove the happiest and most efficient route to legislative solutions. This was also an important occasion for a meeting of ideas and trends on the right to study in its relations to the future of the University in its scientific and didactic aspects: these ideas and trends of diverse types came from many different backgrounds, experiences and interests.

194. PUBLIC FAMILY COUNSELLING UNITS AT A TIME OF
INSTITUTIONAL AND SOCIAL CRISIS
I consultori familiari pubblici in un quadro di crisi istituzionale e sociale
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Viterbo, 13th-14th October 1979, Organized by CNPDS under the auspices of the Italian National Research Council and in collaboration with the Municipality of Viterbo
No. 2, Collection «Studies and Research in Sociology of Law»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1981 - 472 pages
 
PRESENTATION
In the framework of the organization of the Conference on public family consultancies (Viterbo, 13th-14th October 1979), the CNPDS, with the scientific collaboration of the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of Law of Milan University, set out to produce an informatory paper, as an instrument for further study and a bibliographic reference source, for the use of those attending the Conference as well as practitioners in the social welfare and public health services, civil servants and, in general, all those coming into contact with the problems of this consultative service. The analysis of the documentation led to the identification of clear and specific problems which are common in otherwise diversified territorial and political-economical situations. Thus, despite a social demand for services which varies by area and is connected to the degree of urbanization and consequent industrialization in that area, it was estimated that the concept of social security has developed and transformed to such an extent as to give rise, virtually throughout Italy, to requirements and demands, albeit with different characteristics, of a social-political nature, which call for policies and interventions that are very different from the traditional forms of welfare assistance.

196. GROUPS OF COMPANIES AND CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS
Gruppo di società e bilancio consolidato di gruppo
Published with the support of the Italian National Research Council
No. 4, Collection «The Law of the European Communities: Problems and Trends»
Ed. Franco Angeli - Milan - 1981 - 179 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The subjects dealt with in the many studies contained in this Volume concern problems relating to the development of company undertakings in the present-day world. There is now no shortage of corporate groups, taking for a start, multi-national enterprises; also there is a tendency, fairly general in Italy and motivated by various opportunist possibilities, to fragment businesses into a multiplicity of minor units, all subsidiary to a single holding company; the system of State participation is widespread, in groups and sub-groups, the dubious scheme of «conglomerates» is on the increase, the so-called horizontal groups are also appearing. All this should induce the Italian legislator to reform an outdated legal framework indeed to bring in provisions to regulate these «new» juridical structures. In this setting, precisely because of the caution and slowness of domestic national legislations, the initiatives of the EEC seem providential, in pressing, with the Draft Seventh and Ninth Directives, for the promulgation of «harmonized» legislation which is equal to the situ­ation in each of the systems of the Member States. The CNPDS brought together jurists and businessmen in a fruitful joint exercise, given the nature of the subject-matter, to examine carefully the regulation of groups and consolidated accounts, so contributing consciously to an up-dating of Italian scholars on Community moves in this field by examining all the Directives in force and those planned in the Companies field. From the debate there emerged new approaches which should also be of use to the delegates of the Italian Government in enabling them to operate effectively in the interests of Italy in the negotiations taking place within the Community.

197. PENAL PROBLEMS OF BANKING LEGISLATION
Problemi penali della legislazione bancaria

No. 13, Collection of Study Conferences «Enrico de Nicola - Current Problems of Criminal Law and Procedure»

PRESENTATION
This subject, which presents special features both for the nature of the interests that are specifically protected, including Constitutional safeguards; and for the typification of the organizational structure and controls laid down by the law, was selected as the theme of the XIIIth de Nicola Conference, for the topicality of the problems demonstrated as a result of numerous episodes on contentious irregularities (and not only in formal terms) which have appeared as sure symptoms of an inadequacy of the normative system regulating the banking sector. The study of the boundaries between what is improper civilly and administratively on the one hand and what is unlawful under the Criminal Law on the other; the classification of the offence by reference to the public or private standing of the institution in question; the applicability of ordinary procedural norms in determining conduct classifiable as unlawful, with special attention to the protection of confidentiality; the interpretative controversies over the authority of the Bank of Italy in regard to notices, information and data on banking institutions subject to its social control: these are the particular questions which CNPDS put before the scholars attending, in order to stimulate a constructive debate not only de iure condito but also with a view to future reforms.

198. MAX WEBER AND THE LAW
Max Weber e il diritto
By S. Andrini, N. Bobbio, A. Bruno, L. Capogrossi Colognesi, G. Eisermann, A. Febbrajo, A. E. Galeotti, G. Merola, P.P. Portinaro, P. Rossi, P. Schiera, S. Segre, R. Treves, G. Zaccaria
Edited by Renato Treves
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Castelgandolfo, Italy, 17th-19th October 1980
Organized by CNPDS with the support of the Italian National Research Council

PRESENTATION
The relationships between law and society were widely studied by Max Weber in all his vast output, beginning with his writings as a young man on the commercial companies in the Middle Ages and on Roman agrarian history and leading up to the works of his maturity. Jurists and sociologists interested in such relationships, especially those concerned with sociology of law, divided by different experiences and trends but hoping to find a true identity for their subject, are deeply conscious at the present time of the need once again to study the work of Weber, seeing it not so much as the goal, but as the starting-point for their own future endeavours. In those works they will find an analysis and examination of two classes of problem which currently exercise sociol­ogy of law: on the one hand, those dealing with the doctrines of jurists, who, moving on from law to the science of law, seek to open out its perspective towards society; on the other hand, those dealing with the doctrines of sociol­ogists, who, moving from the study of society and its constituent elements, seek to determine the position occupied in it by the juridical phenomenon and the role that it fulfils. The essays contained in this Volume deal specifically with these problems.

199. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE LAW AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IN ITALY
Attuazione del diritto e ricerca scientifica in Italia
Edited by G.M. Bertin and G. Martinoli
published with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1981 - XII 263 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The Scientific Council of the Centro Nazionale di Prevenzione e Difesa Sociale since 1974, in its usual survey of Bills and reform proposals presented to the two Chambers of Parliament, turned its attention to proposals affecting the development and organization of scientific research in Italy.
Critical notes and observations on some of the Bills whose discussion in Parlia­ment seemed imminent, were thus communicated by the Council to the interested political parties. The political vicissitudes which have beset the life of Par­liament in recent years, did not permit the problems of scientific research to
assume sufficient importance for Parliament to devote detailed consideration to them. Consequently the theme of the promotion and organization of pure and applied scientific research in Italy, along with the idea of appointing a Minister to deal with it - albeit such a concept seems more stimulating for the politicians - has until now been placed on one side by the legislators. This Volume covers the results of the research and studies on this specific theme, attempting to evaluate the degree of compliance (if any) of prevailing legislation in Italy to the needs of scientific and technological research and their development, and recognizing that the role of research, while always important and influential in society, is particularly so in our’s in its situation of rapid transformation. Three years of thought, studies and research have permitted the collection and accumulation of copious materials, even if they are not all entirely homogenous nor always perfectly pertinent to the theme or, on the other hand, surpass the limits devised for the work. Nevertheless, some points have been entirely neglected or not given the detailed examination that they merit.

201. CITIES AND CRIMINALITY
La ville et la criminalité
Report presented by CNPDS and by the Ministry of Justice of Italy in collabor­ation with the Provincial Administration of Milan to the Xth International Congress on Social Defence - Salonika, Greece, 28th September - 2nd October 1981
Published in French
Milan -1981 - 92 pages
 
PRESENTATION
The present Volume adds to and completes the materials referred to in entry No. 200, insofar as it contains the Report of the Ministry of Justice of Italy to the Xth International Congress on Social Defence. This study, to which the Provincial Administration of Milan also contributed, deals, inter alia, with the range of problems arising from the phenomenology concerning the negative effects among adolescents of the so-called «second generation» town-dwelling families in the context of a period of significant social-cultural and economic transformations, which, from the point of view of social integration, have had a profoundly destabilising influence. Moreover, in Italy, as well as a criminality «induced» by the urban environment, there has been an importation, from the rural to the city setting, of various types of criminal behaviours (such as kidnappings, for instance). Moreover, the complex of migratory movements has had a decisive influence in the context of organized crime (Mafia, Camorra, etc. have extended to become a threat to society collectively). In the Report presented in this Volume, there is an analysis of the transformations of criminality
mentioned above, together with suggestions for a normative and organizational system that could be more effective in preventing and controlling such forms of criminality.

202. GENERAL PROBLEMS OF CRIMINAL LAW: REFORM PROPOSALS
Problemi generali di diritto penale: contributo alla riforma
Presentation by Giuliano Vassalli
Published with the support of the Italian National Research Council
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1982 - VII 434 pages
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume contains the first results of the Research (*) which, in 1977, the Italian National Research Council resolved to entrust to the Centro, aimed at establishing a programme of research and studies on the problems of carrying out and reforming the law in Italy. For Criminal Law, the research project concentrated on the subject «The reform of the General Part of the Penal Code».
Despite the breadth of the theme and the vast number of problems it encountered, this endeavour could not fail, at the time it was set in motion, to be considered opportune. The reform of the 1930 Penal Code, which had been in exist­ence for some fifty years and was stagnant in every sense, was long overdue. There had been no more talk of an empowering Law since the indications, albeit extremely generalized, contained in a Government Bill in 1963 on all the Codes but subsequently withdrawn, without Parliament having ever resumed consideration of it. An organic contribution of Criminal Law scholars to the reform movement, in particular dissociated from incidental events and from reference to projects already presented or about to be examined, became more than ever necessary. Thus the research programme had this specific first objective, which also coincided with the wish expressed by a Conference of teachers of Criminal Law held in 1975 at Urbino University.

PRESENTATION
On the basis of an analysis and classification of the numerous scientific contributions to the subject, this Research study concentrates on the «definition» aspect of economic criminality, as propaedeutic to a field study exercise in the form of a public survey (by means of questionnaire) followed by an interpretation of its results. From the analysis of the (predominantly foreign) literature on the subject, proposals have been gathered for the compilation of instruments to study the attitudes and opinions of people in Italy. The ultimate purpose of this is to provide a concrete base for socio-criminological and juridical research and to establish unequivocal objectives for the promotion of demo­cratic legislation on the subject.

204. CITIES AND CRIMINALITY
La ville et la criminalité
Proceedings of the Xth International Congress on Social Defence, published with the support of the Municipality of Milan
Salonika, Greece, 28th September - 2nd October 1981
Published in French and English

PRESENTATION
This Volume completes the work contained in the two preceding ones (see entries Nos. 200 and 201) setting out the Proceedings of the Xth International Congress on Social Defence. The Congress may stand out as a symbol of the vitality of the International Society of Social Defence, as well as showing the fertility of a genuine «penal philosophy» demonstrated by the new social defence since as far back as 1947. The theme of the Congress prompted comments and debates and tackled the problem of man at odds with the megalopolis, such as marginalization and the process of criminalization, with regard to which the town assumes specifically the role of privileged reference-point.

205. MALFUNCTIONS IN THE PENAL PROCESS AND THE DEFENCE OF SOCIETY: INTERIM MEASURES
Disfunzioni del processo penale e difesa della società: i provvedimenti provvisori
Proceedings of the Study Conference held at Catania, 30th April-2nd May 1982 No. 14, Collection of Study Conferences «Enrico de Nicola - Current Problems Criminal Law and Procedure»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1983 - XVIII 322 pages
 
PRESENTATION
With the constant prolongation of the time taken by criminal proceedings, interim measures – remand in custody, other restrictions of personal liberty of various kinds, interim application of supplementary penalties or security measures, arrest and detention – are assuming the guise of real anticipatory sanctions. Thus, criminal proceedings, as an instrument, is becoming, if not the objective, the main preoccupation. Roles are being reversed and, paradoxically, Criminal Procedural Law is taking the place of Criminal Law in the fulfilment of the repressive role. But a criminal process which is being transformed into an anticipatory sanction is a phenomenon of pure authoritarianism and thus remains extraneous to Criminal Procedural Law, regressing to simple procedure, a mere series of formalities insensitive to every sort of value-standard. Consequently, there is an increasingly urgent need for radical changes of structure and approach.

PRESENTATION
Industrial democracy and shareholders’ (or members’) democracy are two important themes in Labour Law and Company Law which the European Communities have been striving to tackle for many years despite the resistance put up by a number of Member-States. Among the most important manifestations of EEC initiatives have been the various Draft Fifth Directives on the structure of limited companies and workers participation, giving rise to the controversial question of co-partnership in management, and the recent Draft Directive on provision of information and consultation with workers employed in multi-national undertakings («Vredeling»). The studies collected here analyse the
problems arising from these Community initiatives, putting forwards also the implications for Italian Law in the broad perspective of the development of
industrial relations and Company Law.

PRESENTATION
The Conference, whose Proceedings are collected in this Volume, examined the juridical situation which arose in the Member-States of the EEC as a result of the Rome Convention of 19th June 1980 on Conflicts of Laws in the field of Contract. This Convention, considered by many as a «natural complement» to the 1968 Brussels Convention on jurisdiction and the execution of judgements, has also an important meaning as the «entry-card» to that «common juridical space» whose need is felt by the EEC Member-States and internationalists of other countries as the background for a developing process of European integration.

PRESENTATION
Between the second half of the Nineteenth Century and the start of the Twentieth, students of ancient laws and institutions, and in particular the Romanists, have fulfilled a decisive role not only within the confines of their disciplines but also in laying down the bases for a sociological (and anthropological) consideration of the law. The contributions collected in this Volume aim to highlight some of the complex relationships in this period linking the historical-juridical tradition of Europe, as it emerges from the crisis of the German school, and the formation of an interpretation of the law in a sociological and anthropological key. In fact they analyse these relationships in various cultural contexts (e.g. France, England, Germany) and focus on the rise of the theory of «living law». Finally, they endeavour to answer a question which is to be found today in various disciplines: to what extent may the instruments of research and interpretation worked out in that period be used today, and what methods of analysis may be elaborated through reference to that example, which was historically so fertile, of interdisciplinary co-operation between scholars of law, sociologists and anthropologists.

210. SOCIAL-JURIDICAL ASPECTS OF FAMILY-PLANNING IN CERTAIN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES AND ELSEWHERE
Aspetti socio-giuridici del family-planning in alcuni paesi europei ed extra-europei
Edited by Vera Segre and Nella Gridelli Velicogna
A CNPDS research study undertaken with the support of the International
National Research Council
No. 3, Collection «Studies and Research in Sociology of Law»
Ed. Giuffrè - Milan - 1983
 
PRESENTATION
This Volume collects together 20 essays, which examine the evolution of family-planning in various European and other countries, from the sociological-juridical standpoint. From the comparison, made even more difficult by the lack of homogeneity of the data, one can see how problems of protecting the family children and working women are deeply felt, not only in public opinion but on the legislative plane, albeit to varying degrees according to the particular social-political moment in which the country being studied finds itself, this makes a comparison with the position in Italy today especially useful.
