The essay, taking the cue from the recent regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2092 on the so-called democratic conditionality mechanism and a brief reconstruction of the concept of ‘rule of law’ in Western legal culture, focuses on the processes of «democratic backsliding» ongoing in some Member States. Then, it questions the concrete effectiveness of the remedies currently envisaged at European level, as well as the possible alternatives, in a ‘de iure condendo’ perspective.
L’articolo, traendo spunto dal recente regolamento (UE, Euratom) 2020/2092 sul c.d. meccanismo di condizionalità finanziaria e da una sintetica ricostruzione del concetto di rule of law nella cultura giuridica occidentale, esamina in chiave comparatistica i processi di «democratic backsliding» tuttora in corso in alcuni Stati membri, per poi interrogarsi sulla concreta efficacia dei rimedi attualmente previsti a livello europeo, nonché sulle possibili alternative in prospettiva de iure condendo.

The essay, taking the cue from the recent regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2092 on the so-called democratic conditionality mechanism and a brief reconstruction of the concept of ‘rule of law’ in Western legal culture, focuses on the processes of «democratic backsliding» ongoing in some Member States. Then, it questions the concrete effectiveness of the remedies currently envisaged at European level, as well as the possible alternatives, in a ‘de iure condendo’ perspective.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
