"it is hard to imagine Giorgia Meloni will be persuaded to change her ways by the ARoLR’s at times critical, at times more conciliatory assessment, which mostly avoided directly pointing the finger at the ruling coalition’s responsibility in worsening the state of the #ruleoflaw"
✍️ In this DI Working Paper, @benedetta_lob assesses whether and how Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s autocratic playbook has been followed by Italian PM Giorgia Meloni during her mandate so far.

Writing in Italian was actually a serious challenge since I've never studied law at home😅, so special thanks to @mirianalanotte for patiently supporting me through the process🙏
In this note on case C-204/21, I highlight some interesting procedural aspects related to the defense of EU values vis-a-vis attacks against national judiciaries, and the interplay of instruments like Art 258, 267, 279 and 260 TFEU

That’s the new edition of @GAVClaw’s excellent ‘European Private International Law’ on my desk.
I’m especially pleased to see an early (first?) example of mainstreaming of #SLAPPs in PrIL textbooks (@benedetta_lob, @MagdalenaZabro1, you’ve been cited).
So glad to have been able to offer a small contribution to this important volume edited by the @AberdeenUniLaw centre for private intl law dream team! Looking forward to seeing it in print📖 @JustinBBarthet@PZivkovic_
Katarina Trimmings and I conclude the more theoretical part with our chapter on PrIL and feminist scholarship.
@Ruritanian starts discussion of civil and commercial matters with a chapter which should be read by anyone seeking to discern the meaning of damage in PrIL. 5/n
The choreographed return of @JosephMuscat_JM to European politics, complete with an outrageous attack on the courts, is a key test for @TheProgressives in a European Parliament election which should be about true democrats stemming the tide of autocracy.
