La Normalizzazione della Prevenzione Eccezionale del Crimine Globale: Improvvisazione 'con una mano legata' in quattro tempi e finale sull’emerso diritto della prevenzione criminale negative

This chapter deals with the problem of the use of emergency power as an ordinary device to prevent the most disparate forms of global crime. The main thesis of the Author is that the recent globalised trend of such normalisation of emergency governance should be read as the evidence of a most profound crisis of the categories and structures of law and politics in the global era, capable of bringing dramatic practical consequences on the fundamental rights of global citizens. The Author then considers, also in a critical perspective, the possible justifications and limits of resorting to emergency powers to fight global crime and suggests a few short-term and long-term solutions to constrain the resort to such measures to strict necessity and to make them compliant with at least a fundamental nucleus of human rights and the principles required to protect them appropriately.
