- G. RAGONE, Giudicare l’incertezza: il caso della Corte di Giustizia dell’Unione Europea, in Biolaw Journal, n. 2/2024, pp. 41-57 (ISSN 2284-4503). Abstract: The contribution aims to analyze the jurisprudence of the CJUE in the scientific-technical field. The thesis put forward is that the CJEU usually does not seek elements or data on its own to assess the merits of the scientific opinion challenged, preferring to operate an external review of the legitimacy of the contested act that is based on that opinion, aimed at excluding that there has been excess of power on the part of those who adopted it. And yet, it is also shown how in the jurisprudence of Luxembourg there is nevertheless a “scientific” protagonism when it is necessary to offer interpretation to dubious concepts.
- S. VALAGUZZA (ed.), Esplorazioni di diritto dell’ambiente, Editoriale Scientifica, 2024 (ISBN 978-12-5976-873-5). Abstract: What is the current direction of environmental law? What new harmony will reunite us with the Planet? How will science help us? This volume offers some answers to these and other questions, enclosing real “explorations,” that is, thematic inquiries into certain aspects inherent in environmental law that are of particular interest because of their topicality.

- L. VIOLINI, Vincoli costituzionali al bilancio e spese emergenziali. Il BVerfG impone la linea del rigore, in Quaderni Costituzionali, n. 1/2024, (ISBN 978-88-15-42349-8). Abstract: The article comments on a decision of the German Federal Constitutional Court in which it states that the energy and climate crisis is certainly present but is not so serious and exceptional as to justify intervention under Section 109(3) GG.
