Study - La libertà di impresa, una prospettiva di diritto comparato - Italia - 17-07-2024

Questo studio fa parte di un progetto più ampio, il cui scopo è quello di analizzare, nella prospettiva del diritto comparato, la libertà d'impresa in diversi ordinamenti giuridici. Dopo una breve introduzione storica, nonché la spiegazione della normativa e della giurisprudenza applicabili, vengono esaminati il contenuto, i limiti e la possibile evoluzione di tale libertà. Il presente studio è dedicato alla libertà di impresa nell'ordinamento giuridico italiano. Una prima parte dello studio sarà dedicata all’affermazione del diritto alla libertà di impresa e all’approfondimento della portata semantica di tale locuzione rispetto a quella di libertà di iniziativa economica sancita dalla Costituzione. Verranno in particolare messi in luce i limiti imposti all’esercizio della libertà di impresa dall’esigenza di contemperare altri interessi, prevalentemente di rilevanza pubblicistica, ritenuti meritevoli di maggior tutela, definendo i margini di intervento pubblico che possono comprimerne l’esercizio. Seguirà l’individuazione e l’esegesi delle fonti normative che contemplano, attraverso un’articolazione puntuale, le modalità di esercizio del diritto alla libertà di impresa, nonché una selezione delle principali pronunce della Corte costituzionale, della Corte di Cassazione, dal Consiglio di Stato, nonché dei giudici di merito, che ne hanno definito e delimitato la portata in sede di interpretazione giurisprudenziale. Un’ultima parte dell’indagine sarà poi rivolta all’individuazione delle sfide che l’esercizio del diritto della libertà di impresa pone all’ordinamento giuridico, con particolare attenzione alle tematiche connesse alle diverse possibili concezioni del diritto alla libertà di impresa e ai margini di intervento pubblico in economia rispetto a un approccio ispirato a un più caratterizzato liberismo economico. In conclusione verranno formulate alcune considerazioni di sintesi e delineate eventuali prospettive de jure condendo. Source : © European Union, 2024 - EP

Briefing - Strategic Agenda 2024-2029: Continuity or paradigm shift? - 17-07-2024

The EU's leaders took two crucial decisions at their summit on 27 June to set the framework for the new institutional cycle: one on high-level appointments, the other on the Union's political priorities for the next 5 years, the Strategic Agenda 2024-2029. Since the adoption of the previous edition of the EU's long-term priorities in 2019, the EU has had to face major crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the energy crisis, and the change in the security environment following Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. Are these global challenges reflected in the EU's new long-term political priorities or has the list of political orientations remained unchanged? Is the new Strategic Agenda more of a continuation or does it constitute a real shift? To answer these questions, this briefing examines the new Strategic Agenda, outlining its content, developments in its substance during the adoption process, and similarities and differences with the political priorities set in the previous institutional cycles. The findings of the analysis (see the table in the Annex) show that the Strategic Agenda 2024-2029 constitutes an important shift in the EU's political priorities compared with the previous Strategic Agenda, but that elements of continuity remain quite apparent nevertheless. The most obvious changes are the significance of security and defence, the importance granted to enlargement, the addition of new elements on EU competitiveness, and the salience of democracy (within the Union and in relations with third countries), which is a headline priority for the first time. Another noteworthy development is that less attention is paid to climate and environmental issues, even if some points were introduced during the drafting process. At the same time, there is a substantial degree of continuity with the Strategic Agenda 2019-2024. Less than 20 % of the policy aspects are completely new, even though the length of the Strategic Agenda document has increased by 25 %. This observation tends to indicate that the previous EU priorities remain relevant and that a reshaping of the Agenda (rather than starting from scratch) was considered sufficient. Interestingly, many of the elements added seem to be a reiteration of policy issues addressed by the European Council in its conclusions over the last 5 years. Thus, the document appears to be a collection of previously agreed positions rather than a new set of guidelines. While the impact of Russia's war against Ukraine and the change in the geopolitical context have fed into the new Strategic Agenda, other major issues of recent years such as health and energy are less explicitly referred to than could have been expected considering the severity of the crises with which the EU has been confronted.
