Edited by Barbara Faedda Based on a division of powers and the supremacy of a constitution, the rule of law is not invulnerable, as was demonstrated in the violent attack against the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. It can be used but also abused; it can be respected or exploited, exalted or undermined. It can even arouse skepticism, because it is not always effective against the realities of political life. In a world facing social division, polarization, poverty, climate change, and pandemics, it is crucial to understand the roles of those who manage, control, or are touched by the rule of law. This book’s primary goal is to showcase the variety of perspectives, cases, and methodologies of the people and institutions that bring a range of expertise to bear in many fields. The essays here – which encompass various geographic areas and social groups, as well as several historical periods – address racism, misinformation, human rights, the status of women, the treatment of indigenous peoples, the environment, and more. The rule of law is not merely a set of principles that guarantee a just society. It must be more than a tool in the hands of legal experts; it cannot be a concept out of the reach of ordinary people. It is essential that every citizen feel a clear responsibility to protect and promote the rule of law, to denounce inequalities and oppose imbalances of power, if the common goal is to enjoy freedom, democracy, and justice for all. Il violento attacco al Campidoglio degli Stati Uniti del 6 gennaio 2021 ha dimostrato chiaramente che lo Stato di diritto, il rule of law, non è affatto invulnerabile. Può essere usato e abusato, rispettato o sfruttato, esaltato o minato, e spesso fatto oggetto di scetticismo perché ritenuto del tutto inefficace a garantire giustizia, equità ed eguaglianza sociale. In un mondo che fronteggia divisioni, polarizzazioni, povertà, cambiamenti climatici e pandemie, è cruciale comprendere i ruoli dei protagonisti del rule of law. L’obiettivo principale del volume è infatti mostrare la varietà di prospettive, casi ed esperienze attraverso la voce di esperti, studiosi e protagonisti. I saggi fanno riferimento a differenti aree geografiche, gruppi sociali e periodi storici, affrontando questioni cruciali come il razzismo, la disinformazione, i diritti umani, la condizione femminile, l’immigrazione, l’ambiente e i popoli indigeni. 32 autori mostrano che non possiamo più permetterci di pensare al rule of law come a un concetto astratto, a un insieme di principi lontani dalla vita quotidiana, o più semplicemente come a uno strumento tecnico nelle sole mani di giuristi. È essenziale che ogni cittadino senta chiara la responsabilità di proteggere e promuovere il rule of law, per denunciare le disuguaglianze e opporsi agli squilibri di potere, se libertà, democrazia e giustizia per tutti sono l’obiettivo comune.

The PhD in Legality, Political Cultures and Democracy, established in 2019 in implementation of the development plan of the Department of Political Science, obtained from MIUR the qualification as International Innovative Doctorate thanks to the presence of specific agreements with Mid Sweden University (Sundsvall, Sweden), Lomonosov University (Moscow, Russian Federation) and Paris 8 University (Paris, France), and the qualification as Interdisciplinary Innovative Doctorate thanks to the presence in the Scientific Board of scholars belonging to different scientific areas. During the first two years PhD candidates are expected to attend curricular teaching activities in Perugia and spend a research period abroad of at least one semester. A good knowledge of Italian and English languages is required. Five scholarships are available every year, two of which are reserved for international candidates. The PhD program includes three curricula, characterized by interdisciplinarity:

Ethical issues in scientific research are very complex, in the same manner as they are delicate. In most of the cases, the researcher needs to collect data from people, in unknown conditions and circumstances with huge social, ethnical, cultural, religious and gender pressure. The issue of ethics in scientific research especially in gaining academic titles is primarily a matter of social practice. We are all witnessing that many research papers are written for scientific titles, and they’re based on second and third hand resources, without any first hand research. 2/3 of Master and Doctoral candidates have gathered data from the projects where they did not participate; they have collected and used data from other known and unknown researchers. In Macedonia, the government has established a mechanism for saving and checking master and doctoral papers from 2012 (www. plagijati. com. m). This presents a good opportunity for checking the integrity and validity of the academic papers. Th...
