    City
    The movement for the urban commons in Southern Italian cities has been facing the increasing touristification of the historic centres, a process of value extraction built on the character of ‘authenticity’ and ‘marginality’ of the urban poor’s living to the external gaze. In this resistance, activists encountered the law both as a counter-hegemonic tool exploited to assert their claims over the urban space and as a governmental technique deployed by the public administration to partially tame their political praxis into bureaucratic frameworks. The law has thus been used both to shelter the marginalised from the effects of touristification and as a means to govern urban space by extracting value from urban poverty. This analysis highlights how movements opposing the commodification of urban poverty could gain political strength from creatively exploiting legal tools, which would allow them to protect the interests of the poor and achieve wealth distribution. It also stresses how urban studies would benefit from integrating the perspective of critical legal studies that considers the law as a battleground for social conflict.

    Oñati Socio-Legal Series ~ Empirical research with judicial officers and courts: Methods and practices
    This article explores the relationship between law and time in the context of ecological and climate change. It argues that bringing a focus on time into legal thought and practice is an important move for decentering the individual subject as conventionally conceived and for developing legal tools capable of recognising networks, ties and assemblages, and challenging the anthropocentric character of modern law. It frames ecological and climate change as a background for rethinking a number of fundamental legal forms as ways in which modern law can deal simultaneously with different temporalities – the present, an intergenerational time and a planetary time.

    Sociologia del diritto
    In questo contributo si introduce un approccio temporale al diritto come potenzialmente innovativo per la teoria e la pratica giuridica. Si sostiene che un’analisi del rapporto tra diritto e tempo sia cruciale per attuare un decentramento del soggetto convenzionalmente inteso nel diritto moder no occidentale e per concepire strumenti giuridici in grado di riconoscere reti, legami e assemblaggi. L’attuale fase di cambiamento climatico e crisi ecologica viene interpretata come un contesto in cui è possibile ripensare le forme giuridiche fondamentali del diritto moderno, e del diritto privato in particolare, per consentire l’ingresso di temporalità non lineari e non umane nel pensiero e nella tecnica giuridica.
