Sommario/riassunto

La monografia scientifica «Class Action. Dalla Comparazione giuridica alla formazione del giurista: un caleidoscopio per nuove prospettive» propone una ricostruzione in chiave storico-comparatistica degli strumenti di tutela aggregata di interessi superindividuali, assumendo una prospettiva multifattoriale che tiene anche conto di elementi extra-giuridici, quali i fattori socio-culturali ed economici. L’A. si interroga sulle modalità operative dei diversi fenomeni che vengono impropriamente qualificati come “class action” nel mondo con l’obiettivo di attuare una reale, consapevole e critica mise en oeuvre dello strumento “azione di classe” anche in Italia, interessata dalla recentissima riforma introdotta dalla Legge 12 aprile 2019, n. 31. Il tema della Class Action, inoltre, si pone quale imprescindibile ed ineliminabile ponte culturale e accademico per un proficuo dialogo tra sistemi giuridici da incentivare attraverso la formazione del giurista e il dibattito nelle aule universitarie.

Sommario/riassunto

How could an undemocratic regime manage to stabilise Russia? What is Putin’s success formula? What are the symbolic and discursive underpinnings of Russia’s new stability? Many outside observers of Russia regarded the authoritarian tendencies during the Putin presidency as a retreat from, or even the end of, democratisation. Rather than attempting to explain why Russia did not follow the trajectory of democratic transformation, this book aims to attain an understanding of the stabilisation process during Putin’s tenure as president. Proceeding from the assumption that the stability created under Putin is multi-layered, the authors attempt to uncover the underpinnings of the new equilibrium, inquiring especially about the changes and fixations that occurred in the discourses on political and national identity. In doing so, the authors analyse the trajectories of the past years from the traditional perspective of transitology as well as through the lens of post-structuralist discourse theory. The two approaches are seen as complementary, with the latter focusing less on the end point of transition than on the nature of the mechanisms that stabilise the current regime. The book therefore focuses on how nationalism became an increasingly important tool in political discourse and how it affected political identity. “Sovereign democracy” is seen by



many contributors as the most explicit manifestation of a newfound post-Soviet identity drawing on nationalist ideas, while simultaneously appeasing most sectors of the Russian political spectrum.

"The authors should be congratulated for producing a volume that successfully challenges much of the outdated Western thinking on the development of post-Soviet Russian politics." Political Studies Review

"On the whole, the multitude of contributions draw a facet-rich portrait of the Russian identity and of the dependencies between political identity construction and the resulting stability of the political system." Portal für Politikwissenschaft
