Professor Emanuele Boscolo speaker at the Constitutional Court for the Consulta’s 70th anniversary, with a contribution to the conference on the digital volumes dedicated to judgments of constitutional illegitimacy.

On Thursday 23 and Friday 24 April, Professor Emanuele Boscolo, the Rector’s Delegate for Building and Procurement and Full Professor of Administrative and Public Law at the Department of Law, Economics and Cultures of the University of Insubria, was invited to give a talk at the Constitutional Court on the occasion of the conference presenting the digital volumes “70 years of constitutional case law”.

The conference was held in the Salone Belvedere of Palazzo della Consulta in Rome, as part of the celebrations for the 70th anniversary of the Constitutional Court. 
At the centre of the conference was the presentation of the 15 digital volumes published by Giuffrè Francis Lefebvre and edited by the judges of the current panel of the Constitutional Court: a systematic and annotated work bringing together 4,124 judgments of constitutional illegitimacy, issued between 1956 and 2025, which have marked the evolution of Italian constitutional law.

Professor Boscolo spoke on Friday 24 April, together with the President Emeritus of the Constitutional Court, Giancarlo Coraggio, in the session dedicated to the tenth volume, “Landscape, spatial planning and cultural heritage”, introduced by Constitutional Court Judge Maria Alessandra Sandulli. 

The conference was attended by Presidents, Vice-Presidents and emeritus judges of the Court, together with distinguished academics, who were invited to discuss the volumes presented by the constitutional judges who edited them. The second day, during which Professor Boscolo spoke, was dedicated to the volumes on “Private property, business and market law”, “Public finance”, “Public administration”, “Environmental protection”, “Landscape, spatial planning and cultural heritage”, “Regional litigation”, “Local authority litigation” and “Judicial guarantees”.

At the end of the proceedings, the President of the Constitutional Court, Giovanni Amoroso, thanked the judges for producing the work and the thirty speakers at the conference for their contribution to retracing the history of constitutional case law.
