Co-operative Law has a long tradition in European countries, like the Industrial and Provident Act in the United Kingdom in1852 or the Prussian Co-operatives Act in 1867. The European Union was no born to create a common law but to remove restrictions on the freedom of establishment. In 2003 the Statute for a European Co-operative Society was approved, but harmonization of European co-operative legislation was never carried out, not even for its most importante distinctive elements. In 2012 the European Commission presented a report about the application of the SCE Statute showing that the SCE Regulation has had relatively little success. The differences between the different legal systems are considerable, both in forma and in content. European Commission expressed its intention not to carry out the harmonization of the European co-operative legislation directly, but to support the harmonization proposals that the co-operative sector presented to it. El derecho cooperativo tiene una larga tradición en los países europeos, desde la Industrial and Provident Act de 1952 en Reino Unido o la Ley prusiana de cooperativas de 1867. La Unión Europea no nació para crear un derecho común sino para surprimir las restricciones a la libertad de establecimiento. In 2003 se aprobó el Estatuto de la Sociedad Cooperativa Europea, pero nunca se ha llevado a cabo una armonización de la legislación cooperativa en Europa, ni siquiera en relación con sus elementos más característicos. En 2012, la Comisión Europea presentó un informe sobre la aplicación del Estatuto de la SCE que mostraba que esta regulación había tenido relativamente poco éxito. Las diferencias entre los diferentes sistemas legales son considerables, tanto formalmente como por su contenido. La Comisión Europea ya manifestó su intención de no llevar a cabo la armonización de la legislación cooperativa europea directamente, pero sí apoyar las propuestas de armonización presentadas por el sector cooperativo.

L'indagine è dedicata all'esame della disciplina delle società a partecipazione pubblica ed, in particolare, delle società c.d. "legali", muovendo in prima battuta dall'interrogativo relativo alla rilevanza, a fini "qualificatori", dell'interesse pubblico quale profilo ordinante dell'azionariato pubblico da un punto di vista "politico-economico" – e dunque quale dato di rilevanza meta-postiva – ovvero quale elemento di qualificazione della fattispecie, in senso proprio, delle società medesime. Le riflessioni che ne seguono si sviluppano, in primo luogo, tenendo conto del progressivo affievolimento, nel nostro ordinamento, della distinzione tra "pubblico" e "privato" quali "insiemi regole" il cui presupposto di applicazione è da ravvisare nella "qualità" e nella natura del soggetto agente nei rapporti di diritto privato. Previa analisi diacronica della traiettoria seguita dal legislatore in materia di società pubbliche e previa illustrazione del panorama normativo odierno delle società a statuto singolare, l'indagine si sofferma (i) dapprima, sulla esposizione, in chiave critica, dell'orientamento caratteristico della giurisprudenza e della dottrina amministrativa, nelle quali è invalsa – ai fini dell'individuazione della disciplina applicabile – la tendenza a riqualificare le società di che trattasi, con assimilazione di esse agli enti pubblici; e (ii) in un secondo momento, ferma la ritenuta non omologabilità delle richiamate tesi "riqualificatorie", si è ritenuto di poter individuare il proprium delle c.d. società legali, a fattispecie esclusiva, negli effetti determinati dalla costituzione legale, da intendere quale sottrazione alla disponibilità delle parti della libera attuazione del programma associativo, nella quale sottrazione è dato ravvisare - anche per effetto dell'interpretazione analogica dell'art. 2451 cod. civ. - l'interesse pubblico sotteso alla costituzione della società medesima. Interesse, questo, al quale deve conformarsi, in termini di coerenza e congruità, in concreto, l'attività sociale e, dunque, l'interpretazione della disciplina di diritto comune societario. ; This PhD thesis deals with the examination of rules regarding State-owned companies, especially the so-called "società legali", i.e. companies which specific statute is entirely (or in part) codified and regulated (for that company) by the Legislator or the Government. The starting point of the enquire is the question about the legal nature of these companies, since their qualification from a politic and economic point of view is important to understand if they have to follow or not special laws. In this framework, the identification of public interest for public shareholders is a decisive element. Reflections follow on the gradual fading of the distinction between "public law" and "private law" as rules whose application does depends on the "quality" and legal nature of the agent. After a diachronic analysis both of the historical evolution of State-owned companies which statute has been regulated by laws, and of legislative and regulatory framework of nowadays State-owned companies, the enquire focuses on jurisprudence and doctrine, underlining the difference between the thought of public and commercial law scholars. In particular, while public law scholars developed the tendency to re-qualify companies assimilating them to public authorities/public bodies, from the private law point of view there is the awareness that this assimilation is not approvable, since the core of the problem lies in the effects produced by the legal set of norms regulating the statute of the State-owned companies, to be understood as a subtraction to shareholders (both public and private ones) of free implementation of the company "programmed activity" as the result of the predominance of public interest, with which the company has to comply. ; Dottorato di ricerca in Diritto ed economia: interessi rilevanti e tutele (XXIV ciclo)

Hauptbeschreibung The contributions of this volume discuss concepts, notions, and transitions of nineteenth century international law. More specifically the questions focus on: On which premises was the juridical discipline constructed, what were the relations to other juridical, and non-juridical fields of knowledge? How did European nineteenth century international lawyers build a new legal science to be spread worldwide?
