The Review publishes original papers covering a large array of topics in Law, general theory of Law and multidisciplinary studies i.e. ethic issue, legal aspect of technology etc. The Review aims to provide also a forum which facilitates the development of the legal aspects – especially in any field of private law is welcomed - of the scientific research and innovation, at European and International levels. Particular attention will be paid on the rights, obligations and the legal relationships arising from the research and innovation activities, as well as on the contracts to carry out the scientific researches and to exploit the results either in academic, market contexts and human rights. The Review will study the legal discipline of the European and National policies and of the legal instruments to implement them, especially the funding programmes and Human rights.

Tribunale domestico nel Digesto?
The activity of a ‘domestic court’ within the Roman family is a matter of debate among scholars. After a brief summary of the different opinions expressed on the topic, a passage by Ulpian introduced in the Digest by the compilers of Justinian was considered. In it, some see a reference to the operation of the consilium domesticum, which, however, is neither stated nor implied in the jurist’s text.

WHAT CAN WE SAY LAW IS: DOES LINGUISTICS HELP IN THE ANALYSIS?
The historical-philosophical analysis of the concept of “honest” in correlation to "profit" is a valid tool for understanding how, from ancient times to today, it has not been (and is not) easy to bring the sanctioning system regarding fight against corruption in the public administration. The strengthening of prevention, as well as transparency, could limit the offensive content of the criminal offense, but the law alone is not sufficient to protect the needs of social protection and defense, in the absence of adoption of good practices experienced in everyday life..

Società di fatto e interessi familiari
The essay analyzes some hypotheses of coexistence between family-tyoe interests and specific interests of business management in its various forms (individual business, family business, company), noting, in particular, the importance of univocally distinguishing cases in which the business is managed individually, cases in which the company is managed jointly with the spouse and/or family members and cases in which the entrepreneur shares the management, with spouse and/or family members, in a substantial (and not even formal) way. This allows to identify the boundary between gratuitous acts arising from an exclusively family interest (i.e., a guarantee in favor of the entrepreneur spouse due to moral obligation), from formal (and not even susbstantial) gratuitous acts (guarantee in favor of the entrepreneur spouse as an act of co-management of business).

Il sistema successorio tra canoni costituzionali e regole europee
The essay analyzes, also in light of the innovations introduced by European Law (reg. EU 650/2012), the regulations concerning successions due to death, with particular attention to the civil institutions aimed at allowing the early succession of some legal relationships forming headed by the settlor, in compliance with the prohibition on succession agreements referred to in the art. 458 of the Italian Civil Code. Particular in-depth analysis is therefore dedicated to the study of the “cause of attribution”, which, for the purposes of early succession, must necessarily be characterized by the “non-pecuniary” interest of the settlor.

Le biobanche di ricerca pediatriche e l'seperienza dell'IRCCS Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesù
Solidarity and reciprocity take an essential role in providing freedom and responsibility in scientific and research proress. Implementing the reciprocity of the solidaristic purpose across the access to biological samples relieves ethical and legal questions, and may give rise to concerns in society, especially in the case of paediatric researches. For a paediatric biobank, the crucial for health and for the care of others, and, on the other hand, to protect the vulnerability of those who give their biological samples is indispensable. Regarding some aspects relating the regulatory level and data privacy regulation in paediatric research, differences in informed consents and in recruitment procedures should be focused in order to strength the improvement of personalized medicine. Additionally, consent digitization process has opened up a further path of information interoperability, to be checked and monitored for assuring the compliance with the patient’s desire.

Landscaping Living Labs for collaborative research
Living Labs represent interesting flexible ecosystems for foster open innovation as they implement infrastructures where stakeholders are involved to create seamless interaction and collaborative settings. This paper firstly describes the concept and architecture of the Living Labs then it focuses on the main models and state-of-the art methodologies. Against this background selected legal issues (i.e. Intellectual property rights and data protection) will be analysed and a focus on contractual terms will be provided. The theoretical study will make use of the practical experience of the “LIVINGAGRO project” to address the effective dimension and implementation of Living Labs.
