I paradossi della democrazia protetta
Abstract
The “defensive democracy” may be defined as the set of rules of a democratic system that forbids and punishes political behavior of certain movements, or illiberal parties, considered threatening the constitution. The “defensive democracy” institutional model was first theoretically and philosophically, then technically and legally analyzed through the comparison of four different legal systems belonging to Turkey, Spain, Germany and Italy. Theoretically, “defensive democracy” may be historically rooted in Hobbes' doctrine, but its more complete definition may be found in the XX century, as a firm reaction against the totalitarianism.
