Rights-based approaches to environmental protection are on the increase as the public become more aware of both the environment around them and of their other civil and political rights. Whilst methods for combining environmental protection and rights-based regulation still allude to a large conflict of anthropocentric versus ecocentric interests, one approach increasingly stands out as a potential effective solution: ‘procedural rights’. More commonly, this concerns rights to be heard, rights to information, to participation and the right of access to justice. Such perspectives are increasingly finding purchase within international environmental agendas, indeed, several national jurisdictions have progressed from mere principles into more formal ‘hard law’. In order to follow this progression and to assess the influence of international procedural rights in national jurisdictions, this article looks in particular at the environmental law of Finland as an example, and seeks to illustrate the formation of one facet of internationally accepted procedural rights: that of public participation, within national environmental regulation.

This article analyzes the problems of implementation of the right of access to justice for consideration of the criminal procedure dispute in accordance with the Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. The author carefully examines the legislation of the countries of post-Soviet space on filing a complaint against actions (omissions), as well as decisions of the prosecuting agency in pretrial proceedings. The subject of this research is the norms of the Russian and foreign legislation that regulate the right of access to justice in criminal proceedings. The object is the legal relations arising in the context of implementation of the right of access to justice. The article employs the universal systemic method of cognition; comparative-legal, formal-legal, and statistical methods; as well as logical analysis of the normative legal acts. It is indicated that restriction of the access to justice for consideration of the criminal procedure dispute in accordance with the Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation is also established by the practice developed in law enforcement for evaluation of the complaint prior to its consideration involving  the parties with the possibility of making a decision on whether to remit or reject the complaint in the absence of legislatively specified grounds, which directly affects the number of addressed complaints. The conclusion is made on the need to specify the grounds for remitting the complaint of an applicant filed in accordance with the Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, for the purpose of excluding the possibility of decision made by the court that is not based on the law on remitting or rejecting the complaint for consideration (the Article 125 of Code of Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation).

Todo sistema institucional legítimo requiere, hoy en día, desde una perspectiva democrática, como garantía de buen gobierno, en primer lugar, un compromiso de apertura y transparencia de sus órganos, que disponga a los mismos para hacer accesible al público el ejercicio de sus funciones; y, en segundo lugar, el reconocimiento de los medios necesarios que permitan el desarrollo de las iniciativas ciudadanas destinadas a la obtención de la información que estimen oportuno solicitar a aquéllos. Así, además de la creación de un espacio efectivo de libertad, que se expresa en la dimensión subjetiva del derecho, no es menos importante la vertiente objetiva que el mismo lleva aparejada, ya que, mediante su realización, se pretende alcanzar la efectiva limitación y control del ejercicio del poder público por parte de las instituciones. Por todo ello, el Art. 15.3 TFEU, de forma conjunta con el Art. 42 de la Carta de los Derechos Fundamentales de las UE reconoce el derecho de los ciudadanos a acceder a los documentos en poder de las instituciones, órganos y organismos de la Unión. En este trabajo se analiza la restringida significación alcanzada por tan trascendental derecho, que pone a prueba la sinceridad de los objetivos apuntados.All legitimate institutional system requires, today, from a democratic perspective, as a guarantee of good governance, first, a commitment to openness and transparency of its organs, that allows for the exercise of its functions accessible to the public, and second, the recognition of the means necessary to enable the development of citizens’ initiatives aimed at obtaining the information they deem appropriate to request. So, in addition to creating an effective area of freedom, which is expressed in the subject dimension of the right, it is no less important the objective aspect that it entails, because, by its realization is to achieve an effective limitation and control the exercise of public power by the European institutions. Therefore, Article 15.3 TFEU, in conjunction with Article 42 EUCFR recognizes the citizens’ right of access to documents held by the EU institutions. In this paper the significance of the right is analyzed, in order to test the sincerity of the objectives stated in the Treaties.

With Judgment No. 238/2014, the Italian Constitutional Court (hereinafter Court) quashed the Italian legislation setting out the obligation to comply with the sections of the 2012 decision of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in Jurisdictional Immunities of the State (Germany v. Italy; Greece intervening) (Jurisdictional Immunities or Germany v. Italy) that uphold the rule of sovereign immunity with respect to compensation claims in Italian courts based on grave breaches of human rights, including—in the first place—the commission of war crimes and crimes against humanity. The Court found the legislation to be incompatible with Articles 2 and 24 of the Italian Constitution, which secure the protection of inviolable human rights and the right of access to justice (operative paras. 1, 2).

The article states that today the issues of the role (purpose) of criminal law, the structure of criminal law knowledge remain debatable. And at this time, questions arise: whose interests are protected by criminal law, is it able to ensure social justice, including the proportionality of the responsibility of the individual and the state for criminally illegal actions? The purpose of the article is to comprehend the problems of criminal law knowledge about the phenomena that shape the purpose of criminal law as a fair regulator of public relations, aimed primarily at restoring social justice for the victim, suspect (accused), society and the state, the proportionality of punishment and states for criminally illegal acts. The concepts of “crime” and “punishment” are discussed in science. As a result, there is no increase in knowledge, but an increase in its volume due to new definitions of existing criminal law phenomena. It is stated that the science of criminal law has not been able to explain the need for the concept of criminal law, as the role and name of this area is leveled to the framework terminology, which currently contains the categories of crime and punishment. Sometimes it is not even unreasonable to think that criminal law as an independent and meaningful concept does not exist or has not yet appeared. There was a custom to characterize this right as something derived from the main and most important branches of law, the criminal law of the rules of subsidiary and ancillary nature. Scholars do not consider criminal law, for example, as the right to self-defense. Although the right to self-defense is paramount and must first be guaranteed to a person who is almost always left alone with the offender, it is the least represented in law, developed in practice and available to criminal law subjects. Today, for example, there are no clear rules for the necessary protection of property rights or human freedoms. It is concluded that the science of criminal law should develop knowledge that will reveal not only the content of the subject of this branch of law, but will focus it on new properties to determine the illegality of acts and their consequences, exclude the possibility of using its means by legal entities against each other.
