Abstract

Moving from the Cappato Case, the Paper analyses the Constitutional Court’s Ordinance n. 207/2018 and Sentence n. 242/2019. The meaning of the «new form of collaboration» between judicial power and legislative one, invoked by the Ordinance n. 207, will be explained also taking in consideration the general Italian Biojuridical framework. The proactive role of individuals and lawyers, as well as the role of the courts as collectors of political instances, will be focused. Finally the Paper recalls the concept of «Diarchy» with the aim to describe the necessary institutional collaboration between legislative and judicial power in the issue-area of fundamental rights.
