Abstract

The paper examines the sentences n. 32 and n. 33 of 2021 of the Constitutional Court trying to reconstruct the reasons that led the Judge of the Laws to declare the issues raised inadmissible. This analysis is inserted in the context of the relations between the Court, legislator and judges, within which each of these subjects plays its part. In particular, the paper focuses on the child’s right to emotional and relational identity and on the extent of the warning addressed by the Court to the legislator. The reader’s attention is then drawn to the indications given by the Judge of the Laws regarding a possible change in the legislation on adoption. The paper concludes with the examination of some recent jurisprudential developments both of the Court of Cassation, both of the Constitutional Court itself, and of the Court of Justice of the European Union. In this complex game of parts, only the legislator is missing, who has the task of rationalizing the “openingsµ of jurisprudence
