- Los drones a la luz del Derecho Internacional Humanitario (DIH)(Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Cocchini, A. (Andrea); Bermejo-García, R. (Romualdo)Desde hace décadas se utilizan los drones como un instrumento más para ejecutar operaciones de diverso tipo que, incluso, pueden implicar el uso de la fuerza letal. Con frecuencia, el recurso a los drones armados ha sido criticado por supuestas violaciones del Derecho internacional humanitario (DIH). El presente estudio analiza, por tanto, el recurso a unas armas tan criticadas como los drones a la luz, en particular, de los principios básicos del DIH de precaución, distinción y proporcionalidad. El objetivo es demostrar que, pese a su mala fama atribuida por los medios de comunicación, los drones armados respetan el DIH precisamente en atención a los tres principios mencionados.
- Cambio climático y responsabilidad empresarial: análisis del papel de las empresas para alcanzar los objetivos del Acuerdo de París(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Iglesias-Márquez, D. (Daniel)The main objective of this article is to explore the climate responsibilities of corporations, in order to achieve the objectives established in the Paris Agreement and to ensure the necessary conditions for the enjoyment of human rights. On the one hand, this paper examines the role of corporations in the international climate change regime. On the other hand, it analyses some international soft law instruments that contain or clarify climate standards applicable to business operations or, failing that, recognize the role of corporations in the fight against climate change from a human rights perspective.

- La presencia de las Naciones Unidas en Colombia. La cooperación al desarrollo y la preocupación por los Derechos Humanos(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Presta-Novello, D. (Déborah)The interest of the United Nations Organization in contributing to a more balanced development of the country, as well as the human rights situation in Colombia has been motivated by the reality of an armed conflict that has been active for decades and that has conditioned largely the history of the country. Relations between the two actors have remained constant, as well as the Organization’s concern for systematic violations of human rights, both in the context of the conflict and during the three years that have elapsed after the signing of the Peace Agreement with the FARC-EP. Despite the advances in the recognition of the rights of victims, the road that remains to be done is long and directly threatens the implementation of said Agreement.
- Hacia la criminalidad climática: creación de una quinta categoría de crimen bajo el Estatuto de Roma para penalizar la agravación del cambio climático(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) de-Paor, R. (Risteard)The question of the establishment of an international environmental crime in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court has had a long, but ultimately fruitless, history. A common denominator in the thus far proposed crimes whether of ecocide by the International Law Commission or Polly Higgins, or variants thereof is their broadness and imprecision. As well as posing legal difficulties, this has been an insuperable stumbling block for State approval. In parallel, the planet’s climate has been deteriorating to the point that climate change has now become the gravest environmental and human rights issue facing humankind. There is a patent need to combat this global phenomenon through international criminal law. This article therefore proposes a narrow, precisely defined crime of climate change aggravation as a new fifth category of crime under the Rome Statute. Taking account of the past work on international environmental crime in the UN and doctrinal proposals, as well as current international environmental agreements, the new crime is a tailored proposal with the greatest chance of approval in the short time we have left to act.
- ¿Y para cuando el código de la navegación marítima? (¿O hemos perecido en el intento?)(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Cervell-Hortal, María-José; Gutiérrez-Espada, C. (Cesáreo)The Law of Maritime Navigation of 2014, which meant an ambitious reform of the Spanish Maritime Law, announced in its final provisions the future drafting of a Code of Maritime Navigation that would definitely clarify the main rules governing this subject. The Code has not been adopted yet. This article addresses the need for its approval, with special emphasis on the problems affecting the right of innocent passage through the territorial sea.
- La Unión Europea ante la emergencia climática(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Zambrano-González, K. (Karla)From its origins, the Member States of the European Union (EU) have demonstrated the need for strategic energy measures. As it did with the 1952 Coal and Steel Treaty and the 1957 Euratom Treaty, designing a strong economic area, although it was based on the promotion of a decadent and unsustainable energy. Today, we are facing an EU, which climate policy is far from the original one, with a plausible objective: to give priority to energy efficiency while making its own path through the international community, designing key, competitive and sustainable measures, contributing significantly to the new international climate regime under the Paris Agreement. However the adoption of the European Green Deal, will change the EU energy approach once again.
- La constitucionalidad de la LO 1/2014 relativa a la jurisdicción universal(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Vázquez-Serrano, I. (Irene)The Constitutional Court resolved at the end of 2018 the appeal of unconstitutionality that had been filed against Organic Law 1/2014 of modification of the universal jurisdiction. After an analysis of the grounds, material and formal, the court has declared the constitutionality of the reform as well as the existence of a constitutional model of extraterritorial application of the Spanish criminal jurisdiction.
- Observaciones de una amica curiae en el caso Al-Bashir ante la Corte Penal Internacional(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Gamarra-Chopo, Y. (Yolanda)This work exposes my experience as an amica curiae in the Al-Bashir case at the International Criminal Court (ICC). The submission of comments on issues of interest to the ICC Appeals Chamber was an excellent opportunity to reflect on different questions affecting contemporary international law, in particular: (i) the clash of sources between the Rome Statute and treaties and international customs on immunities; ii) the vertical cooperation required by the United Nations (UN) Security Council to all States with respect to the detention and delivery of Al-Bashir in accordance with article 89 of the Statute, and iii) international obligations arising from the Statute of Rome and Resolution 1593 (2005) of the UN Security Council and its obligations under other bilateral or multilateral conventions.
- La progresiva asimilación del fenómeno deportivo y de sus instituciones por el Derecho internacional(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2020) Iglesias-Velasco, A.J. (Alfonso J.)Sport has become a paradigm of globalization and it enjoys immense popularity. Their competitions are subject to specific rules of the game, regulations and organizations arising from the practical evolution and sponsored to a large extent by the Olympic Movement and by the International Federations of each sport. This article is dedicated to studying how the international legal system is shaping the development of the sports phenomenon, despite being a characteristic fruit of the strength of civil society. This is intended to assess the possible existence and / or need of a subsystem or sector of international law dedicated to this matter.
