In-8, broché, couverture de parution (dos fendillé, mors fendus, ), viij, 555 p., qqs rousseurs. Édition originale de ce compte rendu intégral du procès, et la source principale sur le complot jacobin dit "de l'opéra" ou "Conspiration des poignards" visant à assassiner Bonaparte en octobre 1800, alors que celui-ci se rendait à l'opéra. Parmi les conspirateurs quatre d'entre eux furent condamnés à mort et exécutés le 30 janvier 1801: Aréna, frère du Barthélemy Aréna qui aurait levé un poignard sur Bonaparte le 19 brumaire, le sculpteur Ceracchi, le peintre Topino-Lebrun, élève de David, proche des "Égaux" et compagnon de route de Babeuf et Dominique Demerville, ancien secrétaire de Barère. Selon des études récentes, l'attentat aurait été à l'origine d'une manipulation policière, rendue possible par le concours du capitaine Jacques Harel, d'abord complice des conspirateurs avant d'être retourné par la police de Fouché. (Legrand, 'Babeuf et ses compagnons de route', p. 187). Dos fendillé, mors fendus. Qqs rousseurs

br. Basandosi sugli atti di un processo in cui una quindicina di anni fa un tribunale del Sud ha condannato diverse persone per associazione a delinquere di tipo mafioso, il libro analizza i meno appariscenti risvolti politici di una sentenza che altrimenti sarebbe archiviata tra gli ordinari procedimenti ex art. 416 bis del codice penale. Quel che potrebbe apparire come un caso di criminalità comune si rivela in realtà una vicenda eminentemente politica, non per il rango degli imputati bensì per la sorprendente decisione del tribunale di condannarli a risarcire lo Stato per la "mutilazione della sua sovranità". I giudici trasformano un ordinario processo antimafia in un esperimento di riparazione della sovranità, una nozione che storicamente si è costruita sulla sua incommensurabilità economica, sull'impossibilità cioè che come qualsiasi altro bene civile divenga oggetto di una valutazione monetaria nei termini del pregiudizio subito. Nell'intento di tutelare la ricchezza suprema dello Stato, i giudici del processo partoriscono una sentenza "suicida", il cui eccesso di zelo protettivo nei riguardi della sovranità finisce paradossalmente per indebolirne significativamente il rango e il valore simbolico. Condotto sulla linea maestra della ricostruzione giudiziaria, ma non privandosi delle necessarie aperture storiche, filosofiche e antropologiche, il libro scopre nell'unicità di questo caso un insospettabile sostegno argomentativo da opporre alle pretese del sovranismo, spettro di una nozione, la sovranità, consegnata all'obitorio dalla critica.

br. Nel libro sono raccolti gli atti del Convegno del Centro studi "Aldo Marongiu" dell'Unione Camere Penali Italiane, tenuto a Roma il 28 e 29 settembre 2018. L'occasione del dibattito era rappresentata da una duplice ricorrenza: settant'anni dal varo della Costituzione repubblicana e trenta dalla riforma del codice di procedura penale. Premevano due quesiti. Uno più tradizionale, consueto: se le norme, le prassi, i costumi operativi sedimentatisi in questi trent'anni stiano davvero nei limiti consentiti dalla Carta Fondamentale. E l'altro, ancora più pressante: come siano cambiati, frattanto, questi stessi limiti; se essi siano cresciuti, si siano fatti più robusti o se - viceversa - il proliferare labirintico delle fonti, gli indirizzi delle Corti, i plurimi livelli di tutela dei diritti fondamentali li abbiano indeboliti, resi più blandi e più incerti. Entro questi due fili si snodano i vari scritti, rielaborati dalle relazioni orali, in cui studiosi, avvocati e magistrati, affrontano i vari temi, partendo dalle "traiettorie" di fondo (modi di concepire la legge processuale e nuove egemonie della magistratura), dipanandosi poi fra i pilastri su cui si regge l'impalcatura costituzionale del processo, presunzione d'innocenza, inviolabilità della difesa, contraddittorio, diritti di libertà; infine soffermandosi sui lidi sempre più spinosi del sistema delle impugnazioni e dei tempi del procedimento.
