La revoca della cittadinanza per ragioni di pubblica sicurezza

Abstract

Denationalisation on the grounds of public security threats – The use of denationalization as a counterterrorism strategy prompts a critical examination of its compatibility with the fundamental principles of liberal democracy and human rights in the 21st century, with particular emphasis on the prohibition of statelessness. This paper focuses on the comparative analysis of the legislation and case law of United Kingdom and Denmark to evaluate the extent to which the protection of fundamental human rights can be guaranteed in juridical contexts dominated by security imperatives. Furthermore, the study explores intersections between models of nationality acquisition and denationalisation mechanisms in the two legal systems analysed, highlighting their reciprocal influence.
