location. Immigration is no longer an emergency, but a structural phenomenon, which impacts on State law, especially the parts concerning regular and irregular migrants as well as the reception system. Exposed to social and electoral pressures, that phenomenon produces uncertain and precarious legal status. This paper analyses them by focusing on the Italian legal system and the fact that immigration constitutes a crucial test for constitutional democracies and, more generally, for Western constitutionalism. In these contexts, the effective protection of dignity should be combined with fundamental rights and free- doms, including those pertaining to religion. Theoretical assumptions, however, are not always reflected in the daily life, least of all in the area of immigration.
phenomena.
In other words, the bilateralism principle can be perfectly used when referring to traditional Judeo-Christian denominations. On the contrary, it can hardly be considered for other minority groups, other than the traditional ones. Moreover, the bilateralism principle does not fit in easily with current Italian society that, due to immigration and globalization, is no a longer monocultural society.
dwelling on the jurisprudential and normative history of ethically sensitive subjects (abortion, assisted procreation, surrogacy, end-of-life), in which science and technology have led the basic notions of human life (birth, life, death, dignity, health, self-determination) to an epistemological crisis. In constitutional democracies they become a source of intense tensions, from which the need for codified state law emerges. Grappling with electoral interests, parliaments respond with tendencies ranging from inertia to partisanship. From the related normative narratives, the confrontation between different conceptions of bioethics comes out. Both secular and religious ideologies take part in the debate concerning the interpretation of constitutional principles, including those related to the theory of “constitutional originalism” and the “living constitution”. That is evident in the light of the Italian legislative and jurisprudential evolution of the last two decades, which is even more interesting when compared to other jurisdictional contexts. Those pertaining to the American Constitution are of particular interest for the present work.
