TY - JOUR T1 - Reflexiones sobre el Estatuto de la víctima en el proceso penal italiano A1 - Lupária, Luca PB - Universidad Viña del Mar YR - 2012 UL - http://biblioteca.ararteko.eus/Record/dialnet-ar-18-ART0000571488 AB - The role of the victim in the Italian trial system appears historically marginal and generally linked to the compensation for damage that such a subject may claim by exercising a civil action in criminal proceedings. The article illustrates the change in mentality that is occurring in Italy, both from the point of view of recognition of new powers for the victim and from the point of view of the visual angle of his/her protection from the effects of secondary victimisation typical of the penal system. In this area, the author attaches particular signifi cance to the forces coming from the comparison with other systems, to the effects of the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights and the obligations deriving from the regulatory deeds of the European Union. In the fi nal part of the work, the risk that this new attention for the victim may cause negative repercussions for protecting the fundamental guarantees of the defendant is discussed.
