Il Muslim ban di Trump alla luce del diritto internazionale

On 27 January 2017, the US President Donald Trump adopted an executive order, Protecting the Nation from foreign terrorist entry into the United States, introducing extremely controversial measures: i.e. a 90 day entry ban for nationals from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen, and a 180 day suspension of refugees’ admission to the USA. This ban was challenged before many courts and frozen by a nationwide restraining order on 3 February 2017. On 6 March 2017, a new travel ban was adopted but then suspended nationwide on 15 March 2017. The author analyses both orders and the most significant domestic case-law, focusing in particular on the compatibility of the bans with international law, and on the possibility of international remedies, against the USA and/or Third States, for complicity or on other grounds.
