In its judgment No. 238/2014, the Italian Constitutional Court reaffirmed the primacyof the fundamental principles of the Constitution over the customary international rulethat grants foreign States immunity from civil jurisdiction with respect to iure imperii acts.Such principle - which is protected by Article 10, para. 1, of the Italian Constitution - alsocovers acts entailing a grave breach to a peremptory norm of international law, as ascertainedby the International Court of Justice in a Judgment delivered on 3rd February 2012.Judgment No. 238 undeniably leads to a violation of an international obligation. This notwithstanding,by evoking the technique of the «rinvio mobile» (mobile reference) in linewith the neo-dualist approach to the relationship between the international and nationallegal orders, the Constitutional Court acknowledged the normative autonomy of internationallaw and even interpreted some of the fundamental principles of the Constitution inharmony with international rules. The right of access to a court enshrined in the Constitution,moreover, also applies to foreign citizens, and the Italian Government will be calledto adjust its foreign policy accordingly.
