Abstract: The text discusses the growing importance of the communication of constitutional and supreme courts with public opinion, and how new technologies are transforming this relationship. It highlights the need for an empirical analysis of court communication, due to the scarcity of norms regulating these activities. The author examines who, what, how and to whom courts communicate, and considers the influence of the normative and factual context in which they operate. It is concluded that these transformations have an impact on the role of constitutional jurisdictions.
The two features of third-party intervention and facts-finding powers therefore will be analyzed, in order to understand if, and to which extent, the Court uses them to open its proceeding to external contributions and thus implement its relational approach, We will focus only on the incidental system of judicial review (or incidenter judicial review), considering it as the core of the Italian system of constitutional justice.
We can anticipate that the Constitutional Court’s approach to third-party intervention and to the fact-finding powers is highly “flexible”, the Court normally preferring informal channels to gather information.
