| Summary: | Female genital mutilation was the first culturally motivated crime to be introduced into Italian law. Article 583 bis of the Criminal Code, a symbolic provision, has given rise to limited case law. Almost ten years after its introduction into the Criminal Code and following the so-called Cartabia reform (Legislative Decree 150 of 2022), it is appropriate to reflect on how criminal law can address cultural conflicts. La mutilación genital femenina fue el primer delito motivado por razones culturales que se introdujo en la legislación italiana. El artículo 583 bis del Código Penal, una disposición simbólica, ha dado lugar a una jurisprudencia limitada. Casi diez años después de su introducción en el Código Penal y tras la denominada reforma Cartabia (Decreto Legislativo 150 de 2022), es oportuno reflexionar sobre cómo el derecho penal puede abordar los conflictos culturales. |
