PAGES: 50
BIG AREA: Ciências Sociais Aplicadas
AREA: Direito
SUMMARY:

The doctoral thesis project revolves around the following questions: what are the political strategies adopted by the STF in the face of authoritarian populist governments? Do they threaten its stability or strengthen the Court politically? Factually understanding the strategic behavior of the STF is relevant to draw a predictive outlook for the Brazilian future. Constitutional experiences across the globe are indicative that failure in an election is not enough to prevent a new autocratic threat, nor to curb its remnants within institutionalized political spaces, just look at the North American Congress. The research, however, seeks to transcend the descriptive space to, based on the analyzed data, theoretically add to the normative discussions of the legal academy a possible paradigm of constitutional design. A paradigm that is not alien to the need for a collective and institutional effort in the face of authoritarian threats. But, equally, that will not serve to authorize distortions of constitutionalism itself to satisfy the political agenda of the STF or any of its ministers.
