Full textJustice and forgiveness are like two poles of a dialectic that unites them to the point of making them inseparable. Forgiveness is a free gift that comes from a personal approach while justice is a natural or legal right that every human being is entitled. Indeed, forgiveness is not incompatible with justice. It coexists with justice without interfering. The work of one is supplemented by the contribution of the other. In this regard, there cannot be closure with forgiveness without justice. Likewise, there can be no reconciliation with justice without forgiveness. Thus, forgiveness is the fruit of justice. In fact, forgiveness is an act of love beyond fault that breaks pain and hatred. Forgiveness grows whoever offers it and contributes to the happiness of others. The past is vanquished and transcended. Justice is a safeguard that removes discord and inequality. From this point of view, justice and forgiveness are two interacting virtues that bring moral and spiritual fulfillment to human being. They are at the service of charity

Full textThe purpose of this work is challenging the current human rights framework, demonstrating its contradictions, as well as rethinking it under a new perspective, in a manner to reactivate the political struggle of those rights. For this purpose, this work has been split into three different sections. The first one presents the paradoxes between the theory and practice of human rights, having as main reference the thoughts of the Greek legal scholar Costas Douzinas. The second section examines the critics posed by Burke, Marx and Arendt to the traditional human rights theory, thereby clarifying the foundations of its contradictions. The third section aims at establishing a new human rights perspective, in light of Jaques Rancière thinking.

Full textEl estado de emergencia – la provisión gubernamental a través de la cual se dicta poderes excepcionales pertinentes a una situation de emergencia – es una característica que contempla el sistema jurídico de una mayoría de gobiernos nacionales. La posibilidad de declarar un estado de emergencia, a pesar de ser ocasionalmente necesario, es sin embargo altamente vulnerable ante un probable abuso de autoridad. Dado dicho riesgo, no obstante restricciones establecidas en leyes nacionales e internacionales regulando su uso, las medidas excepcionales adoptadas por algunos países han trascendido la serie de límites y controles contemplados, resultando en violaciones de derechos humanos de carácter inconmensurable y excesivo. Dicha adopción de poderes excepcionales contradice la prerrogativa original de los mismos, es decir, la proteción de derechos humanos fundamentales en caso se presenten graves circumstancias que perturben o amenacen perturbar en forma inminente el orden político, social, económico y ecológico del país en cuestión. Por ende, el estado de emergencia puede ser calificado como una paradoja: simultáneamente actuando como protector y amenaza a los derechos humanos. La presente tesis localiza su punto de inicio en la identificada presupocisión de una estructura estable propia de un estado democrático de derecho para un funcionamento certero de los establecidos controles y límites. A manera de investigar la validez atribuída a dicha presupocisión, el ámbito de analísis concierne el contexto del Sudeste asiático, una región seleccionada dada su observada variedad de niveles de democracia. El estudio, de carácter comparativo, traza continuidades, desarrollos y cambios pertinentes a la aplicación de poderes de emergencia y sus repercusiones en materia de derechos humanos en los casos de Tailandia y las Filipinas entre 1996 y 2021. Además, las motivaciones tras la declaratoria también fueron observadas e investigadas, dado que la identificación de una situación como excepcional es incidentemente el proceso a través de cual el estado de emergencia se construye y se torna usable, lo que a su vez guía la formulación de las medidas de emergencia y consigna una eventual restricción de derechos humanos. Los estados de emergencia observados ilustran como los poderes excepcionales en varias instancias conceden una militarización de la agenda política, lo cual circunscribe un reto en lo que concierne la confianza social, particularmente en contextos como Tailandia y las Filipinas, cuyo legado militar forma la vida política contemporánea. Además, dicho legado forma parte de una dimensión adicional del estado de emergencia, de acuerdo a la cual un sistema político inestable amerita la declaración de un estado de emergencia con el propósito de estabilizar el sistema político y proteger derechos humanos. Sin embargo, al final, el primero termina siendo estabilizado a través de la represión del último. En este contexto, la violación de derechos humanos es más prominente cuando la noción de la excepción se vuelve la norma. De esta manera, frecuentes declaratorias resultan en una reconceptualización de la interacción entre lo político y lo social, así silenciando políticamente a individuos considerados una posible futura amenza. Así, se observó que la implementación de poderes excepcionales produce, representa, y sostiene una sensación de seguridad social en gran parte ficticia.

The Brazilian Federal Constitution of 1988 guaranteed to all citizens the right to health. Nevertheless, the Brazilian government inability to solidify this right fostered a huge amount of legal actions precisely to pursuit social effectiveness. All over the world, this interventionist conduct was labeled as juridical activism. In Brazil, this issue gained unimaginable proportions and has set the judiciary in the center of the discussion stage about Public Policies. And the Brazilian Supreme Court (STF Supremo Tribunal Federal), as guardian of the Federal Constitution and as the top one in the structure of that power, arises as key of this new institutional design of the Principle of Separation of Powers. In that context, the research has as its aim to identify if the STF performance on the right to health results in effectiveness or in symbolism. It was made by a theoretical research and an empirical investigation. The collect of data was centered in theoretical sociologist, with respective prominence given to the Niklas Luhmann´s Theory of Systems, which was used in the identification of legal rationality, social inclusion, complexity, contingence, justice, and the roles of Courts, the Legal and the Political Systems. In the theoretical reference, the conceptualization of the expression: symbolic is extremely rich. To a point that routinely semantic confusion is found; to avoid it, this work embraces the thesis developed by Marcelo Neves in his book: A Constitucionalização Simbólica (The Symbolic Constitutionalization), in which he develops a debate about the symbolism of constitutional norms. For the empirical research, by the methods of research, a documental investigation was made, collected from Brazilian Supreme Court´s leading cases. The study of these sentences was sponsored by the Pragmatic of Charles Sander Pierce. In effect, the research result arranged a paradox. It was found that the Brazilian Supreme Court, in a point of view restricted to the litigants, searches for an illusory effectiveness of the right to health, which is symbolic, inasmuch as the judge from a rationality exclusive adjudicatory, denying to see the issue, therefore, as an distributive issue, as a matter of distribution of wealth, which, in a macro perspective, causes the risk of corruption in the political system for forcing the public administration to distribute a wealth that, sometimes, does not even exist, as well as excluding most of the population, that does not have access to this Court or that indirectly are strained considering the diverged resources from the public health to accomplish its decisions
A Constituição Federal de 1988 garantiu a todo indivíduo o direito à saúde. Porém, a incapacidade do governo brasileiro em concretizar esse direito fomentou uma avalanche de ações judiciais, justamente para buscar a sua efetividade social. Mundialmente, essa postura de intervenção foi rotulada como ativismo judicial. No Brasil, a questão tomou proporções inimagináveis, o que colocou o Judiciário no centro do palco dos debates sobre políticas públicas. E o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), como guardião da Constituição Federal e como topo da estrutura do referido poder, surge como peçachave desse novo desenho institucional do princípio da separação dos poderes. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa, que tem como escopo identificar se a atuação do STF em direito à saúde resulta em efetividade ou em simbolismo, realizou-se mediante investigação teórico-empírica; a teórica foi conduzida pelo processo dedutivo. Centrou-se a coleta de dados em teóricos sociais, com destaque respectivamente à teoria dos sistemas de Niklas Luhmann, a qual foi utilizada na identificação da racionalidade jurídica, da inclusão social, da complexidade, da contingência, da justiça, do papel dos tribunais, dos sistemas jurídico e político. No plano teórico, a conceituação da expressão simbólico é extremamente rica, a tal ponto de rotineiramente se encontrar confusão semântica; para evitá-la, o trabalho adota a tese desenvolvida por Marcelo Neves, no seu livro A Constitucionalização Simbólica , em que desenvolve debate em torno do simbolismo das normas constitucionais. Para a pesquisa empírica, por meio dos métodos de pesquisa, utilizou-se investigação documental, coletada de precedentes judiciais do STF. O estudo dos acórdãos foi promovido por meio da Pragmática de Charles Sander Pierce. Com efeito, o resultado da pesquisa se configurou num paradoxo: constatou-se que o STF, numa visão restrita à justiça dos litigantes, busca uma ilusória efetividade do direito à saúde, a qual resta simbólica, porquanto julga sob uma racionalidade exclusivamente adjudicatória, negando-se a ver a questão, portanto, de forma distributiva como uma distribuição de riqueza, o que, numa perspectiva macro, provoca o risco da corrupção do sistema político por obrigar a Administração Pública a distribuir riqueza que, muitas vezes, não existe, bem como exclui a maioria da população que não tivera acesso à referida Corte ou que indiretamente é prejudicada pelos recursos desviados da saúde para cumprir suas decisões

Full textThe collective catastrophes imposed by authoritarian regimes, be they of racist character, like apartheid in South Africa, or be they of strictly political character, like the military dictatorship in Brazil, require daily efforts of reflection as well as political action. These governments were characterized by their systematic violation of their citizens\' rights by brutal military and police apparatus. Worst of all, the whole scheme was set up and maintained by a State which institutionalized imprisonment, torture, disappearance and murder. Thus, these societies are left today to face a difficult issue: how to reconcile such painful past with a democratic present, and still manage the conflicts that do not end with a mere institutional passage from a dictatorial government to a democratic one. Human rights violations were not limited to political institutions, but went far beyond; they reached individuals, and they modified the subjectivity of those societies significantly. The opposition between the State pacificatory political reason and the painful memories regarding Brazilian military dictatorship obstructs public expression of pain and reduces memory to private emotions. In contrast, by valuing the narratives of the past, the South African society tried to recover the memory of the painful moments making these experiences public by publishing their narratives. South Africans gave up punishing those State criminals with the only condition they would confess everything, in order to foster a national conciliation. In Brazil, however, the ideal of a national conciliation to put an end to military rule paid the huge price of silencing the memories of pain, torture, and death. This had an impact on society, on its subjectivity and even on the public politics adopted later. Our point of view is that due to the lack of investment in the dialogue and in the democratic social communion the publicizing of traumas and resentments by means of narratives could contribute to realization of the mourning, thus promoting social bonds.

Full textAs finalidades da pena, tal como previstas no art. 40º do Código Penal, são a proteção de bens jurídicos e a reintegração do agente na sociedade, já a execução da pena, servindo a defesa da sociedade e prevenindo a prática de crimes, orienta-se no sentido da reintegração social do recluso, nos termos do art. 42º CP. O cumprimento destas finalidades implica, e deve ter sempre em consideração, que os reclusos durante a execução da pena continuam a ser indivíduos titulares de direitos fundamentais, havendo direitos como o direito à vida, à saúde e à integridade física, direito não podem ser postos em causa e que o Estado deve assegurar. A situação pandémica causada pela doença COVID-19 originou uma crise sanitária a nível mundial e levou ao surgimento de vários problemas que foram muito para além de questões de saúde, repercutindo-se nomeadamente ao nível do direito penal. Em face desta situação os vários ordenamentos jurídicos tiveram de dar respostas imediatas aos problemas que foram surgindo de forma a evitar a propagação do coronavírus. Um dos grandes problemas que se colocou a nível do direito penal está ligado às especificidades dos estabelecimentos prisionais que propiciam a propagação do vírus, colocando os reclusos numa posição de alto risco de contágio. De forma a salvaguardar o direito à vida, à saúde e à integridade física dos reclusos surgiu a Lei n.º9/2020, de 10 de Abril, que veio prever um Regime excecional de flexibilização da execução das penas e medidas de graça no âmbito da pandemia da doença COVID-19. Este regime prevê um perdão de penas de prisão, um regime especial de indulto das penas, um regime extraordinário de licença de saída administrativa de reclusos condenados e a antecipação extraordinária da colocação em liberdade condicional.
The purposes of the penalty, as provided in the 40º article of the Portuguese Penal Code, are the protection of the legal interests and the reintegration of the agent in the society, while the execution of the sentence, serving the defense of the society and preventing the practice of crimes, is oriented towards the social reintegration of the prisioners, under the terms of the 42 article of the Portuguese Penal CodeThe fulfillment of these purposes implies, and must always take into account, that prisoners during the execution of the sentence continue to be individuals with fundamental rights, with rights such as the right to life, health and physical integrity, rights that cannot be restrained and which the State must ensure.The pandemic caused by the COVID-19 disease caused a global health crisis and led to the emergence of several problems, which went far beyond health issues, with repercussions in the criminal law. Therefore, the various legal systems had to respond immediately to the problems that emerged to prevent the spreading of the coronavirus.One of the major problems in terms of criminal law is associated to the specifications of prisons that facilitate the propagation of the virus, putting prisoners at a high risk of contagion. To safeguard the prisoners' right to life, right to health and right to physical integrity, the Law n.º 9/2020, provided for an exceptional regime of flexibility in the execution of penalties and acts of grace in the context of the COVID-19 disease pandemic. This regime established a forgiveness of prison sentences, a special regime of pardon of sentences, an extraordinary regime for the administrative releases of convicted prisoners and the extraordinary anticipation of the placement on parole.
