Authoritarian Zones within Democracy: Rule of Law in Contemporary Brazil
President Jair Bolsonaro's government (2019-2022) brought unprecedented turmoil to the Brazilian democracy. In this paper, we argue that Bolsonaro's government builds on and expands pre-existing zones of authoritarianism embedded in the country. We illustrate the intricacies and perils of sustaining and expanding zones of authoritarianism in the Brazilian case in two domains: corruption and police violence, areas that represent some of the most i…
Dimensões Institucionais da Igualdade de Gênero: O Caso Maria da Penha
Este artigo explora a complexa interação entre a letra da Lei Maria da Penha (Lei 11.340/2006) e o contexto institucional no qual ela funciona. Após detalhar as mudanças institucionais introduzidas pela lei, analisamos as medidas adotadas pelo governo brasileiro para implementar reformas, apontando inúmeras deficiências. Ademais, mostramos que os tribunais brasileiros não têm reconhecido a importância das instituições previstas na lei. Concluímos…
Using Criminal Law to Fight Corruption: The Potential, Risks, and Limitations of Operation Car Wash (Lava Jato)
The Brazilian case of Lava Jato started with a scandal involving the massive malfeasance of corporate and political elites in relation to the state-run oil company Petrobras. The scope of the corruption was unprecedented. Politicians and Petrobras employees received hundreds of millions (if not billions) of dollars in kickbacks between 2004 and 2012. This Article focuses on the innovations promoted by the Lava Jato case. This new jurisprudence ha…
Flows of protest control in São Paulo (2013-2014)
The article analyzes the dynamics of protest control in São Paulo, from June 2013 to June 2014, focusing on coalitions between actors, arenas and institutional repertoires. We argue that the police crackdown on June 13 in São Paulo encouraged ordinary citizens to join the demonstrations, as well as spurred changes in local and federal government responses to protests and in repressive repertoires of social control
Anti-racism legislation in Brazil: The role of the Courts in the reproduction of the myth of racial democracy
The goal of this paper is to analyze Brazilian anti-racism law in practice, assessing judicial response to cases of racial stigma and insult. We analyzed over 200 cases from 9 Brazilian states involving racial insults and racial disparagement in Brazilian courts of appeal. We find that the judiciary tends to downplay the importance of insult and stigma, often dismissing cases or lowering penalties. This judicial treatment conflicts with the evide…
Derechos sexuales y reproductivos de las mujeres en América Latina a debate
The arrival of sexual and reproductive rights on the public agenda signaled a new moment in the dynamics between law and society in Latin America. But despite important regional and international advances in guaranteeing sexual and reproductive rights in recent years, these often provoke tensions between those who favor their recognition and those who oppose it. In this issue of Encartes, we hope to shed light on some of the main points of the de…
Constitutionalizing abortion in Brazil
Brazil has been constitutionalizing disputes on women’s right to terminate unwanted pregnancy. This paper explains how this process started with the drafting of the new constitution in 1986-87, and evolved in different arenas, the legislative, the executive and in the public sphere. Most recently, it moved to the Supreme Court, primarily in its anencephalic pregnancy decision, brought as a Claim of Non Compliance with Fundamental Precept (ADPF 54…

DOI: 10.12957/dep.2016.25165 Resumo No ano de 2004, a luta feminista pela ampliação do direito de escolha da mulher sobre a maternidade inaugura a frente do litígio estratégico. Naquele momento, em que as hipóteses de aborto legal se restringiam a duas – gravidez resultado de estupro e risco de vida para a gestante – mulheres grávidas de fetos diagnosticados anencefálicos que não desejassem levar adiante a gravidez tinham diante de si um grande d…
