Resumo: | The social role of a legal process is a very important issue to society, but it is little discussed concerning practical results inserted in the population’s daily lives. This is where authorities of constituted powers have treated indifferently the disappointing verification that the result of procedural activity has been insufficient towards the social effect goal. This suppresses the reason of being of this instrument, that is, its unique social relevance concerning pacification of the community. This study presents a theme that encourages the reader to “dive” into a discussion addressing the understanding of the actual role of legal processes in the Democratic State of Law in light of the Theory of Principles by Ronald Dworkin and the Discourse Theory by Jürgen Habermas. The study does not aim at comparing these theories or analyzing specific procedural institutions, but demonstrating the contributions achieved and their potentials through the reading of these two philosophical currents, focusing on the procedural effectiveness. It makes a parallel analysis of individuals’ rights to access justice, searching for harmony in the community they live and perform their activities. Ronald Dworkin presents the Theory of Principles, which approaches several central aspects of problems in constant analyses by specialists in contemporary law. These include the elaboration of the concept of law, its application processes and validity, basing its thesis on a juridical system known as “common law”. Jürgen Habermas presents the Discourse Theory, which aims at clarifying which conditions are necessary for a democratic legitimation of the law. His theory has normative pretensions. It tries to transcend the negative aspect of modernity to implement a democratic project in the extent of law, that is, its critics to Luhmann, Dworkin and Alexy’s theories, including the role of law, of the public sphere and of the political system, are reconstructed in the milestone of Discursive Theory. It is concluded that we need to search for a new profile of speed trial in procedural law in order to respond to social needs without messy, precipitate procedures or summary trials, respecting constitutional warranties and presenting the two philosophical currents analyzed in this study. |
