Abstract

This article aims to analyze the right to religious freedom of children and adolescents, given that this is enshrined as one of the fundamental rights provided in the Federal Constitution of 1988. The research has as problematic the possibility of attributing the foundation of religious´ freedom to the children and adolescents, although in conflict with the right to life, considering the civil incapacity of the minors. In addition, it also analyzes the constitutional rights and principles applied to minors in the light of the doctrine of integral protection, as well as exposes the conflict between fundamental rights and addresses the positions of the Courts on the subject. In terms of methodology, we used the qualitative, inductive and bibliographic research. At the end of the studies, it was concluded that, in spite of the fact that the right to life and religious freedom are fundamental rights, with a similar hierarchy, there are cases where the relativization of one right is allowed for the other, and each case must be analyzed in particular.
