Abstract

Law has faced a fight against epistemic denialism, which generates misconceptions by its own professionals and so-called scholars, unfortunately contributing to the increase in discrimination and prejudice and disrespect for otherness. Through the Hermeneutic Criticism of Law, Streck highlights the main contemporary problems of Law, aiming, in this way, to deconstruct the legal tradition since the first codification, with the emergence of legal positivism. This research intends, therefore, to answer the following problem: can otherness be considered as a right / duty within the Brazilian legal system? For that, a presentation of the theoretical matrix of the Hermeneutic Criticism of Law, founded by Lênio Streck, was made to base the critical-hermeneutic activity, presenting the elements that characterize alterity in the analysis of the sentence of Process nº. 3466-46.2019.4.01.3500, in order to identify how otherness is worked within the legal system of the country.
