A interpretação judicial no novo constitucionalismo latino-americano: a colisão entre direitos fundamentais e tradições culturais ; Judicial interpretation in the new Latin American constitutionalism: the integration between fundamental rights and cultural traditions

This research has as goal the of understanding the Judiciary role in a scenario of high complexity in its decision-making power, given the need to comply with the principle of separation of Powers on the one hand and the collision between fundamental rights and cultural traditions, on the other.
