Resumo
This research has as its field of investigation the agro-environmental legal conflicts. We compare Brazilian environmental constitutional law with the constitutional rights of nature, which are two legal systems based on different philosophical conceptions: anthropocentrism and biocentrism, respectively. We are facing two paradigms that assume the legal vanguard of the matter in question, Brazilian environmental law at the end of the 20th century, and Ecuador's 2008 constitutional charter. In view of this innovative rationality, we began the investigation by questioning the status quo of the man-nature relationship. Afterwards, we make a study of the main institutes of Brazilian environmental constitutional law and of the constitutional rights of nature and, finally, we analyze the case law of Ecuador. In this way, we intend to answer the question whether the rights of nature in the Constitution of Ecuador guarantee greater protection for nature than the environmental rights of the Brazilian Constitution. This is empirical research in law based on documentary research. The quantitative and qualitative descriptive method will be applied for the analysis of judicial decisions about the rights of nature, articles 71, 72, 73 and 74 of the Constitution of Ecuador. The time frame for the publication of decisions will be 2008-2018. Of these rights, 13 judicial decisions of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador were found. We used as a theoretical framework for this research, the theory of the Natural Contract by Michel Serres combined with Latin American democratic constitutionalism, to verify political, epistemological and legal innovations.
