Resumo

This dissertation analyzes the judicial protection of collective and diffuse rights in Brazil. The contemporary social pluralism is seen as a set of perspectives from that derive the collective interests, marked by the multiplicity of subjects with identity demands, and as an expression, many times, of human rights categories. The repeated disregard of collective interests, massified in the context of the welfare state, led to the creation of legal instruments for collective protection. The research highlights the public civil action. The breadth of claims that may be conveyed by the public civil action makes possible the protection of goods and interests of more immediate utility for social groups and the community as a whole, compared to the traditional object of popular action. The public civil action is not seen as just a quirky Brazilian legal-procedural instrument, but as a space of representation of social interests in the current stage of democracy. In order to better understand the historical and cultural arrangements of structure formation of the Brazilian judicial protection of collective and diffuse rights, is traced a brief global overview of the development of instruments for the defense of these rights. The management of the public civil action supposed a transformative potential, suitable for reflections of philosophical and hermeneutic perspectives on the new constitutionalism‘s milestones, since there is little research on the effectiveness and the efficiency of the management of this instrument in Brazil, especially with respect to the conjugated achievement of fundamental rights treated as a inseparable complex in current constitutional order. The instruments of collective protection, that were born in the context of mass society, hardly been consolidated in Brazil and already have its foundations - the Social State of Law and the positivistic hermeneutics - in check. In this monograph, are exposed and analyzed specific cases of public civil actions in Goiás. Statistical data related of these collective actions in Goiânia are considered in evaluating the overall effectiveness and efficiency of the public civil action in defense of collective interests and in assessing the role played by civil society associations and Ministério Público. This is a study that brought together the theoretical and empirical perspectives, and with it, tried to make a realistic diagnosis about the efficiency and effectiveness of the public civil action as an instrument of collective protection of representative social interests of human rights, in an effort to interdisciplinary approach of the subject.
