| Summary: |
The main purpose of this work is to study through the deductive method and based on the historical procedure, the adaptation of Brazil to adequate itself to the international concept 'Transitional Justice', particularly as to the validity of the Federal Law No. 6683 of 1979 – the ‘Amnesty Act’. To this end, it promotes a debate between two conflicting decisions: the ‘Arguição de Descumprimento de Preceito Fundamental’ No. 153, issued by the Brazilian Supreme Court, and the Gomes Lund and Others vs. Brazil, adopted by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. From the colliding understanding adopted by these courts, there are newer possibilities to discuss and research the criminal punishment of crimes committed by state agents during the Brazilian dictatorship. After all, in accordance to the Brazilian doctrine, Brazilian law should only be applied if not conflicting with international human rights treaties signed by the State, denoting, at the end, Brazil’s inconsistency on the subject. |
