Refundação de direitos e Corte Interamericana de Direitos Humanos

Abstract

The internationalization of Law phenomenon has, as one of its challenges, the Human Rights. Therefore, the emphasis that ran through the research was to analyze the dynamics of this multiple process, full with normative interdependencies– that push stable categories of domestic and international law out of the comfort zone. Indeed, this thesis deepened the investigation and focused its attention on the compliance with judgments from the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, revealing the methods of interaction between internal and international law. To this reflection, the research searched the dynamics that took to internationalization of Human Rights during the XX and XXI centuries, inquiring its theoretical and practical foundations. Likewise, the research analyzed the mechanisms of approximation between what is decided in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights through its judgments and the possibilities of implementation of these orders in domestic area, checking institutional processes that ease or hinder the acknowledgment and compliance of these judgments. Therefore, through bibliographic, documental and jurisprudential research, using the phenomenological method, it was evaluated that it is necessary to recognize humanity at the core of its understanding, and not only when its rights are already violated and undermined. The reprobation side of norms must be connected to the power of protection, firmed in a positive way to prevent violations to occur. Thus, it is up to jurists to recognize these changes and to consolidate the conventional defense for Human Rights.
