The State of Unconstitutional Affairs in the ADPF 347 and the law's allure: the impact of the interim order and the political powers' responses

Abstract

This article intends to analyze the State of Unconstitutional Affairs from the evaluation of the impacts of the interim order granted by the STF in the three branches of the Republic and the possibility of social changes from it. Dealing with the decision of the STF in ADPF 347 as a decision that creates political paths to be covered by the involved agents, in this case, the Executive, Legislative and Judicial powers, it seeks to evaluate the feasibility of the answers presented in order to reach, or not, the requirements formulated by the judicial decision. The data collected in the scope of the powers were contrasted with the objectives of the interim orders and with the justifications of the State of Unconstitutional Affairs. Next, the article argues for the impossibility of changes in the factual situation presented through legal categories, based on Gerald Rosenberg’s theses on social changes through law. The study concludes that the granted interim orders are not effective, because the powers presented answers that follow the same nature of the policies traditionally developed in Brazil, and that a social change is unlikely through the declaration of the State of Unconstitutional Affairs.
