This research examines the development of the last word theory in Brazilian Supreme Court decisions amid the judicialization of political issues from other branches.
It explores institutional dialogues, separation of powers, and democratic principles within the rule of law to analyze the Supreme Court’s activist actions and their impact on the relationship with the legislative and executive branches. The goal is to determine whether the final word effectively resolves social conflicts through proper constitutional interpretation. A qualitative analysis was conducted using the deductive method.
