During the months of May to September, Prof. Dr. Sérgio Torres Teixeira taught a discipline called “Constitutional Guaranties of the Process and Procedural Instrumentality” (which is also the name of this book) in the Post-Graduate Program of the Federal University of Pernambuco; one of the first classes entirely online in regard to COVID-19 safety measures. Despite the distance, all classmates were remarkably close in the intellectual purpose of learning and develop the law. Their researches, discussions and enthusiasm gave birth to this book, which delves deeply in important matters regarding constitutional and procedural law. It is constituted of 12 carefully written articles concerning such matters as the non-avoidance of judicial review, procedural equality in national and international law, international juridical cooperation and the effectiveness of transnational adjudication, the right to a natural judge in arbitration, social participation in administrative procedures, preventive measures in administrative procedures, among other themes that can be seen in the summary. It is a book that encapsulate different views and perspectives about such fundamental matters, intertwining different areas of law, abundantly revealing the plurality of though that sets the tone to this valuable initiative. It is by definition the work of a collectivity, that by mutual criticism made possible this academic landmark to all participants, showing the active and curious spirit of the minds cultivated in the Federal University of Pernambuco, specially concerning the researches related to procedural justice, access to justice and instrumentality. In this sense, is a work that reflects the prominent procedural issues of its time.
A semester before the publication of the work that the reader has in hands, the themes related to Democratic Constitutionalism and Constitutional Justice were the focus of the classroom of the discipline of the same name in the Postgraduate Program in Law of the Faculty of Law of the Recife (UFPE), Brazil, led by professor and doctor Ivo Dantas, a great name in Brazilian Constitutional Law. Comparisons between the institutes of our constitutional system and the foreign constitutional system, principles of the Constitution, Fundamental Rights, the Control of Constitutionality, the Separation of Powers, the Constitutional Interpretation, the compulsory nature of vaccination for COVID, among many other more than present themes in our daily lives, they are presented to the reader, directly from the classroom, in a clear, concise and updated way.
In this volume, major issues are addressed, especially regarding the last labor reform, and, as well, procedural aspects are addressed, in view of the advent of the new Code of Civil Procedure 2015, and its consequences for the work process. The current scenario - of legislative reforms, technological advances and social transformations - brings new challenges in the field of labor law, and certainly cannot remain immune to the critical debate of law enforcement. Subsequent of social struggles, labor law over the years has grown in normative density and protective principles in various legal systems, where the legal-labor subsystem has covered the worker with several guarantees, which, even, went through the phenomenon of constitutionalization. In this perspective, understanding labor law from its great social function allows us to obtain its interpretative key. To protect the worker is what exists.
