“…Gleeson CJ and Gaudron, McHugh, Gummow and Hayne JJ again accepted the defendant companies' submission 'that the reasoning and conclusion in Pfeiffer that the substantive law for the determination of rights and liabilities in respect of intra-Australian torts is the lex loci delicti should be extended to foreign torts, despite the absence of the significant factor of federal considerations'. 52 Territoriality, though dislodged from the constitutional considerations that drove the decision in Pfeiffer, again suggested that the lex loci delicti should govern the claim. 53 Furthermore, continuing the identical treatment of interstate and international torts, the joint majority appeared to reject any flexible exception to the lex loci delicti.…”

Since 1994, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia have adopted new choice of law rules for cross-border torts that, in different ways, centre on the application of the law of the place where the tort occurred (thelex loci delicti). All three countries abandoned some species of the rule inPhillips v Eyre, which required some reference to the law of the forum (thelex fori) as well as thelex loci delicti. However, predictions were made that, where possible, courts in these countries would continue to show a strong inclination to apply thelex foriin cross-border tort cases—and would use a range of homing devices to do so. A comprehensive survey and analysis of the cases that have been decided under the Australian, British and Canadianlex loci delictiregimes suggests that courts in these countries do betray a homing instinct, but one that has actually been tightly restrained by appeal courts. Where application of thelex foriwas formally allowed by use of a ‘flexible exception’ in Canada and the United Kingdom, this has been contained by courts of first appeal. Indeed, only the continuing characterization of the assessment of damages as a procedural question in Canada and the United Kingdom, seems to remain as a significant homing device for courts in these countries.

“…Analisando a teoria de Gadamer, Moreira e Pereira (2017, p. 33) relembram que não é a história que nos pertence, mas nós é que pertencemos a ela. Com efeito, as pré-compreensões, a fusão entre os horizontes desse intérprete e do texto normativo e, ainda, a necessidade de uma consciência se apresentam como condições de possibilidade da compreensão (NOTTINGHAM; SANTIAGO;DIAS, 2017, p. 197). Gadamer (2008, p. 388) faz um importante alerta no sentido de que não se pode compreender este círculo hermenêutico como algo metodológico, tendo em vista a própria natureza do processo de compreensão.…”

Este artigo tem por objetivo apontar saídas para os excessos cometidos pelos juízes na prestação jurisdicional, buscando um caminho que não diminua a atribuição que a Constituição Federal brasileira reservou ao Poder Judiciário. Através de pesquisa bibliográfica e dos referenciais teóricos de Luigi Ferrajoli, Hans-Georg Gadamer e de Ronald Dworkin, analisam-se as características fundamentais do garantismo e do ativismo, dentro de uma perspectiva hermenêutica, além da concepção do Direito como Integridade. A partir da adequada compreensão dessas questões, busca-se um ponto de equilíbrio na atividade judicial, compatível com o Estado Democrático de Direito. Conclui-se que a teoria do Direito como Integridade de Ronald Dworkin é o caminho a ser perseguido pelos juízes para a concretização, sem excessos, de suas competências constitucionais.
