Legal perceptions of the striker movements in brazil in the mid twentieth century

Abstract

This paper investigates the legal understanding of striker movements in Brazil during the mid-twentieth century. To this end, this paper analyzes research articles written by lawyers and legal scholars published in Revista Forense and Revista dos Tribunais between the years of 1953 and 1955. In order to develop our ideas, we assumed that social events have important consequences in the legal framework, leading to the internalization of perception, appreciation and action by various jurists. As a result, we identify different forms of perception of these historical and social movements: the associations between strike and war; criticism of the political sphere; the disqualifications of legal terms, and some legal defenses.
