Resumo: The criticisms toward judicial review from Richard Bellamy and Jeremy Waldron’s political constitutionalism approach demonstrate that they do not exclude constitutional courts entirely, as they accept mechanisms of legislative responses, except constitutional amendments. This paper concludes that the high number of constitutional amendments in Brazil does not mitigate judicial review critiques. The extensive structure of the Brazilian Constitution imposes frequent changes, which do not modify its essence. Furthermore, the possibility of judicial review over constitutional amendments represents that constitutional court could overrule legislative response.

Conclui-se que o alto número de emendas constitucionais no Brasil não mitiga as críticas ao controle de constitucionalidade, pois a estrutura analítica da Constituição Federal impõe mudanças constantes, que não alteram necessariamente a substância do Estado brasileiro. Ademais, a possibilidade de controle de constitucionalidade sobre emenda constitucional demonstra que o julgamento da corte pode se sobrepor à resposta legislativa.Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Pos-Graduacao em Direito - CONPEDI2016-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://www.indexlaw.org/index.php/conpedireview/article/view/366510.26668/2448-3931_conpedilawreview/2016.v2i4.3665Conpedi Law Review; v. 2 n. 4 (2016): Instituciones y desarrollo en la hora actual de América Latina; 275-2962448-39312448-3931reponame:Conpedi Law Reviewinstname:Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-graduação em Direito (CONPEDI)instacron:CONPEDIporhttps://www.indexlaw.org/index.php/conpedireview/article/view/3665/3165Copyright (c) 2017 Jairo Néia Lima, Rubens Beçakinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLima, Jairo NéiaBeçak, Rubens2021-08-20T02:09:24Zoai:ojs.indexlaw.org:article/3665Revistahttps://www.indexlaw.org/index.php/conpedireviewONGhttps://www.indexlaw.org/index.php/conpedireview/oaipublicacao@conpedi.org.br||indexlawjournals@gmail.com2448-39312448-3931opendoar:2021-08-20T02:09:24Conpedi Law Review - Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-graduação em Direito (CONPEDI)false
