An era of global expansion of the Judiciary is underway. However, it is questionable whether such expansion harmonizes with the separation of powers, the guarantee of individual rights and the need to legitimize government by the consent of the governed, through representative democracy, the three pillars in order to restrain the power of rulers in modern constitutionalism. The study will address the tension between democracy and judicial review, since the exercise of judicial review imposes problems for collective deliberation by extracting responses directly from the Constitution, through judicial interpretation, considering that such tensions can be observed through relations between the branches of government. The theme involves the understanding and distinction of the politicization of justice and judicial activism. The judicial activism has multiple faces, so its more precise delimitation is necessary. The study thus works in the delimitation of a space in which the position of the legitimate Judiciary should be one of self-restraint, in the form of a deference to the elected branches based on the separation of powers in a democratic and plural society, in order to analyze the recent expansion of the Judiciary in Brazil
