The law has an intrinsic relationship with the concept of power and authority, which, in most cases, is perceived as authorized, coercive and irresistible physical force. However, this work had the aim to demonstrate the symbolic aspect of the power coming from the law, as developed by the Pierre Bourdieu s symbolic power theory. Indeed, according to Bourdieu's theory, the symbolic power is disputed at the legal field as the power to establish an authoritatively conception of law, from certain domination strategies in order to maintain the monopoly over the legitimate interpretation of law. rom this perspective, this paper analyzed the possible strategies used by the Federal Supreme Court (STF) as the most powerful court at the judicial review of laws. In developing this theme, we sought to investigate the potential exercise of symbolic violence by the STF ministers, using as a case in point, the judgment of ADPF 54. Then, from research conducted on the website of the Supreme Court, did a qualitative analysis of the votes cast by the STF ministers in that case, comparing the arguments brought by them; as well as established whether the participation of other social actors involved in the fight for authorized interpretation of law, as AGU, PGR and third dmitted as amicus curiae . The research included a literature review of the major works of Pierre Bourdieu, as primary sources, and a review of other works of scholars on the topics covered in this dissertation.
