Twenty-one years ago Tate and Vallinder (1995) coined the term judicialization of politics. In Brazil, the term was first used in the study of Marcus Faro de Castro (1996), O Supremo Tribunal Federal e a judicialização da política. Since the publication of A judicialização da política e das relações sociais no Brasil, Vianna et al. (1999), the expression has become widely used in the research on relations between judicial institutions and politics. However, the definitions, meanings and prognoses contained in these researches are profoundly disagreeable. The judicialization of politics presents itself as a polysemic term. This dissertation seeks to undertake the history of the concept of judicialization of politics in Brazilian political science, with the objective of mapping the different significations and meanings of that term. The temporal cut occurs between 1996 and 2014. The general scope of the research consists, therefore: in a first chapter of review and methodological appropriation; a second chapter of analysis of dissertations and theses about judicialization produced in post-graduate programs in political science in Brazil; and a third chapter of analysis of its main definitions and meanings. Finally, the judicialization of politics is understood as a political concept and five layers of meaning concerning its semantic field in Brazilian Political Science are identified.
