Resumo: This article aims to broaden the debate on the presidential nomination for the position of Justiceof the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) by exploring the mechanisms through whichexpectations of the Justices’ behavior can be anticipated. After analyzing the current discussionon the topic, which highlights influence as one of the main objectives in the selection of STFnominees, we present and discuss the mechanisms by which this influence can be expected bythe president: ideology, loyalty, and gratitude. Based on this, we formulate hypotheses about thejudicial behavior of Justices who have been nominated through one of these mechanisms, at theexpense of the others, and provide anecdotal evidence that presidents nominate Justices withexpectations of loyalty and gratitude. Additionally, we observe that the manifestation of theseelements in the behavior of the Justices, although criticized, is also expected by other politicalactors.

Após uma análise da discussão atual sobre o tema, que destaca a influência como um dos principais objetivos na escolha de indicados ao STF, apresentamos e discutimos os mecanismos pelos quais essa influência pode ser esperada pelo presidente: ideologia, lealdade e gratidão. Com base nisso, formulamos hipóteses sobre o comportamento judicial de Ministros que tenham sido indicados por meio de um desses mecanismos, em detrimento dos outros, e fornecemos evidências anedóticas de que presidentes indicam Ministros com expectativas de lealdade e gratidão. Além disso, observamos que a manifestação desses elementos no comportamento dos Ministros, embora criticada, também é esperada por outros atores políticos.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)2023-08-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/9022510.5007/2175-7984.2022.e90225Política & Sociedade; Vol. 21 No. 52 (2022): Novas agendas de pesquisa sobre o Supremo Tribunal Federal; 163-183Política & Sociedade; Vol. 21 Núm. 52 (2022): Novas agendas de pesquisa sobre o Supremo Tribunal Federal; 163-183Política & Sociedade; v. 21 n. 52 (2022): Novas agendas de pesquisa sobre o Supremo Tribunal Federal; 163-1832175-79841677-4140reponame:Política & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/90225/54077http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMagalhães, LucasMorais Araújo, MateusTorok Moreira, Shandor2023-08-23T17:26:58Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/90225Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politicaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/oai||ernesto.seidl@ufsc.br|| ps@cfh.ufsc.br2175-79841677-4140opendoar:2023-08-23T17:26:58Política & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
