This study proposes a reflection on the role of the judiciary in the satisfaction of fundamental social rights. It analyzes, initially, what represents, by the current conception, the true economic development, directed to the solution of the individual social ills, and not to the global accumulation of wealth. It discusses and demonstrates the role of the state in the pursuit of economic development after the Federal Constitution of 1988. It makes a brief but necessary approach to the economic analysis of the law directed to the State's compliance with the social rights provided for in the Constitution. It studies the application of public budget resources, recognizing their finitude and scarcity and addressing the theories that have been developed around the allocation of public resources: tragic choices, possible reserve and existential minimum. It demonstrates, based on specific studies on the subject, that the judiciary has been severely flawed in serving the courts, which in itself undermines the effectiveness of social rights through the judiciary function of the state. It recognizes that court decisions are fundamental to securing rights and bringing balance to society, but identifies judiciary interference with the public budget brought about by those decisions, especially the lack of prior studies and planning. Advocating that misapplied public resources generate negative consequences for economic development (due to the need for more tax revenues and the consequent drop in the generation of jobs and wealth), proposes that in-depth studies should be conducted to decide, including, the correct allocation of resources and resources. by the partial removal of the judiciary, reserving itself to the private initiative - to the market - the solution of the Brazilian social ills, through the own economic growth. In methodological terms, it uses the deductive technique, based eminently on biographical and jurisprudential research.
