Next Tuesday, October 19th at 19 PM, Ives Gandra da Silva Martins, Michel Temer, and Paulo de Barros Carvalho will be holding an online meeting to discuss Brazilian Federalism.
As enshrined in Article 1 of the 1988 Federal Constitution, Brazilian Federalism reveals a norm of competence directed at public entities (the Union, States, Federal District, and Municipalities) while simultaneously informing of their reciprocal autonomy. This autonomy, it is worth noting, grants them the necessary financial independence to fulfill their general obligations and, especially, allows them to implement the necessary public policies enshrined in the Federal Constitution. In this model, it presents itself as an inexhaustible source of prestige for individual and/or collective rights and guarantees, both private and public, which have often been disregarded over time. And, in this context, we encounter the disregard for objective and subjective values that interfere both in the legal relations between taxpayers and the State, and between public entities of domestic law. These repercussions are detrimental to the country, and are not limited to legal relations alone, as they encompass an entire scenario that discourages stability and hinders national economic growth. This scenario leads us to two of the most important and complex Brazilian structural reforms: the administrative/financial and the tax reforms. This is the focus of study and analysis at this meeting.
