SUMMARY:

This dissertation focuses on mapping the conservative actors in the dispute over the right to abortion, from a diachronic perspective of the conservative reaction. The study spotlights specifically the impact of these actors on the judiciary, in cases mobilized by the feminist field. To this end, we identified the individual and collective actors who took part in two public hearings convened by the Federal Supreme Court (STF). The first was held in 2008, as part of the motion for breach of fundamental precept (ADPF) 54, through which the Court, in 2012, authorized the interruption of pregnancy in cases of anencephalic fetuses. The second took place in 2018, to hear ADPF 442, which calls for the decriminalization of abortion up to the 12th week of pregnancy. ADPF 54 was the first public hearing called by the STF and open to civil society. It brought together 29 actors. Of these, nine were conservatives. ADPF 442 brought together 63 speakers, 16 of them opposed to abortion. The 10 years between the two showed the expansion of conservative action, with the registration of more religious organizations acting on this front, in addition to the Catholic Church, including the change in the evangelical position from one to the other. In other conclusions, there is also a record of legal organizations with a strong presence in the second hearing and non-existent in the first. The dissertation also shows joint efforts between these different actors. The work indicates the strategic and coordinated action of the Catholic Church, but with the growth of the evangelical churches, the valorization of the law for the conservative reaction, both as a strategy and place of incidence and as a form of organization, the connection with international actors from countries that have experienced or are experiencing similar reactive processes and the rise of national actors after participating in these public hearings to the federal government also as a result of this anti-choice militancy.
