Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to prove the importance of legal and economic spheres for the realization of justice according to the Amartya Sen’s Theory of Justice. In the most stable democratic societies, the legal system is an indispensable reference and demonstrates the strength of the population’s political values and convictions in relation to the social organization at present and in subsequent periods. Empirical data and two laws that contribute to the social equity, participation, exercise of freedom and the overcoming of inequalities in Brazil are presented. The Amartya Sen’s contribution is relevant in the world for the recovery, updating and improvement of democracy.

Key Words: Constitutional Law; Contract Law; Justice; Equity; Democracy; Freedom of Information and Expression; New Technologies; Amartya Sen; Brazil.
