The right to the Free Development of Personality presupposes the right to the construction of personal identity in an autonomous way and proposes the resumption of the right to Private Autonomy on a different basis to Classical Liberalism, as the right to be alone in one's singularity, with a view to the construction of the right to Private Decisional Autonomy, as the right to One's Own Body (physical, mental and other aspects) and the Right to Information, necessary for personal choice in matters of gender, sexuality, bioethics, euthanasia, etc. It also proposes special attention for contemporary debates on gender, sex and sexuality issues, admitting the possibility of situating gender and sex in the context of discourse, reflecting their constructed nature, from a heterosexual society, as opposed to what would be considered natural.

This course deals with the scope of protection of fundamental social security rights, based on the conceptual references set out in Brazilian constitutional law (health, social security and social assistance). It explores their connections with human rights, in order to deepen the material and effective analysis of the goods protected, the forms of protection and the techniques for specifying (and attributing) rights to the broad and open notion of social security. This course deals with a fundamentally important right that is largely unrecognized in Brazil: the human right to social security. This right is at once a condition and a constituent element of a minimally decent human life. In fact, the protection of this right is necessary to guarantee many less controversial human and constitutional rights. However, social security does not only refer to social insurance mechanisms, such as welfare systems. Nor should it be confused with other forms of social protection, such as social assistance mechanisms. Without excluding them, the right to social security has a broader scope, as it addresses the general issue of security against all forms of poverty, but also relates to the dilemmas of a lack of minimally adequate opportunities for decent well-being, human contact and social inclusion. The human right to social security has immediate and direct interfaces with civil rights and political rights, and also with economic rights, as it directly involves issues of work and employment, the role of families, and particularly women, children and the elderly. On the other hand, it is one of the most politicized rights today. The approach offered in this course takes into account these multiple current approaches in order to deepen the study of the Brazilian social security system, its main normative contours and the most important barriers that need to be overcome in order to make this human right a reality.

Considering that education, understood as teaching, research and extension, is a fundamental social right of every citizen and aims to guarantee the full development of the citizen for life - not just literacy, nor merely content or technical, but integrating the multiple identities of each person and that education must be linked to the world of work and social practice, the subject aims and proposes to study education as a material right of a dual nature (objective right and subjective right), through the conceptual contribution of its basic elements and its highest objectives. As essential elements, the course will investigate: 1. The historical, philosophical, legal and political recognition of the nature of education as a fundamental and social right (fundamentality), based on its history, normativity (treaties, international conventions and Brazilian constitutions and others in the comparative universe); 2. The mission of education to prepare every human being for autonomous life, with an analytical, critical and participatory democratic capacity (critical politicality and sociality), through the conceptual study of democracy and participation, as well as investigating the structuring, conduct, monitoring and social control of the public policy cycle; 3. The structuring and functioning of Brazilian education, based on the constitutional distribution of competences and historical or current Brazilian educational public policies, adopted or to be adopted, identified with basic education (early childhood education or pre-school, primary education, secondary education - traditional or professional - and youth and adult education) and/or higher education. Inclusive special education and indigenous education will also be considered. The study will include an analysis of the Constitutional Education System, the National Education Guidelines and Bases Law (Law No. 9.394/96), the National Education System (SNE), the structuring goals of the National Education Plan (PNE), the national curriculum parameters, training itineraries and national and/or regional education policies.

The aim of this course is to identify the reasons for the justification and foundation of the Principle of Equality and Non-Discrimination in the realization of Fundamental Social Rights by the Public Administration, as well as the means placed at its disposal for sufficient protection of the guarantee of such rights in the current Brazilian political/economic/social conjuncture and conjuncture, not forgetting the necessary comparison with other countries, not least because Brazil is linked to the realization of the sustainable development goals of the UN Agenda 2030. The course thus aims to study the main foundational theoretical frameworks of the declarations of will made by the Public Administration in the protection of and equal access for all to the Fundamental Social Rights established in the Federal Constitution, and how they can be integrated into the Brazilian legal system, as well as evaluating the theoretical and practical instruments for interpreting and applying the legal system with the aim of making this non-discrimination effective. In this sense, the following elements will be addressed: a) Identify and address the founding theoretical bases of State Theory and the formation of Public Administration, as well as the restructuring of contemporary Public Administration. b) Identify and address the theoretical bases of Democracy models. c) Address the Principle of Equality and Non-Discrimination in State action. d) Address the economic and public management aspects for the realization of Social Fundamental Rights in an isonomic manner. e) Identify which decision-making activities (administrative acts and processes) of the Public Administration serve to explore the conditions and possibilities for the effective protection/enforcement of these rights in the context of social pragmatics.
