Abstract

It has become commonplace to talk about a silent revolution in the Brazilian Judiciary for which the widespread use of ICT has been of great impact. In this chapter, we examine how ICT made its way through and is shaping the future of the Brazilian Judiciary. The first part is dedicated to a brief description of the Brazilian judicial system. The second part is divided in three different moments, always related to the use of ICT in the courts. Initially, we exam the earlier experiences, mostly related to electoral matters. Then, we investigate the debate over the national PKI system and electronic process statutes. Finally, we take a look at different ICT initiatives, focusing especially on labor courts. In the final part, we draw some conclusions, trying to sketch a future agenda of research and listing some references for those willing to go further on the matter.
