Acesso à Justiça: Inovações, Políticas Públicas e Desafios da Amazônia Brasileira

Abstract

This article analyzes recent studies on access to justice and the challenges of judicial services in the Brazilian Amazon. Its aim is to examine the judiciary’s latest efforts to expand or restrict access to justice in this region, using a literature review as the research method. The findings suggest that modernization, digital justice, artificial intelligence, alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, tax system efficiency, good governance, free legal aid, innovation, and digital governance contribute to improving access to justice. However, lack of digital inclusion, poor or nonexistent internet access, geographic difficulties, judicial decisions that could hinder access to justice, and social vulnerability are factors that hinder access and create an exclusionary justice system. The conclusion points to a growing trend toward a connected and technology-driven judiciary, supported by cutting-edge tools such as artificial intelligence, leading to significant improvements in procedural efficiency and public outreach.
