Formalism and Taxation
Contribution to Legal Rules and Formal Reasons in Tax Law
Keywords:
institutional decision model, legal formalism, particularism, recalcitrant experiencesAbstract
The present study examines the legal formalism as an institutional model of judgment, in which legal rules constitute autonomous and independent reasons for decision making. From a normative perspective, the article argues that the Brazilian constitutional system is aligned with a moderate formalism (presumptive positivism), in which legal rules function as entrenched probabilistic generalizations that offer resistance to their underlying justifications.
