TECHNICAL PUBLICATIONS FOR LAW FIELD

Abstract

Objective of the study: The objective of the study is to present guidelines that allow both the elaboration and the evaluation of articles of a technical or technological nature for the Law area Methodological Approach: This study, of a qualitative and prescriptive nature, is based upon secondary and documentary data and information. Relevance: Despite the applied character of theories in Law, doctrines with accentuated subjective hermeneutic nature, have traditionally induced the daily practice in justice. Practice thus tends to follow doctrines with greater acceptance. New approaches, however, have been constrained because of low familiarity of practitioners with conflict settlement structures more suited to legal field. Only very recently, with the advent of Professional Graduate Studies, publications of technical nature, which reflect methods and techniques more in line with the nature of interventions in the Law field, have increased significance in the Law literature. It thus needs guidelines to help increase acceptance by academia and practitioners in the Law field. Main results: indicate an increase in technical publications for researchers and Law practitioners. In addition, there is a growing importance of this type of intellectual production in the CAPES evaluation system. The contextual analysis of technical production also indicates a growing interest among Law practitioners. Thus, considering the conceptual confusion that still prevails between scientific articles and technical articles, guidelines are suggested to drive the elaboration of technical articles in the area of Law. Theoretical/methodological contributions: The proposal of a structural design for the elaboration of technical or technological articles. Conclusion: Although the Law areas use technical publication, there are no guidelines, from the CAPES technical area of Law, to write technical or technological articles. Thus, it is imperative to organize guidelines to support researchers and Law practitioners to prepare technical pieces exploring practices and interventions in day-to-day activities. In this way, we believe to contribute to the consolidation of basic standards to support the writing of technical literature in the Law field.
