What happens behind the doors of the Palace (P<em>alacio de Tribunales<\/em>)? How are the most delicate rulings solved? This book began with the idea of answering those questions and exposing the work of the Supreme Court to the citizens, to those who are not lawyers or don\u2019t know the language of law. But it ended up becoming something bigger. Based on important cases, the book analyzes the conduct of diverse, multicultural societies, the articulation of conflicts and consensus, the protection of freedom of expression, the ability to freely decide our lifestyles, the debate on equality of subsidies or opportunities, social exclusion, environmental protection and the rule of law. Ricardo Lorenzetti, president of the Supreme Court from 2004 to 2018, narrates in this book, in a kind, \u201ceasy-to-read\u201d language, with few (if not any) legal terms, and in the first person, the unknown details of the most complex cases that the Argentine Justice had to face in the last years and that gave birth to a rereading of the Constitution, facing the most acute problems of our society. The book shows the debates inside and outside the Court and marks the great guidelines of the 21st century\u2019s new cycle of governance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2077 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ricardolorenzetti.com\/img\/02-The-global-financial-cri-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Prologue \u201cThe Global Financial Crisis and The Need For Consumer Regulation: New Developments on International Protection\u201d<\/strong><br \/>\n(<em>Pr\u00f3logo en<\/em> <em>&#8220;The Global Financial Crisis and The Need For Consumer Regulation: New Developments on International Protection&#8221;<\/em>)<br \/>\nAsociaci\u00f3n de Derecho Internacional Privado (ASADIP) Facultade de Direito da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul<br \/>\nPublishing house (in portuguese): Orquesta Editora<br \/>\nYear 2012<\/p>\n<p>The choice of this topic for the elaboration of a research book is not only right due to its topicality, but also because it provides an opportunity to reflect on the way in which the law addresses these problems.

Cases do not conform to the rules, the laws do not provide solutions, the legal theory seems to be uncomfortable and, above all, the legal system lost credibility.

Throughout this work, we try to demonstrate that this adaptation is incorrect because we are not in the presence of an analogous fact, but a completely different one. Therefore, it requires an appropriate theory &#8230; Environmental goods are not mere empirical facts that can be legislated, but they are part of a complex system that motivates its own regulations and classifying orders. All it takes is to observe the international treaties and national laws existing in the world on soils, seas, drinking water, glaciers, flora and fauna, pure air, global warming, species in extinction and others similar to appreciate the insufficiency of the analogy.

Operational analysis is a methodological definition. It is important to conceive it as an instrument to solve problems. For this reason, we\u2019ve dedicated ourselves to study how legal decisions are made, which include those decisions that arise from judges, the Legislative power, the Executive power and also from the intermediate institutions that adjudicate goods. The fact that great judges, philosophers and jurists from numerous countries have dedicated their efforts to this issue shows that it is of the utmost importance.

Opinions seem seduced by novelty. The Supreme Court of the United States demonstrated its admiration for chat sites and websites, defining them as \u201cdemocratic forums\u201d. Along the same line, other authors have suggested that the Internet is a &#8220;democratic paradise&#8221;, or even a way of reaffirming the decline of political participation.
