<p>Facing the intense advancement of neoconstitutionalism statements, not only in the constitutional regulation, but also in the actions of constitutional judges, we are in a new stage, marked by the so called judicial activism. Far from the application of standards or rules, the application of principles and values, gives judges a powerful tool that can result in a marked discretion, which in turn can make judicial decisions to service private interest or ideologies. Considering the undeniable reality of the national legal scenery, it is also important to analyze the connotations of the constitutionalization of private law, as a reaffirmation of the mainstreaming of the state in society and a threat to individual liberties.</p>
