Abstract

The current paper analyses the different stages, following the popular distinction suggested by Triepel, that the Brazilian political parties needed to cross until their juridical consolidation under the current Federal Constitution of 1988. The main goal pursued is to show the direct impact for the consolidation of the brazilian democratic system caused by the attitude of the legislator and the others political operators, by both ignoring and diminishing the importance of political parties in his own legal system.
