Vol. 2 No. 1 (2025): Revista de Direito da Amazônia

PRESENTATION

It is with great enthusiasm that we celebrate the rebirth of the Revista de Direito da Amazônia (ISSN: 2675-8660), a historical milestone for the legal community of Northern Brazil.

This special edition, which honors the illustrious Justice Raimundo Vidal Pessôa through the first award that bears his name, represents a unique moment in the academic production of Amazonas, gathering scientific research that reflects the complexity and richness of regional legal thought.

The thematic breadth of the presented works—ranging from Philosophy and General Theory of Fundamental Rights to the intersections between the Rule of Law and Technology—demonstrates intellectual maturity and a commitment to contemporary issues fundamental to the development of the Amazon region.

Special mention must be made of the inclusion of research lines focused on invisible groups, human rights, and socio-environmental issues—themes particularly relevant in the Amazonian context, where the protection of traditional communities and the preservation of natural heritage are intertwined with sustainable development.

The Revista de Direito da Amazônia establishes itself as a vital space for dialogue between academia and legal praxis, contributing to the formation of a genuinely Amazonian legal thought that understands the peculiarities and challenges of this unique region of the planet.

This publication represents more than an academic journal: it is an instrument of social transformation and regional development, fostering scientific production and providing visibility to the excellence of local legal thought.

The relaunch of this important vehicle for the dissemination of legal knowledge reaffirms the commitment of the Amazonas Judiciary to academic excellence and regional development, consolidating itself as a reference for researchers, judges, and legal practitioners throughout Northern Brazil.
