Resumo:This paper aims to reflect on the complex phenomenon of politicization of the Supreme Court. In the paths that range from judicial activism to judicial populism, we seek to work each conception in the light of the theory of judicial reputation.

Thus, the behavioral parameters are changed directly impacting the decision content.
