RESUMO

This research aims the identification and the analysis of the paradox between the use of the principle of affectivity in the determination of parental relations and the definition of paternity used by the Judiciary in legal actions, based on the DNA, what has caused a dichotomy in the traditional concept of paternity. Analysing the biologist thesis, that takes into consideration only the genetic tie between fathers and sons, and the sociological thesis, that is based on the affect, it was proved, in some cases, that the biologist thesis is not the best solution for the childrenâs interest, deserving to be used only in the obligations field. To reach these conclusions, the critical method was used in the theoretical studies and in the statistical analysis of the data researched in Brazilian Courts of Justice, demonstrating the difference between the theory and the practice in parental law. Solutions were presented for some hypothetical conflicts between the biological tie and the affective one, using successfully the principle of affectivity as a more adequate criteria to form relations between parents and sons
