RESUMO

This dissertation aims to analyze the Constitutional Principle of Free Competition, specifically regarding its role as fact the limits the abuse of economical power. In order to accomplish that goal, it was necessary to define what economical power is and in what moment the application of that power turned out to be abusive; but not putting apart other aspects that concern that issue, such as: the general definition of power and its relations with the law system. It was also analyzed, in a general way, the legal principles, considering the conception of the word principle, its own evolutional and normative origin, the distinction between principles and rules, the notion of legal system and the relevance of the principles concerning the societys evolution. So, the following step consisted in studying some general aspects related to the competition, aiming to better understand the role played by the principle inserted into the article 170, incision IV, of the Brazilian Constitution. Having this in mind, an approach was made to the historical evolution of the competition until now, the etymological origin of the words competition and rivalry, the accurate definition of what free competition is, and to other relevant aspects. In doing so, in the last chapter, which is the kernel of this paper, the Constitutional Principle of Competition and its contribution to the limitation to the economical power has been explained in details, and also clarified its content, its interests that effectively protect itself, its distinction from the postulate of free initiative, its pragmatic character and its efficacy, but not forgetting the other matters related to the issue, and that are equally important, they are: the role of the State in defense of the free competition, the action of the agencies that regulate the maintenance of a healthy market, the process of concentration, the defense of the competition and the influence of the tax incentive toward the competition.
