Description
Summary:The Senate Law Project number 315/2015, that advocates that animals are not things, and theme of study in this article under the optic of the socio-environmental law estate. The hypothesis developed is that the new juridic order launched with the Constitution of 1988 determines the maximum environmental protection and the revision of the equivalency of animals and things or objects. for comparative reasons are quoted the articles of the french civil code, of the german civil code and the swiss civil code which treat the same matter. The conclusion is that the law project under analysis if approved will represent an important, but still insufficient improvement to follow the rules and principles of environmental protection in the paradigma of the socio-environmental law estate. The deductive method is used with bibliography and the analysis of brazilian and foreign law.
