Abstract

The article adopts the theoretical framework of access to justice and, from the perspective of CAPPELLETTI (1981) and GALANTER (2010), analyses the dispute about lack of space on nursery schools in the City of São Paulo. The article’s main questions are: (i) has individual and group litigation being a mechanism of social transformation by enforcing rights and/or (ii) has it found an accessible Judiciary with rational and appropriate procedural techniques? During the development of the research, the article also analyses how repeat players behave in group litigation, when searching for entitle educational rights and what are their advantages inside Courts.
