A IDEOLOGIA COMO OBSTÁCULO

This paper addresses the ideological problems within legal theory, questioning how law, through language and axioms, conceals power relations. The objective is to understand the ideological mechanisms present in legal discourse, from the perspectives of semiotics, Marxist theory, and the critique of humanist theory, to unveil how law operates in the reproduction of the capitalist system and hinders the construction of emancipatory legal knowledge. This is critical-historical-dialectical research with qualitative data analysis. In the final considerations, it is highlighted that the analysis of legal ideology demands a complex relationship between language, axioms, and class relations, requiring a qualitative approach that reveals the mechanisms of domination.
