COMMISSION ON LAND SOLUTIONS AND PROCEDURAL FLEXIBILITY AS INSTRUMENTS FOR THE PROPER HANDLING OF COLLECTIVE LAND CONFLICTS

Abstract

This article analyzes the integration between the Land Solutions Commissions, established by CNJ Resolution nº 510/2023, and the procedural flexibility mechanisms provided for in the Code of Civil Procedure as complementary instruments for the adequate handling of collective land disputes. The objective is to examine how this normative convergence provides a differentiated and structural approach to collective land disputes, overcoming traditional procedural rigidity. A descriptive and analytical methodology is adopted, focusing on the normative basis of the Commissions, their articulation with the principles of procedural adequacy of the Civil Procedure Code, and their potential for achieving consensual solutions. The research demonstrates that the Commissions' actions, combined with procedural flexibility, represent a significant advance in Brazilian judicial policy by promoting modern procedural techniques, fostering multi-party dialogue, and contributing to the structural resolution of collective land disputes, in line with human rights and the social function of property. It is concluded that this normative integration offers procedural tools more suited to the complexity of collective land conflicts, favoring participatory and sustainable solutions.
