Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the close relationship between the constitutional principle of efficiency and the constitutional objective of development. It is demonstrated that despite the criticisms that, as a principle, it is not applicable to the legal system, because of theories presented under the utilitarian approach or its economic value, efficiency proves to be a powerful instrument of development the economic concepts are used to does rereading the legal system as mentors, not doctrinators, in such a way that the pursuit of efficiency contributes greatly to the enhancement of the freedoms that under the Amartya Sen perspective are ends and means for development.
