The jurisdictional function of a country plays an important role in the resolution of family conflicts, causing a high number of lawsuits. However, the ability to resolve conflicts of this nature is not exclusive to the judiciary, it being possible for other ways, with help of a third party other than the State. Given the growing number of disputes that can be resolved extra judicially, the need for more investment in the development of other means of conflict resolution, such as mediation, to achieve social peace remains evident. This article aims to compare some aspects of mediation in Brazil and Portugal, seeking to focus especially on family conflicts, investigating similarities, equivalences and differences between the family mediation guiding principles in Brazil and Portugal. For this effect, it was privileged bibliographical and legislative research, with qualitative comparative analysis, which led to the conclusion that, despite the differences, the two diplomas are very similar, showing equivalences and few absences, which do not compromise the basis of mediation.
La función jurisdiccional de un país desempeña un papel importante en la resolución de los conflictos familiares, provocando un elevado número de pleitos. Sin embargo, la capacidad de resolver conflictos de esta naturaleza no es exclusiva del poder judicial, siendo posible por otras vías, con ayuda de un tercero distinto del Estado. Dado el creciente número de conflictos que pueden resolverse extrajudicialmente, sigue siendo evidente la necesidad de invertir más en el desarrollo de otros medios de resolución de conflictos, como la mediación, para lograr la paz social. Este artículo pretende comparar algunos aspectos de la mediación en Brasil y Portugal, buscando centrarse especialmente en los conflictos familiares, investigando las similitudes, equivalencias y diferencias entre los principios rectores de la mediación familiar en Brasil y Portugal. Para ello, se ha privilegiado la investigación bibliográfica y legislativa, con un análisis comparativo cualitativo, que llevó a la conclusión de que, a pesar de las diferencias, los dos diplomas son muy similares, mostrando equivalencias y pocas ausencias, que no comprometen las bases de la mediación.
