The purpose of this article is to show how crises undergone by the contemporary state influence the effectiveness of Fundamental Social Rights, and the principles of human dignity, and especially the principle of equality. With this, hopes to demonstrate that the fundamental rights may come in the form of constitutional principles or rules, and that the equality, as a first dimension fundamental right, cannot be understood by a purely formal subjective logic, inherent to liberalism. The conclusion is that it’s necessary that the State abandons a position of neutrality, which has a well proved insufficiency, and start to promote an material-objective equality.
