Abstract
Delays in judicial decisions and unequal access to legal services expose the fragility of the Brazilian Justice system. Innovation is considered as an alternative to improve this scenario, believing that once the innovation is adopted, it can push the performance of organization in the justice system. This article proposes a theoretical-methodological framework that indicates the dimensions influencing the innovation process in these organizations. It assumes that actors, facts and policy variables, of a social and economic nature, linked to different levels of analysis - institutional, inter-organizational, organizational and individual - influence innovation in justice. The feeling of identity and common goals can stimulate or restrict interaction and cooperation between actors inserted in the culture of norms and values specific to the justice system. The framework was based on the theory of innovation and organizational institutionalism, identifying five dimensions that can affect innovation in organizations of justice: institutional environment; organizational resources; cooperative relationship; leadership; and innovative behavior. Ways to test the propositions by empirical research are suggested.
