Abstract
The poor are victims of prejudiced and discriminatory practices, which are expressions of violence and motivated solely by their economic condition. For this reason, the theme of the present scientific work was inspired by the studies of the Adela Cortina on aporophobia, a term created to designate aversion of the poor people. In this context, it is intended, throughout this academic reflection, to demonstrate, through deductive and bibliographic research, that citizens are, by virtue of the constitutional principle of fraternity, impelled to adopt fraternal practices of recognition, respect and consideration for the poor people and, in the end, maintain that the fraternity is an antidote against aporophobia.
