Promoting the self-care of the dispenser of justice

Abstract

The imparter of justice faces challenges in his work performance generated, among other factors, by the need to reformulate the rational argumentative model to
add non-rational factors to the task of judging, these aspects would be directly related to socio-emotional competencies. The ethics of self-care would be installed in the turn that occurs from a jurisprudential ethics of duty to a jurisprudential ethics of virtue. In addition to this conceptual shift, judges experience an increase in work stress that accentuates the health risks of those who impart justice. In order to seek an alternative to these new labor challenges, the objective of this communication was to present the results of a pedagogical experience of the judge’s self-care development based on the
epimeleia heautou.
