DEATH BENEFIT: CONCURRENCE BETWEEN THE WIDOW AND THE EX-WIFE RECEIVING FOOD PENSION
Abstract
This article aims to analyze critically the social security legislation regarding the death benefit, specifically in relation to the hypothesis of competition of the surviving spouse and the former spouse receiving alimony. In addition, it aims to analyze the two dominant jurisprudential positions in the subject, the first which favors the interaction between social security law and civil law, supporting the maintenance of the amounts due as food in the death pension, and the second which sustains the prevailing social security legislation, with equal conditions among the beneficiaries. Finally, this paper defends the prevalence of the first position, through revision and legislative amendment, adjusting the social security norm to the postulates of justice and equity.
