Previous issue date: 2012-03-28 / The present work aims to conform the Brazilian criminal law, especially the offenses against the honor, to a contemporary understanding of freedom of expression. First of all, it was established how serious is the threat posed by these laws to this fundamental freedom, conclusion which inspired its study in the American constitutional system, where the First Amendment has a large "breathing space". Still, by analyzing the First Amendment doctrines, the study of criminal defamation, particularly at state level, and by understanding the actual malice standard, it was discovered that the truth and the right to critique are protected by freedom of expression and awarded by the exchange of ideas in a democracy. Finally, it was found that truth and justification form the core of this fundamental right in Brazil on grounds similar to American law, ensuring the debate in society, protecting it from possible criminal actions filed by public officials, public figures or even individuals involved in matters of public interest which have as their goal to deter criticism and censor the truth / O presente trabalho visa a readequar o direito penal brasileiro, principalmente os crimes contra a honra, a uma compreens?o contempor?nea de liberdade de express?o. Primeiramente, foi constatada a seriedade da amea?a que essas normas representam contra tal liberdade fundamental, conclus?o que inspirou seu estudo no sistema constitucional americano, onde a Primeira Emenda possui um amplo espa?o de respiro. Ainda, atrav?s da an?lise de doutrinas da Primeira Emenda, do estudo da criminal defamation, notadamente em ?mbito estadual, e da compreens?o do standard actual malice, descobriu-se que a verdade e o direito ? cr?tica s?o elementos protegidos pela liberdade de express?o e resguardados pelo interc?mbio de ideias, em uma democracia. Por fim, verificou-se que a verdade e a justifica??o comp?em o n?cleo essencial desse direito fundamental no Brasil com fundamentos semelhantes aos do direito americano, para assegurar o debate em sociedade, resguardando-o de eventuais a??es criminais ajuizadas por funcion?rios p?blicos, figuras p?blicas, ou mesmo particulares envolvidos em assuntos de interesse p?blico que tenham por objeto coibir a cr?tica e censurar a verdade
