As relações bilaterais e multilaterais sino-brasileiras: perspectivas para o começo do novo milênio

Abstract

Brazil and China have taken a leading role at the regional and global levels at the beginning of the new millennium. The strong political and economic dimension that both states have reflects a moment of structural transition of the international system. In this context, of reordering powers in international relations, a Sino-Brazilian approach evidences the new identity of the international system. That is, the search for a more just, peaceful, pragmatic complex of relations that seeks to break free of any kind of oppression in the international field. In this way, the present research aims to understand the construction of Sino-Brazilian relations in a bilateral and multilateral sense, observing patterns of behavior of each State from the beginning of their relations, in order to understand the logics that guide the important partnerships between Brazil and China in the 21st century.
