Abstract

This work challenges the Brazilian official discourse on international development cooperation with the role that the government and other actors, such as business and civil society, play in this policy. The research aims to identify the real interests of Brazil in its strategy of cooperation and examine whether the insertion of Brazilian reality is less self-interest, as it is officially stated by Brazilian Foreign Ministry.
