Brazil Africa Diplomatic Relations 1961 - 2000

PRESENTATION PRESENTATION The charts that are exposed in the present working paper were produced in the framework of the research developed by Dr. Gladys Lechini concerning the relations among Africa, Argentina and Brazil. Some of these tables have been included in the books “Argentina y África en el espejo de Brasil : ¿política por impulsos o construcción de una política exterior?”, CLACSO, Buenos Aires (2006) and “Argentina and South Africa facing the challenge of the XXI Century: Brazil as the mirror image”, Rosario, UNR Editora (2011). PRECSUR decided to share the complete series of charts because it considers that the information about commercial exchange, diplomatic visits and official agreements is essential to understand the development of the links among states over the years, which is a main objective of the investigation group. Rosario, January 2015.
