The dynamics of the global system have changed substantially since the end of the Cold War. While the present wave of South-South cooperation is not without precedent, the Non-Aligned Movement, for instance, has generated new links among developing states and is underscored by a combination of economic, political, and security interests that have transformed the landscape of international cooperation and created new pressures on existing global governance institutions. Whilst there is much literature on China and India, there is surprisingly little on Brazil including its primary trans-regional dimension with Africa. This book fills this gap by analyzing how Brazilian interests in Africa have changed across the past decade, and arguing that Brazil has acquired not only new economic interests in the continent, but also a greater stake in normative debates about security and development in which Africa plays a central role. This book is written in a clear, engaging language, making it suitable for classroom use in graduate and advanced undergraduate university courses.
