Brazil in the Afro-South American interregional mechanisms: : ideational diffusion and influence

The interregional dialogue between Africa and South America has been characterized by moments of high interactions and others of distance.

El diálogo interregional existente entre África y América Latina ha sido marcado por momentos de fuertes interacciones y otros de distanciamiento. A partir del año 2006 se inicia un período de aceleración de estos lazos marcado por la creación del foro Cumbre América del Sur-África (ASA) y por la revitalización de la Zona de Paz y de Seguridad en el Atlántico Sur (ZOPACAS) impulsados por Brasil. Este artículo cuestiona la relevancia estratégica que tuvieron estos foros interregionales afro-sur-americanos en la política exterior de Brasil y en su estrategia de inserción internacional durante el período 2006-2013, año de la última Cumbre del ASA en Malabo y a partir del cual se inicia una etapa de desaceleración. Se argumenta que el dinamismo que conoció el diálogo interregional entre las dos costas del Atlántico Sur ofreció nuevos espacios de acción en los cuales Brasil ejerció un liderazgo promoviendo a la vez sus propios intereses e impulsando una difusión de ideas (ideational diffusion) a través de una acción retórica.
