Brazil, the Americas and the world: public opinion and foreign policy in 2013

Abstract

The objective of this research project is to describe and analyze public perception of Brazil in relation to our foreign policy and international politics. It is part of an international academic partnership, which includes research teams from several Latin American countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico and Peru. The overall coordination of the project (Las Americas y el Mundo) is in charge of the Centro de Investigación y Teaching Economics (CIDE) in Mexico. The international project seeks to understand the perceptions and attitudes of the public about international issues that have gained greater importance in this century and capture the reaction of society to the changing international and domestic impacts. The study covers a wide range of topics (cultural, economic, social, political, security), levels (bilateral, regional and global) related to international relations and foreign policy.
