This thesis aims to trace the general lines that permeated the creation of the CPLP in 1996 and its performance since then, now that are 12 years of her formation. The goal is to identify the possible strategies and positions to be taken by member States of the international community in the twenty-first century. We want to verify the extent to which the CPLP is a community that has played an important role in the international arena in a world increasingly globalized. Aims to trace the outline and design the outlines the relationship between Brazil, Portugal and African countries whose official language is Portuguese (PALOP\'s). For this, we investigated what were the political landscape, historical and social in which germinated the idea of creating a community like the CPLP, what is its role in the international community, and which are the of who is involved. The central question of this research was: how the CPLP is active in the defense of economic interests, social and cultural rights of the countries that compose it, which together represent more than 200 million \"citizens of the world\" to speak the portuguese language? We measure the degree of identity among the peoples that make up this community and for this we use the construction of a statistical index that allows to know what is the degree in which the identity of these peoples is based and which reflects it to the intra-state and inter-state relations. We will see that the constructivist approach of International Relations is the theoretical key to understanding the CPLP, in this work, and that the analysis of post-Cold War scenario, somehow, does not explain the peculiarity of the CPLP. Finally, this thesis draw the possibles strategies of this Community in the future and point out that the criticism most commonly made by different actors for her performance till today (AU) | |
