Resumen
It is the purpose of this paper to evaluate the elements of change and continuity in the conduct of Brazil's foreign policy from the Geisel administration onwards. The context from which that policy originated is firstly analyzed. The authors argue that the nature of the Brazilian foreign policy can only be understood in reference to a changing world order and the attempt to consolidate a particular type of a political and economic domestic order. Three different levels of analysis are defined next and an effort is made to point out the permanent and new aspects of each, to wit: the relationships with the United States both in the political-military and the economic areas; the relationships with other advanced capitalist nations, and the relationships with the Third World, particularly with Latin America. The authors' conclusion is that, in a general sense, pragmatism responds to the needs and limitations of the political and economic domestic model of development. However, there exists substantial differences in the style and priorities of foreign policy between the Geisel and Figueiredo administrations.
