To illuminate this topic, authors Tullo Vigevani and Gabriel Cepaluni built an analytical framework which uses three concepts to examine Brazilian Foreign Policy changes over the years: (1) autonomy through distance, (2) autonomy through participation, and (3) autonomy through diversification. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe authors demonstrate that the Brazilian military regime sought to distance itself from powerful countries in order to keep its domestic sovereignty, while the Brazilian democratic regimes-especially the Cardoso administration-tried to increase international connections despite practicing a foreign policy defending the nation's autonomy in relation to the great powers. With the Lula administration, the country still seeks greater international relationships but through a diversification strategy concerning its partners abroad, therefore counterbalancing the influence of the great powers, especially the United States.","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47598382842007,"sku":"9780739128824","price":5722.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780739128824.webp?v=1775000625","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/brazilian-foreign-policy-in-changing-times-the-quest-for-autonomy-from-sarney-to-lula-9780739128824","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
