Abstract
This paper aims to understand the presence of Science, Technology and Innovation’s (CTI) theme in the international agenda of Brazil in the period from 1990 to 2010 in the light of the guidelines of Brazilian Foreign Policy and the Policies of Science, Technology and Innovation (PCTIs) of the governments covered. The working hypothesis is that in accordance with the different political-economic guidelines of the governments under analysis there is a different approach to STI in Brazil's international agenda. The research results demonstrated that in the light of the STIPs, the approach to STI in Brazil's international agenda has continued even in governments located in different political spectrum. Nevertheless, in the light of the foreign policy guidelines variations are observed between the governments of the 1990s and the governments of the 2000s. For the 2000s, it is observed a higher Brazilian international activity in the field of STI was perceived as changes in the international profile of Brazil (with greater proactivity and diversification of its activities) have occurred as results of a new political-economic orientation in the 2000s. Although it is not possible to identify a prioritization of the STI theme when compared to other agendas on the country's international agenda, Brazil, indeed, has changed its international performance in the field of CTI in the 2000s.
