Título: Metaforizando a alteridade: islamofobia e migração no primeiro governo Donald John Trump (2017-2021) Autor(es): Regueira, Briza Quaresma Primeiro Orientador: Mendes, José Aurivaldo Sacchetta Ramos Abstract: The object of study of this dissertation is Islamophobia in international migrations of Muslims to the United States of America (USA) during the first term of Donald John Trump. Its main objective was to analyze the effects resulting from the mobilization of an Islamophobic discursive-metaphorical repertoire in North American immigration policy directed at Muslim migrants, during the first Trump administration. To meet this purpose, the theoretical-methodological bias employed was qualitative, interpretative and interdisciplinary in nature. The areas of International Relations and Linguistics come together to coordinate the approaches of Nicholas Onuf's constructivism and Critical Applied Linguistics, under Faircloughian Critical Discourse Analysis. Faircloughian critical discourse analysis serves as a method for processing the discursive data investigated here. The sample selected for methodological application involves six texts-speeches of a more legal nature, of which two are executive orders, two are proclamations and two are legislative instruments that guide the process of formulating US immigration policies. It also considers three of Trump's speeches on migration issues and Muslim populations. The guiding thread of the analysis is the idea of metaphor, which alludes to three intertwined processes of constituting the representation of otherness: ontology, constitution and direction. It starts with an argument that favors the perspective that the international is a dimension composed of a set of norms, behaviors, ideas, discourses, practices and institutions, but that it is also a sphere in which the symbolic predominates. In this context, it is worth highlighting that Islamophobia is expressed as a perennial norm that sustains a relationship of asymmetry and subordination between Muslims and Westerners/Christians.

Título: A Cooperação Sul-Sul em Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação: O Papel das Instituições de Ensino Superior Brasileiras na Cooperação Brasil-África Autor(es): Kiraly, Guilherme Robles Primeiro Orientador: Almeida, Elga Lessa de Abstract: Within the interfaces between International Relations and Science, Technology, and Innovation (ST&I), this research seeks to understand the role of Brazilian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the cooperation between Brazil and African countries in ST&I, considering the growing relevance of this field and the emergence of new actors in international cooperation. The general objective is to analyze the role of HEIs in the formulation and implementation of cooperation initiatives, as they are recognized as central actors in national ST&I strategies. Methodologically, this is a qualitative, analytical, and exploratory study based on the documentary analysis of international acts signed between Brazil and African countries. To identify these acts, the institutional repository of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was used, selecting those that explicitly mentioned public Higher Education Institutions. Once mapped, a screening process was conducted to select those that contained explicit elements of ST&I. The results indicate that the initiatives are concentrated in capacity-building and technology transfer activities, particularly in the agricultural, mining, and natural resources sectors, reflecting alignment with national productive interests but revealing limitations in terms of information availability, resources, and project implementation. It is concluded that HEIs play a strategic role in South-South Cooperation in ST&I, although their performance is often incomplete, discontinuous, and conditioned by political, structural, and economic dynamics. The effectiveness of cooperation requires institutional continuity, transparency, and the strengthening of endogenous capacities in partner countries.

Título: A relação entre a China e os Países Africanos da Língua Oficial Portuguesa (PALOP) 2000-2020: uma análise sobre as trocas comerciais e investimentos Autor(es): Cambanco, Deuinalom Fernando Primeiro Orientador: Kraychete, Elsa Sousa Abstract: This Phd thesis is one of International Relations field, which central study object is the relations between China and the African Portuguese Speaking Countries (PALOP, in portuguese), namely: Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and São Tomé and Príncipe. Its main objective is to analyze, based on approaches and interpretations of the process of capital accumulation and exportation, the trade exchanges and investments of China in these countries, focusing on Angola and Mozambique, the largest and richest of these countries. China's relationship with this African group of countries, as well as with Africa in general, started from the period of struggles for political independence. The Macau Forum, a mechanism articulated in 2003 by the Chinese government to strengthen and intensify economic and commercial relations with portuguese speaking countries, including the PALOP, boosted and renewed the Asian giant's relations with these nations. Since the creation of the aforementioned Forum in 2003, in which China uses the Macau Special Administrative Region (MSAR) as a platform for cooperation with Portuguese speaking countries, once it was a former portuguese former colony, there has been a considerable and regular increase in both trade exchanges and investments made by Beijing in these countries. To understand the reasons for this increase, the theoretical framework used was the different Marxist interpretations those analyze and explain the dynamics of capital accumulation and exportation, including Marx himself, Rosa Luxemburg, Lenin, Harvey and others. Despite having a socialistic system backround since its founding in 1949 revolution led by Mao Zedong, the Asian giant has vigorously emerged into the contemporary global capitalist system, especially since the implementation of structural economic reforms under Deng Xiaoping administration, who replaced Mao after the revolutionary leader death. With the reforms, Beijing promoted profound changes in its foreign policy doctrine and opened itself up to global capital, attracting several players interested in its domestic market, including multinational and international corporations, obtaining from them, with the strategic implementation of Special Economic Zones (SEZ) – the know-how and necessary capital to develop its own economic and productive capacities. After achieving this goal, by accumulating a lot of capital and developing industrial capacity, Beijing adopted, in the late 1990s, the “Going Out” policy, encouraging Chinese companies and capital to find new markets in order to sell their production as well as to open up the possibilities of import facilitation of raw materials, mainly energetic one, to sustain the accelerated economic development process which the country came to experiment. Africa, including the PALOP, rich in raw materials and natural resources and which experienced a period of economic revitalization since the beginning of the millennium, became main target for the fulfillment of this strategy. These and other perceptions corroborate the thesis defended in this work, that China's relationship with the PALOP, particularly Angola and Mozambique, despite contemplating other interests, is essentially limited to meeting these challenges faced by the Asian giant. For the collection and analysis of the data that led to these conclusions, the work used the exploratory-qualitative methodology, making use essentially of bibliographic, documentary and explanatory techniques, both for the collection and for the analysis of the data/findings (primary and secondary) used.

Título: Geopolítica da razão afrodiaspórica: olhares e reflexões sobre intercâmbios entre culturas sonoras em África e na diáspora atlântica Autor(es): Silva, Laurisabel Maria de Ana da Primeiro Orientador: Mendes, José Aurivaldo Sacchetta Ramos Abstract: In a moment that signals profound transformations in the model of relations developed within the international community—where countries have established commercial, economic, and development cooperation connections which are now under threat—a new ordering of the system seems to be taking shape. The concept of sovereignty also appears to be under reformulation, one of the characteristics that provide the foundation for the concept of the State and that once seemed consolidated in studies of Social Sciences and International Relations. Within this panorama, the analysis of the constitution of a rationale for Black diasporas located in the Americas, in close contact with African and Indigenous populations and heritages, through the study of cooperation relations for development in the cultural sector, becomes important for the (re)construction of these ties on new grounds. It emerges as an alternative for understanding the actions carried out among Global South countries, including the rapprochement between African nations and Black diasporas in the Americas. To this end, documentary research was conducted, analyzing reports from various events aimed at strengthening relations between Black diasporas and the African continent, as well as documents that established bilateral agreements between Brazil—a major Black diaspora—and African continent. Brazilian sound cultures were also examined, notably schools of samba and Afro blocos, which have reflected and continue to reflect the creation of imaginaries about specific countries and the African continent itself during the periods of these events and agreements, mirroring the interests of States and organizations, particularly those connected to Pan-Africanist thought and Ubuntu philosophy. For this purpose, references from Pan Africanist, gender, ethnomusicology, history, post-structuralist, and decolonial studies were employed.
