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.

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.

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.

Then, it is possible to show how the agribusiness can exercise this influence, since making the big parliament on the Legislator power, too occupying strategics cargos on the governmental structure and in international events commissions, to using the marketing to convince the society. Environmental and climate questions are directly linked with agribusiness interests, and the agribusiness is one of the most important Brazillian exportation sectors, constructing the country’s economy, generating employment. On this work we analyzed Brazilian’s participation in the climate Parties Meeting during Bolsonaro’s government. Here it is possible to show how this class fracture from Brazilian capitalist class have been being on the power block, putting selfie interests as collective and public politic interest to national society.
