“…Paulo Alsina Júnior (2017) shows that regarding importance of the principles of non-intervention, sovereign equality of states, and peaceful settlement of disputes for the Brazilian foreign policy, the country on several times refused to participate on peacekeeping operations that were established under the Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter. The author argues that another important characteristic of Brazilian multilateral diplomacy is the constant reiteration of the link between poverty and conflict.…”

A presente dissertação tem como principal objetivo analisar o engajamento do Brasil nos debates normativos sobre segurança internacional, em especial os que envolvem a temática da reconstrução estatal e a construção da paz, enquanto um agente contestador através da construção e da prática do "Brazilian Way of Peacebuilding". Para realizar tal análise partiu-se do debate sobre normas nas Relações Internacionais para entender como uma norma surge, se consolida e pode ser contestada. Assim, para analisar essa atuação normativa do Brasil buscou-se analisar dois processos de reconstrução estatal e consolidação da paz nos quais a presença brasileira é e foi bastante significativa tanto em termos militares quanto em termos políticos: Guiné-Bissau e Haiti. A partir desses casos foi buscado entender como que o "Brazilian Way of Peacebuilding" contesta e, no limite, legitima uma visão tradicional de construção da paz. Por fim, são apresentadas as consequências dessas práticas para as normas de segurança internacional.ABSTRACT Drumond, Iago Gama; Kenkel, Kai Michael (Advisor). Brazil as a peacebuilding norm entrepreneur in Haiti and Guinea-Bissau. Rio de Janeiro, 2019, 130p. Dissertação de Mestrado -Instituto de Relações Internacionais, Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro.The main objective of this dissertation is to analyze Brazil's engagement in the normative debates on international security, especially those that involve the theme of Statebuilding and peacebuilding, as a contestation agent through the construction and practice of the "Brazilian Way of Peacebuilding". In order to carry out this analysis, we started with the debate on norms in International Relations to understand how a norm emerges, is consolidated and can be contested. Thus, in order to analyze this normative action in Brazil, we sought to analyze two processes of statebuilding and peacebuilding in which the Brazilian presence is and was quite significant both in military and in political terms: Guinea-Bissau and Haiti. From these cases it was sought to understand how the Brazilian Way of Peacebuilding contests and, in the limit, legitimizes a traditional vision of peacebuilding. Finally, the consequences of these practices for international security norms are presented.
