The disruption in the communicative model, caused by the technological revolution of recent decades, in addition to elevating internet users to a position of protagonists in the circulation of information, has fostered the amplification of visceral, extremist and denialist discourses, triggering a progressive lack of interest in the truth of facts. In the political field, this phenomenon, called post-truth, perfected a surreptitious kind of democratic erosion, which acts to delegitimize the electoral process based on the cognitive manipulation of voters through the propagation of misleading content. Starting from these premises, the present study aims to conceptualize the informational disorder from the analysis of the TSE jurisprudence, related to the 2022 elections. The problem that arises can be synthesized in the following question: what are the main parameters pointed TSE, in the 2022 Elections, as necessary for the characterization of informational disorder with electoral relevance? The hypothesis is that, given the legislators inertia, the ascending institutional crisis and the serious democratic risks arising therefrom, the TSE adopted a more proactive stance in the 2022 Elections, assuming responsibility for setting the standards of electoral information disorder. The justification for carrying out this study is demonstrated, firstly, in its actuality and in the scarcity of academic research under this approach. Secondly, the research represents potential importance for society due to the prominence of discussions about the TSE's role in combating disinformation in the 2022 election campaign, especially because it means a paradigm shift in relation to the 2018 Elections. As for the methodology, the study is characterized by a qualitative approach, using the technique of surveying bibliographic and documentary data, as well as normative, jurisprudential and statistical analysis. This is a study with epistemological purposes, as it involves analysis and apprehension of concepts related to the researchobject, and it is also an exploratory research, as it seeks to describe and explain the main parameters extracted from the TSE jurisprudence, and interdisciplinary, as it performs the integration of constituent parts of Political Science and Law. The study confirms the existence of a common hard core revealing a conceptual evolution of the electoral disinformation institute.

The subject of energy security has always had prominent positions in the internal and external policies of countries due, on the one hand, to its importance for socioeconomic development, on the other hand, the problems it causes in the form of conflicts and environmental degradation. As one of the essential elements in a State, efficient energy policies become an indispensable part, making the rulers feel the duty to provide them to the population and their companies to guarantee the smooth functioning of society. In this, foreign policy emerges as a means by which States make articulations to obtain the necessary supply of energy. In view of this, this dissertation presents an analysis of energy issues within the Brazilian Foreign Policy for Africa, in the light of the agreements signed between Brazil and African countries (1990-2022). For that, an analysis of the content of documents of energy agreements raised on the Concórdia platform (MRE/BRASIL) was carried out, as well as the applications of descriptive techniques of Enetrix data, technological innovation via the web used for analysis of international cooperation in energy (Gesene /UFPB). The work resulted in relevant findings to understand the Brazilian Foreign Policy for Africa, referring to the chronology and typology of agreements, partnerships and priorities built, performance of different governments, as well as objectives and interests in energy security issues, such as (1) the guarantee of sovereignty over natural resources, (2) the role of renewable and non-renewable matrices and (3) the search for sustainable development, in the established adjustments aimed at Brazil's cooperation in energy matters on the African continent.

International migrations have been a recurrent phenomenon all over the world. It also happened throughout the history of Brazil, in different cycles and moments. International migrations to Brazil were encouraged and discouraged through regulations established by the government. In this context, this study has the general objective of analyzing changes in Brazilian migration policy, and specifically from 1988 to 2017. It is based on the hypothesis that Brazilian migration policy has an incremental pattern most of the time, with a moment of rupture and change. Thus, concepts related to migration and the conceptual and methodological contribution of public policies will be used. As a background to understand the present, the main normative aspects of Brazilian migration policy in the last two hundred years will be addressed, using governments as a chronological line; as well as the theory of incremental and punctuated equilibrium as instruments to understand periods of stability and changes in regulations; in order to understand the period from 1988 to 2017.

COMBLIN'S PRAXIS: PROGRESSIVE CATHOLIC THOUGHT IN THE NORTHEAST

Mostrar Resumen
-
The formation, radicalization and consolidation of the progressive Church in Brazil from the 1940s to the 1960s found in the Brazilian rural environment both an object of reflection and a target for action. The structural problems of the countryside, such as illiteracy, poverty, hunger, land and work were themes of strong theoretical and practical attacks by this sector of the Church. The Catholic Church has always been involved, directly or indirectly, in the structural conflicts of the nation, predominantly on the side of the rural elites and, to a lesser extent, on the side of the masses of workers. The positioning of this sector of the Church on the side of the oppressed of the land in Brazil and in the state of Paraíba, legitimizing their actions and helping the different social movements, also happened through a movement of awareness and training of clerics and lay people, aiming to help the struggle of the rural workers. Even from the 1980s onwards, when a conservative reaction in the Catholic Church organized an offensive against the work of progressive sectors, a strong involvement of clerics and lay people with rural workers in Paraíba can be noted. The present work departs from this relationship between the Progressive Church and rural workers in Paraíba from the 1980s onwards to understand the political thought and political praxis of Father José Comblin in the state of Paraíba, emphasizing his formative work with the laity through the expansion of the the Theology of the Hoe method for the experiences of the Rural Seminary and the Center for Missionary Training. In this perspective, they unfold from this general objective: 1- to identify their contributions in the formation and political action of rural workers in Paraíba and the Northeast and 2- from their praxis to collaborate in the identification of a lineage of Catholic progressive thought in Brazil . In order to reach the methodological proposal of thinking about political thought, we will use a documentary research, as well as semi-structured interviews carried out with contemporaries of Father Comblin. As probable results, we emphasize, a priori, that understanding the political thought of this notorious intellectual will help us to understand, under new lenses, progressive Catholic thought at the time in question.

he process of internationalization of criminal organizations, based on the study of the Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) expansion to Europe. It starts from the hypothesis that governance is a fundamental variable, although not sufficient, to make the process of internationalization of organized crime viable. In this sense, the research findings demonstrate that the imposition of rules and the standardization of ideas carried out by the PCC allowed the control of the members as the faction expanded in the Brazilian prison system to key countries for drug trafficking, such as Paraguay and Bolivia. Likewise, the creation of drug market governance mechanisms gave the group the necessary legitimacy to carry out business and win partners outside its home state, such as Bolivian cocaine producers and European mafias. Finally, the governance of civilians in Baixada Santista and, to a lesser extent, in the Solimões Route and on the border with Paraguay were also fundamental for the group to carry out the logistical role of the routes between South American drug producers and ports for export to Europe. This expansion process enabled the presence of PCC members and partners in European territory and consolidated its proto-mafia status once and for all, thus highlighting the importance of continuous analysis of governance mechanisms for a better understanding of the gang's next steps

DISCOURSE AND CONTRADICTION: The Narrative Dispute Between the TSE and olsonarism on Twitter

Mostrar Resumen
-
The technological revolution of the second half of the 20th century brought profound transformations to contemporary society, improving quality of life, expanding access to information and political participation. However, this technological progress has also brought challenges. Misinformation has become a serious problem on social media platforms. Examples such as the election of Trump in the US and Brexit in the UK have shown how disinformation can influence democratic processes. In Brazil, the Superior Electoral Court faces difficulties in dealing with misinformation, especially during election periods. As democratic institutions try to combat the spread of fake content, political polarization has intensified, with the strengthening of digital populism. In this context, this research explores the discursive dispute over the credibility of the Brazilian electoral system on Twitter. The hypothesis suggests a predominance of attacks on trust in the system, especially in relation to alleged electoral fraud. This occurs through the boosting of disinformation by Bolsonarism. In addition, TSE initiatives on social networks can become a battleground for engagement on both sides. This work examines the role of the Superior Electoral Court in facing disinformation and analyzes the main narratives in dispute during the 2022 elections. Using a mixed methodological approach, the research conducts a literature review on the platformization of politics and the emergence of the extreme right. It also examines the TSE's strategies against misinformation. Categorical content analysis is applied to tweets collected during the 2022 electoral cycle, seeking to identify the disputed narratives between supporters and critics of the electoral system.

Mostrar Resumen
-
The present investigation aims to enquire how the adoption of the BrahMos cruise
missile by the Indian Navy reflects India's maritime thinking doctrine and strategy. The
study seeks, therefore, to answer the following question: How does the adoption and
operationalisation of the BrahMos cruise missile reflect the Indian Navy's Sea Control
and Sea Denial strategy and doctrine? To develop the analysis, a Case Study was
conducted, in which the Process Tracing technique is applied. The case study
analysed the historical aspects that were identified as the most relevant to the changing
maritime strategic thinking of the Indian Navy. How domestic and international contexts
have shaped national interests, Indian national security policy, its joint and maritime
doctrine and strategy. Given all this educational (strategic) framework, the means
acquired, by purchase or development led to an adaptation to maritime strategic
thinking, to the adoption and operationalisation of the embarked BrahMos, reflecting a
strategy of Control and Sea Denial. Julian Corbett's Theory of Naval Warfare was
chosen as the basis of the study as it deals with the suitability of means to the strategy
adopted by a navy. Also, for doing a more robust literature review on what is Control
and Sea Denial, to understand the application of the concepts used in Indian maritime
strategic documents. The documentary and factual support to the research is done by
using specialised literature data extracted from the maritime strategic documents -
Indian Maritime Doctrine 2004 and 2009, and Indian Maritime Strategy 2007 and 2009,
also international reports like The Military Balance and SIPRI Yearbook have been
used. The research concluded that the adoption and operationalisation of the BrahMos
cruise missile by the Indian Navy represents adequacy of means to the maritime
strategy of Control and Sea Denial presented in its strategic documents.

Coalition Presidentialism and the use of Provisional Measures by the Executive Branch,
and the impact of Constitutional Amendment No. 32, of September 2001, continue to be
relevant themes in the Brazilian political debate. Literature addresses authors such as
Schumpeter (2017), Abranches (1988), Dahl (2015), Figueiredo and Limongi (2001,
2003, 2006), Teixeira Júnior, et al, (2017), Octavio Amorim Neto and Paulo Tafner
(2002), between others. The complex decision-making process on the part of the
Legislative and Executive Powers, in a scenario of high political fragmentation, gives rise
to a scenario of ideological and political conflicts, mainly regarding the performance of
the Executive vis-à-vis the Legislature, especially in relation to guarantees constitutional
provisions that were fulfilled after the Federal Constitution of 1988, where the Executive
uses means of legislative action that guarantee decision-making centralization.
Methodologically, a comparative analysis was carried out, whose strategy was based on
a survey of the literature on coalition presidentialism, addressing the confrontation of
authors' understanding with manifestations of repercussion in Political Science. In this
work, I sought to demonstrate coalition presidentialism from the perspective of political,
administrative and social decisions by political leaders and the use of Provisional
Measures in this process, which constitutes instability both in the political game and in
the performance of the Powers.

Oil is one of the main raw materials and the world's most important source of energy in today's globalized economy, and is essential to the industrialized and technological world. Oil stands out among other natural resources and is therefore at the core of many clashes between national states, as illustrated by the relationship between Guinea-Bissau and Senegal. These countries envisioned the expansion of oil activity, and formally signed an agreement in 1993, on which occasion they shared 15% of the profits obtained with the exploitation to Guinea-Bissau and 85% to Senegal. The contractual clause has stirred up controversy between these countries, which have renegotiated the rights over the area in several rounds of meetings. This study proposal focuses on understanding this political-economic context and the dynamics surrounding the negotiations between Guinea-Bissau and Senegal, which cover gas production, economic prospects, and the forecasts of entry into the hydrocarbon market. For the development of this research, we opted predominantly for the descriptive method of technical approach of ibliographical research, by consulting books and articles in physical and virtual media. The collection of information will be descriptive, giving preference to open interviews, with the primary purpose that this theme is relevant to question to what extent the oil, as a development protagonist, has interfered in the foreign policy of Guinea-Bissau and Senegal.

The present masters thesis deals with the foreign policy of an important actor in international relations and an international organization with a security bias, led by this actor, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The importance of analyzing the foreign policy of the Donald J. Trump administration takes place in the conjuncture of the development of this policy, as the former president put into perspective the leadership of the United States in some international organizations, among them NATO. In this regard, the research question is: what is NATO's place in US foreign policy? In this way, the masters thesis will analyze the US foreign policy actions regarding the Alliance during the Trump administration, with the aim of understanding the influence of the Americans and the reason for a possible redirection in the American agenda for this organization. The methodological path that will be used will be based on the model proposed by Hermann (1990), with the objective of evaluating the existence of any change in relation to the US foreign policy agenda for NATO, when compared to the pattern developed after the Cold War, situation in which there will be a degree of framing of the change, within the possibilities addressed by Hermann. For the purpose of analyzing the framework of change, statistical data provided by NATO were used, together with the theoretical framework constructed with regard to the analysis of Trump's foreign policy.

Poor countries hosts the major portion of refugees worldwide, still Europe has taken for itself the refugee crisis dicourse. In this regard, there is a notable pattern: poor countries shelter them while rich countries pay for their protection in the regions of origin (HYNDMAN, 2020). Thus, we must look critically into how the model of burden sharing has been allocated in the North-South context, chiefly after Global Compacts on Refugees implementation, which encourages funding into host countries in an attempt to share responsibility for refugees among all States. Ethiopia is one of pilot countries for this approach, as it is one of whom hosts a huge amount of displaced people and, therefore, key-piece to maintain them in the African continent. For this, will be substantial to look through the citizenship concept in a biopolitic perpective in order to analyze the refugee while a non-citizen. Based in this previous context, this reaserch is oriented by the following question: what are the implications of discussing the figure of the refugee through the concept of citizenship in the context of protection in the regions of origin? Therefore, this research is qualitative, case-oriented, the Ethiopia. The method of approach employed is hypothetical-deductive and the research is bibliographical, substantiated by secondary sources.

In the context of a potential Soviet invasion in the 1980s, China's Central Military Commission approved a new strategic directive known simply as "Active Defense." In 2015, the strategic notion of Active Defense, a pillar for the expansion of Navy operations, was updated for more distant waters. This paper aims to analyze how a case of military innovation from China's submarine force contributes to the operationalization of the Active Defense strategy. The introductory chapter presents the theoretical framework used, addressing the debate on military change, its strands and the chosen model. The next chapter focuses on China's strategic environment, presenting the geopolitical setting, the evolution of the post-1980 Active Defense guidelines, and Chinese surface capabilities. In the final chapter, we examine China's submarine capabilities, what they represent for Active Defense, and classify the object of study according to innovation theory.

Events such as the Ukraine War illustrate the relevance of hypersonic missiles as part of a country's fighting power. In this context, how do China's hypersonic missiles add to its deterrence capacity? This paper analyses what contributions these weapons add to China's conventional and nuclear deterrence. Our hypothesis is that hypersonic missiles contribute towards increasing the credibility of deterrence, assisting in the execution and operationalization of denial and punishment strategies. In order to achieve our objective, we extract vital characteristics and understandings from the deterrence debate and current literature on hypersonic missiles, which will be used to support our analysis of the topic in the Chinese context. Methodologically, we employ a qualitative approach and structure the research as a single case study, using the deterrence debate as the theoretical foundation for analyzing data collected from primary and secondary documents from China. At the end of the paper, we analyze China's context from three deterrent strategies: nuclear deterrence by punishment, conventional deterrence by denial, conventional deterrence by punishment.

The theme's relevance is given by the expansion of the Korean Wave, with the export of cultural products from South Korea. Along with this factor, there is an exponential increase in the consumption of these same products, which impacts the emergence of Korean studies on how the motivations for these results work. In addition, the need to explore other views on this vast industry and the importance of increasing these studies in Portuguese for the Brazilian academy. The methodological bases applied are a mix of bibliographical research, such as documentary research, articles, documents (historical and governmental), books and theses on the subjects discussed in each chapter. They were constituted to serve as a lens of knowledge about the developments in South Korean society of the practices raised. With this, the overall objective is to explore the relationship between the K-Pop Industry and South Korean Public Diplomacy to promote a national brand.

The present dissertation presents the theme of security and defense in the contemporary geopolitics of Venezuela, raising the following question: the presence of great world powers active in Venezuela, and their war potential, would threaten the Brazilian strategic environment? Answering this question is the hypothesis that the bellic capacity of foreign powers operating in Venezuela, specifically Russia, China and Iran, is a threat to the Brazilian strategic environment. Especially in the event that this influence is retaliatory to the United States, which can cause instability in the region. The general objective of this work is to question whether there is a threat of armed conflict for Brazil, due to the presence of foreign bellic powers in Venezuelan territory. The specific objectives proposed, aim to: verify the historical issues of Venezuela and understand the Bolivarism and socialism in the 20th century; study the potential opportunity for foreign military powers to access the South American continent; and, finally, it is necessary to verify if the presence of international military powers, and their position in Venezuela, reveal a real risk to the Brazilian strategic environment. The research is qualitative, considering the dynamic relationship between the real world and the researched subject, using documents, reports, interviews and other means available for this purpose. The importance of this body of work to the academic community lies in the possibility and the need to know and expand, with new research, the defense, and security agenda. And bring information that supports new perceptions on the subject, which will result in application of new security and defense policies in the Brazilian strategic environment. The research concludes that the presence of foreign military powers in Venezuela brings concern to the region and to the international community

The present work seeks to investigate whether the P5s discourses on the nexus between security and climate change influence the identification of institutional changes in the UNSC. We believe that P5s discourses are important to facilitate or restrict the discussion of proposals for institutional changes. In these terms, we follow the hypothesis that the discourses that propose the adaptation of existing activities influence institutional change in the UNSC in an evolutionary sense. Thus, we initially discuss how Discursive Institutionalism, from its specific focus on the role of ideas and discourses, offers a robust theoretical and conceptual framework to explain institutional change. Furthermore, we present an overview of ideas and discourses on climate security to support our discursive analysis of the P5's position in the discussion of the nexus between security and climate change in its agenda. The work ends with a final analysis of how institutional change is framed in discourses on climate security: whether it be around the institutional enlargement of the UNSC in a conscious but measured response by France, the United Kingdom and the United States; or in favor of maintaining a static and reactive stance by the UNSC in a climate non-response by China and Russia. Thus, we conclude that it would be possible to identify an incremental change in the cognitive/cultural dimension of the UNSC through symbolic bricolage, while it would not have been possible to carry out a substantive bricolage to change the other regulatory and normative dimensions of the UNSC, due to the Chinese and Russian ideational power over the idea of the nexus between security and climate change in the UNSC.
