RESUMO

This study analyses the central argument of Operation Pan-America, initiative by Brazilian President Juscelino Kubitschek in May, 1958, in which he urged for economic aid from the United States to the countries of Latin America, and how it was used later in Brazilian diplomatic discourse. According to Kubitschek, cooperation on the part of the leader of the Free World to its fellow nations in the Western Hemisphere was needed, in order to assure that their political stability would not be affected by its economic underdevelopment and, as a result, risk that the power in these countries would fall in the hands of leaders with connections to the socialist bloc. Speeches by Brazilian Chiefs of State and Ministers of Foreign Affairs were studied, with special attention to those in which world views and objectives of Brazil in the international scenery were explicated. First, Kubitscheks foreign policy was studied, with a more detailed attention to Operation Pan-America an its argument. Then a period starting with Kubitscheks successor, Jânio Quadros short term in office, in 1961, and ending during Luís Inácio Lula da Silva presidency, was analyzed in search for the urge to the need of hemispheric solidarity to tackle the plight of underdevelopment as a condition to political stability in the whole American continent.
