Descripción
Sumario:This paper, through the bibliographic method, aims to analyse the role of Brazil in the inter-american system of human rights by making explicit its position at different moments that contributed sometimes to the strengthening, sometimes to the weakening of the protection system. To do so, we will study the performance of the Brazilian State, in the period before redemocratization (1948-1985); and the position of Brazil in the período after redemocratization (1985 to March 2011); the position of Brazil since April, 2011; and the influence of the criminal action 470 in the diplomatic position of the country.
