Since 1990, particularly during the two administrations of Fernando Henrique Cardoso, the Brazilian's international relations were characterized by the absence of an insertion strategy in a world of global interdependence, when the opening was chosen as the ideology of change. Brazil, together with the multilateral organizations, worked on establishing a world order on trade, environment, finances and security sectors. It attributed importance to the process of integration of the South Cone. The international relations presented mediocre results on international trade, induced to strong financial dependence and affected the national nucleus of the economy.
