Apresentação Por instrução do Ministro das Relações Exteriores, Embaixador Antonio de Aguiar Patriota, a Fundação Alexandre de Gusmão (Funag) organizou o II Curso para Diplomatas Africanos, em setembro de 2011, para o qual foram convidados diplomatas dos seguintes países anglófonos: África do Sul, Botsuana, Gana, Namíbia, Nigéria, Quênia, Sudão, Sudão do Sul, Tanzânia, Zâmbia e Zimbábue. Angola foi também convidada a participar. O Curso foi inaugurado pelo então Presidente da Funag, Embai- xador Gilberto Vergne Saboia, que deu as boas-vindas aos participantes. Em seguida, o Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro de Andrade Pinto, Subsecretário-Geral de Política III, ministrou a palestra de abertura que versou sobre as semelhanças culturais entre os povos africano e brasileiro. O Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro enfatizou a importância da participação dos diplomatas do Sudão do Sul, cuja independência havia sido declarada em 9 de julho, dois meses antes do início do Curso. No decorrer do evento, os diplomatas convidados tiveram oportunidade de interagir com especialistas brasileiros e africanos em matérias pertinentes à agenda do relacionamento afro-brasileiro. Para complementar as apresentações, foram promovidas visitas a importantes instituições brasileiras, tais como Petrobras, Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES), Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa), Museu Histórico Nacional, Biblioteca Nacional, Senado Federal e Instituto Rio Branco. 5 Os textos redigidos pelos palestrantes encontram-se reunidos nesta coleção de artigos, importante fonte de reflexão e úteis subsídios para estudiosos e autoridades interessados nas questões africanas.

Vou falar em português, pelo menos na sessão de abertura, inclusive porque espero que isso estimule a familiarização dos nossos amigos com a língua portuguesa. Eu queria dar as boas-vindas a todos os participantes desse II Curso para Diplomatas Africanos. Aos que vêm participar do curso e aos que vêm dar palestra, esse curso é uma indicação palpável da importância e da prioridade das relações entre o Brasil e a África. Estamos muito satisfeitos que possam ter aceitado o nosso convite para vir a este segundo Curso. Eu estava comentando com o Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro – Subsecretário-Geral de Política III encarregado, entre outras coisas, dos assuntos da África – que o que promovemos aqui é um encontro com distintos diplomatas e uma troca de impressões e de experiências sobre os planos, a conjuntura, as dificuldades e as boas práticas que cada país está desenvolvendo para melhorar o padrão e as condições de vida da sua população. Eu queria fazer uma menção especial à presença do Doutor Lam Akol Ajawin, do Sudão do Sul, que fará uma palestra mais tarde, ainda durante a manhã. Aqui, na mesa, eu sou o Presidente da Fundação Alexandre de Gusmão; o Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro eu já apresentei; e o Embaixador Maurício Cortes é o Diretor do Centro de História e Documentação Diplomática, uma instituição da Fundação Alexandre de * Diplomata brasileiro, Ministro de Primeira Classe e Subsecretário-Geral Político III. 9 PAULO CORDEIRO DE ANDRADE PINTO Gusmão, localizada no Rio de Janeiro, que trata da documentação histórica, da facilitação do trabalho dos historiadores e das pesquisas históricas. Queria agradecer especialmente ao Embaixador Valter Pecly, à minha direita, que é o Chefe do Escritório Regional do Ministério das Relações Exteriores no Rio de Janeiro, pela sua hospitalidade neste Salão Nobre da Biblioteca do Itamaraty no Rio de Janeiro. Com isso, eu passo a palavra ao Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro, que dirá algumas palavras nesta sessão de abertura antes de passarmos a sua palestra, porque ele também será palestrante essa manhã. Muito obrigado. Senhor Embaixador Paulo Cordeiro – Bom dia, Senhor Embaixador Gilberto Saboia, Senhor Embaixador Valter Pecly, Senhor Embaixador Maurício Cortes Costa, Senhor Ministro Lam Akol Ajawin. É para mim uma honra estar presente na sessão de abertura deste II Curso para Diplomatas Africanos. A minha presença aqui é em representação do Senhor Ministro de Estado das Relações Exteriores, Embaixador Antonio Patriota, que lamenta profundamente não estar presente, porque ele dá um extremo valor às nossas relações com os países do continente africano. Neste momento, ele está entre Istambul e Ancara, na Turquia. O Itamaraty, que é uma instituição, na minha opinião, basilar do Estado brasileiro, sente-se também honrado em receber esses grupos de jovens diplomatas africanos na sua casa mãe: o Palácio do Rio de Janeiro, onde eu diria que quase tudo começou. O Itamaraty vê-se como uma instituição extremamente profissional; neste momento é que quebrou um pouco do seu profissionalismo, porque eu tenho aqui, fora do que seria o normal da nossa tão louvada maneira hierárquica de trabalhar, à minha direita, o Embaixador Valter Pecly, que na verdade devia estar no meu lugar, porque foi o meu Conselheiro há muitos anos, quando eu era Secretário em Genebra. Mas isso é uma maneira um pouco jocosa de falar dessa instituição, uma instituição quase bicentenária (porque ela nasceu antes da nossa Independência), uma instituição que sempre teve como norte a defesa dos interesses do Brasil. Ao fazer aqui, em volta dessa mesa, esse segundo Curso para Diplomatas Africanos, o interesse do Ministério das Relações Exteriores – transformado em realidade pelos esforços da Fundação Alexandre de Gusmão – é intercambiar experiências com povos muito antigos, mas que

My advisor, Charles Upchurch encouraged me to broaden my understanding of the British Empire, which led to my decision to study Charles Gordon.

  • Diplomacy, Finance and the Coming of War, 1890-1914
    Last revised 7 May 2005 Political Risk and the International Bond Market between the 1848 Revolution and the Outbreak of the First World War Niall Ferguson Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History Harvard University [email protected] Abstract This article uses price data and editorial commentaries from the contemporary financial press to measure the impact of political events on investors’ expectations from the middle of the nineteenth century until the First World War. The main question addressed is why political events appeared to affect the world’s biggest financial market, the London bond market, much less between 1881 and 1914 than they had between 1843 and 1880. In particular, I ask why the outbreak of the First World War, an event traditionally seen as having been heralded by a series of international crises, was not apparently anticipated by investors. The article considers how far the declining sensitivity of the bond market to political events was due to the spread of the gold standard, increased international financial integration or changes in the fiscal policies of the great powers. I suggest that the increasing national separation of bond markets offers a better explanation. However, even this structural change cannot explain why the London market was so slow to appreciate the risk of war in 1914. To investors the First World War truly came as a bolt from the blue. Forthcoming in the Economic History Review 1 Political risk and the international bond market between the 1848 Revolution and the outbreak of the First World War1 By NIALL FERGUSON Before 1914 it was widely believed that a major European war would have drastic consequences for financial markets.

Doctor of Philosophy (History), December, 1971, 235 pp., bibliography, 161 titles. Early and recent interpretations of imperialism and long-range expansionist policies of Britain and France during the period of so-called "new imperialism" after 1870 are examined as factors in the causes of the Fashoda Crisis of 1898-1899. British, French, and German diplomatic docu- ments, memoirs, eye-witness accounts, journals, letters, newspaper and journal articles, and secondary works form the basis of the study. Anglo-French rivalry for overseas territories is traced from the Age of Discovery to the British occupation of Egypt in 1882, the event which, more than any other, triggered the opening up of Africa by Europeans. The British intention to build a railroad and an empire from Cairo to Capetown and the French dream of drawing a line of authority from the mouth of the Congo River to Djibouti, on the Red Sea, for Tied a huge cross of European imperialism over the African continent, The point of intersection was the mud-hut village of Fashoda on the left bank of the White Nile south of Khartoum. The. Fashoda meeting, on September 19, 1898, of Captain Jean-Baptiste Marchand, representing France, and General Sir Herbert Kitchener, representing Britain and Egypt, touched off an international crisis, almost resulting in global war.

  • The Southern Provinces in Which He Laid the Crnerstone for Several New Mosques
    INSTITUTE OF CURRENT rORLD AFFAIRS "au, Sudan 28 January 1961 LCB 3 Sudan: The SouShern Provinces Mr. Richard N. Nolte Institute of Current ,Vorld Affairs 366 Madison Avenue New York 17, N.Y. Dear Mr. Noite, If my eerience is at all typical then the avera.e American is likely to pass through three stages his understanding of Africa. First there is the vague image of an entire continent of steaming Jungles, naked blacks living in grass huts, and wild animals the picture born 6f innumerable Tarzan movies and a few random missionary stories remembered from early days at Sunday School. Then with a bit of familiarity this monolithic conception of the Dark Continent breaks down. Much of Africa is desert or prairie, and there are several sections boasting a near ideal climate. Roughly one African in every five is, after all, white, not black. Several impressive modern cities exist Cairo, Salisbury, Casablanca, Nairobi. And the educated African nsionalist leader with his clothes (and often ideas) cut in England or France--Mboye, Tour, ouphouet-oigny, NkrumaB- is obviously not the child of a grass hut civilization. Unless one has th .opportunity to get off the major routes of communication in Africa (which are almost invariably by air), he may remain in ibis second stage of understanding Africa. Among Americans, only the missionaries, the occasional economic aid specialists who are osted in areas remote from the capitals, and a handfu_! of anthropologists are likely to move on to stage three--to the level where one, while realizing that pockets of modernity and civilization exist in what is properly called lack Africa, also rediscovers the primitive Africa of tose childhood movies.
