Abstract

This article examines the influence of conservative ideas on Brazilian foreign policy during
the administration of Ernesto Araújo, first Foreign Minister of Jair Bolsonaro´s government
(2019-2021). This article presents two main hypotheses: (i) the foreign policy under Ernesto
Araújo is not based on the Brazilian conservative tradition; (ii) the conceptual models adopted
are based on a particular type of American conservatism, known as paleoconservatism. We
mapped the most relevant concepts of his international thought in texts published before
his appointment and then measured the occurrence of the main concepts in his speeches
as Chancellor.
