ABSTRACT: In this article we will outline the trajectory of Defense Studies in Brazil starting with a brief overview of the perceptions of the Brazilian academy of the Armed Forces - in particular social scientists in the 1960s and 1970s - then passing to the identification of the first studies that boosted the field configuration and some more structured initiatives that supported the growth over the decades for, then, following the structural changes in the international, regional and national political contexts in the 1990s and its connections with the academic environment of Political Science and International Relations in Brazil. We will also detail the structuring of research lines in Defense in Graduate Programs from the creation of funding announcements for research specifically focused on the field and, finally, we discuss the process of creating the Brazilian Defense Studies Association (ABED) and the challenges posed to the field of Defense Studies in the coming years.
RESUMO: Neste artigo iremos delinear a trajetória dos Estudos de Defesa no Brasil
começando com um breve panorama das percepções da intelectualidade brasileira
sobre as Forças Armadas – em especial dos cientistas sociais nas décadas de 1960 e 1970 –, passando então à identificação dos primeiros estudos que impulsionaram a configuração do campo e algumas iniciativas mais estruturadas que deram suporte ao seu crescimento ao longo das décadas para, em seguida, acompanharmos as mudanças estruturais nos contextos políticos internacional, regional e nacional na década de 1990 e suas conexões com o ambiente acadêmico da Ciência Política e das Relações Internacionais no Brasil. Também detalharemos a estruturação de linhas de pesquisa em Defesa nos Programas de Pós-Graduação a partir da criação de editais de fomento à pesquisa voltados especificamente para o campo e, por fim, abordaremos o processo de criação da Associação Brasileira de Estudos de Defesa
(ABED) e os desafios colocados para o campo de estudos nos próximos anos.

ABSTRACT: UNASUR and its Defence Council (SADC) were created under a promising
scenario of regional cooperation. Almost ten years later, a growing demand for regional cooperation arises, facing, however, low levels of political willingness from local governments. Through the lenses of structural and neoclassical realism, this paper suggests that the lack of support by governments, especially the Brazilian one, due to a change in how domestic ideas are developed, and a transformation in the regional balance of power, have contributed to these institutions’ quick obsolescence.
