In spite of the uncertainties that surround future predictions in a rapidly changing world, the author attempts to draw a sketch of the events the next 25 years may reserve both for Brazil and the world in the era of globalization. Several trends that are liable to influence the course of foreign affairs worldwide are reviewed, such as homogenization, unipolarism and intensification of regional integration. The author then analyzes the insertion of Brazil into the international scene - which has been greatly enhanced in recent years thanks to the success of the "Plano Real" - and emphasizes the need for development not only in the economic but also in the social sphere.
