A importância da atualização do Sistema de Resposta às Crises Internacionais na Marinha do Brasil aplicado às novas ameaças

Abstract

The International System of the present day is characterized by being heterogeneous due to the differences that have been established between its actors and phenomenons. The interaction between the existing forces in the System and their own evolution is defined by a permanent clash of interests that generates instability, insecurity and conflict. In this System, international crises often occur as a result of new threats arising after the end of the Cold War. From these trends that emerged after the dismantling of the Soviet Union and the end of the rigid blocs of Western and Eastern influence led by the US and the USSR, new threats emerged, such as the proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), regional conflicts and civil wars, terrorism, environmental issues and mass immigration, which demanded the application of the Armed Forces, in appropriate responses that go beyond questions about global power distribution and conventional wars, with clearly identified enemies. This scientific research on the importance of updating the Brazilian Navy International Crisis Response System applied to the new threats is the result of the analysis of the various approaches that emerged after the end of the Cold War in conducting these activities by the UN, NATO, USA and Brazil. The objective of this research is to investigate and describe the evolution of the concepts about International Crisis Response Operations in relation to the understanding and practices of these missions. The present thesis was developed through methodological tools that consisted of bibliographic research of publications published in Brazil and abroad, in libraries and those available on the internet. It is noteworthy that the precepts on Crisis Management missions presented in NATO Strategic Concept (2010) and the notions on US Crisis Response Operations arose between 1989 and 2010, from errors and successes and disability by the UN in managing the numerous problems that emerged after the end of the Cold War in the State System, recognized by the Organization's Brahimi Report (2000). By way of conclusion, this paper presents some considerations on the importance of updating the International Crisis Response System in the Brazilian Navy applied to new threats
