Abstract

University cooperation between France and Brazil was set up in the 1970s. Here we follow that which was established more particularly in the field of rural sociology and the environment, through an initial agreement between a CNRS laboratory at Paris Nanterre University and a Paraiba university in Brazil. At the rate of successive agreements until today, the cooperation network has expanded both in France, involving institutions related to agronomy and the social sciences, and in Brazil, where universities in the South joined the cooperation, thus considering several agreements. When recovering the record of a collaboration marked by its continuity, we show how it evolved towards greater parity between the partners and how it incorporated the currents of ideas that irrigate the academic environment and social movements.
