The focus of this paper is foreign language coursebook studies in Applied Linguistics in Brazil. The role such research plays in the field is considered. (CORACINI, 1999; FRACALANZA; SANTORO, 1989; MOITA LOPES, 1999; among others) and an overview of Brazilian studies developed between 1998-2008 is outlined, in an attempt to show the most recent focused themes. In order to do that some websites of Graduate Programs in Applied Linguistics, Language Studies and Foreign Language at Brazilian universities were accessed as well as some journals in the field, and also two specific events on language coursebooks were considered - I SILID and II SILID / I SIMAR at PUC-Rio. We conclude by suggesting new themes and trends for future studies and the need for dialogue between researchers and teachers (KRAMSCH, 1995; CORACINI, 1999). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work is on advanced degrees in International Relations in Brazil, which have grown four-fold from two in the 1980s to eight in 2008. The first part of the paper discusses this increase in the total of degrees and public policy incentives for the creation and consolidation of such programs. The second part discusses the evaluation of these programs by Capes and maps out the state of International Relations in Brazil given research incentives from Capes and CNPq. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
