The South Atlantic has gone from being dominated by the Western powers – until well into the 20th Century – to becoming a zone that is relatively marginal in the international system. If the Southern Atlantic can be considered today a promising area, it is because of the relative dynamism in the exchanges that have occurred in several fields over the past few years, and the greater autonomy which the current multipolar context allows. Within this framework, South-South cooperation can be highlighted as a factor in the intensification of inter-regional ties. This study analyses the relevance of the South Atlantic concept, reviews relations between Africa and South America, and explores bi-regional cooperation in a context of global transformations.
Key words: South Atlantic, South America and the Caribbean, Africa, bi-regional Relations, South-South cooperation
