At the end of the semester, students should be able to:
1. Understand the historical evolution of Portuguese foreign policy.
2. Apply central concepts and theories about foreign policy.
3. Know the fundamental vectors of contemporary Portuguese foreign policy.
4. Critically evaluate the main Portuguese multilateral and bilateral relationships.
