DIRITTO INTERNAZIONALE PRIVATO DELLA FA- MIGLIA: INFLUENZA DELLA STORIA E DELLA GEOGRAFIA DEL BRASILE

Abstract

The article aims to introduce the evolutionary course of Private International Law in regards to Family Law in Brazil, with special focus on the advent of Brazilian nationality in the postcolonial context, the migration policies and the applicable law at the time. For this purpose, Brazilian History and Geography were revisited in order to ponder the political decisions that contributed to the development of the conflict method in Brazil. These are the premises developed throughout the text to analyse the formation of Private International Law of the Brazilian Family, which stands out within the American continent due to its trajectory, as will be discussed throughout the article.
