Human Rights have consolidated a set of ethic-political values considered essential to safeguard the respect to the dignity of the human being. The question of development is fundamental to foreign policy considerations of countries like Brazil. The consecration of the Right to Development (RTD) as a human right challenges the artificial division of Human Rights and reveals the thematic evolution of this major of study. This paper uses the instrumental of human rights to evaluate the relevance and singularity of some of the Brazilian positions. After a certain dissonance observed in the seventies, reflex of the authoritary cycle experimented by the country at that time, a cooperative stance from Brazil in the propositions that dealt with the RTD was verified. In the same sense, it was observed that despite not being a recurrent concept in the official Brazilian speach, the country?s positions concerning the model of development defended and the human rights allow to infer there is an harmony in relation to the fundamental principles placed on the Declaration on the RTD, of 1986. From the analysis of the Brazilian positions, it was possible to individualize the foreign policy of the Lula government. By the stocktaking of the internal and external variables that exert influence on the government?s political formulation, as well as of public initiatives and official speaches, we have found some empirical evidence in the sense that Brazilian foreign policy for human rights during Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva?s administration assumes an attitude of promotion of development and of criticism to international order. It is a singular policy for embodying a dimension of values to such criticism. Hence, it is harmonic with the positions defended by the country in the international plenary assemblies where the matter of RTD has been object to discussion.
