FUNAG publishes new issue of the CHDD Journals

The Alexandre de Gusmão Foundation (FUNAG) has published the 39th issue of the Cadernos do CHDD [CHDD Journals], a journal published by its Center for Historic and Diplomatic Documentation (CHDD).

This issue resumes the publication of the transcripts of documents regarding diplomacy in the La Plata river in the first half of the 19th century, focusing on the dispatches and letters from Minister of Foreign Affairs Paulino Soares de Souza, who later became the Viscount of Uruguay, to the legation in Montevideo. Apart from that, this issue also continues to publish the transcripts of documents referring to the International Conferences of American States.

The documents concerning the La Plata deal with the preparation for the conflict, considering the correspondence from Montevideo on the eve of the war against Oribe and Rosas, while those concerning the Conferences address the preparation for the promotion of regional peace, focusing on the meetings in Mexico, in 1902, and in Rio de Janeiro, in 1906.

The publication is available free of charge in FUNAG’s digital library .
