Abstract(s)
This article provides the first overview of the dialogues between Brazilian and Portuguese geography
throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. We expand current debates about marginal geographies in the
growing field of global histories of geography by arguing that the Luso-Brazilian case reveals how international
epistemic communities can be formed between semiperipheral geographic communities. Wecall attention to
the role that science funding plays in the making of epistemic communities in semiperipheral spaces where
political instability prevails, by allowing the creation of platforms of dialogue between geographic academies,
such as international conferences, scientific journals, and research projects.
