DUREZ, Aymeric. Geocultural Organizations in Globalization: Between Convergence and Divergence. Desafíos [online]. 2014, vol.26, n.2, pp.125-152. ISSN 0124-4035.  https://doi.org/10.12804/desafios26.02.2014.05.

In the international arena, all states act in collective entities that focus on the defense and promotion of common interests. Following the process of decolonization, new unions between states emerged in the context of sharing a common language. Particularly, Spanish-speaking, French-speaking and Portuguese-speaking people, taking consciousness of their mutual interests, created intergovernmental organizations. After a historical review of those organizations from a comparative perspective, this article analyses their role in the context of globalization and inquires about their co-existence with regional organizations.

Keywords : Organization of Ibero-American States; Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie; Community of Portuguese Language Countries; geocultural organizations; language.
