A política externa portuguesa é frequentemente apontada como um exemplo de estabilidade e constância, em que parecem existir poucos elementos de natureza interna que alterem significativamente ou afetem essa orientação externa. Essa aparência de continuidade e, até, imutabilidade coarta a relevância do seu estudo, parecendo indicar que as decisões e mudanças decorrem exclusivamente de um processo objetivo de formulação e decisão dessa mesma política, e limitando (ou ignorando) ainda o papel dos atores e decisores políticos, de grupos com posições dissonantes quanto à política externa a seguir, etc.. Numa perspetiva reforçada pela teoria realista das Relações Internacionais, salienta-se uma orientação previsível, ‘credível’, despolitizada, de consenso nacional.
Assim, nesta dissertação procedemos a uma reavaliação da política externa portuguesa no passado e no presente, procurando aferir quais os elementos que levaram à manutenção da continuidade ou ao surgimento de ruturas nessa orientação, nomeadamente, se decorrem de fatores internos ou internacionais. Igualmente, recorrendo aos instrumentos teóricos e metodológicos da área de Análise de Política Externa, e ainda às teorias das Relações Internacionais de forma mais lata, tentámos compreender se as asserções realistas sobre a política externa de um estado podem ser corroboradas pelo posicionamento internacional de Portugal ao longo da história. Adicionalmente, tendo como estudo de caso a análise dos programas de governo desde 1999 até ao presente, procurámos identificar clivagens significativas em política externa entre os partidos que exerceram funções governativas. Os resultados apontam para processos de formulação e decisão mais complexos e sujeitas a diferentes opções do que previsto pelo realismo, e ainda a existência de clivagens significativas entre diferentes grupos societais. Existem alterações consideráveis ao longo do tempo dos interesses, motivações, objetivos e valores por detrás de determinada orientação externa, pelo que essa notável estabilidade é, afinal, marcada por grandes mudanças e clivagens nas alianças e prioridades.

Portuguese foreign policy is often cited as an example of stability and constancy, where few internal elements that significantly alter or affect this external guidance seem to exist. This appearance of continuity and even immutability restricts the relevance of its study, and seems to indicate that decisions and changes derive exclusively from an objective process of formulation and decision-making, and also limiting (or ignoring) the role of political actors and decision-makers, groups with dissenting positions on the policy to follow, etc.. In a perspective reinforced by the realist theory of international relations, foreign policy is seen as predictable, 'credible', depoliticized, and of national consensus.
Thus, in this dissertation we proceeded to a revaluation of the past and present-day Portuguese foreign policy, trying to assess which elements led to continuity or changes in that orientation, in particular, whether they result from domestic or international factors. Also, using theoretical and methodological tools of the Foreign Policy Analysis field of study, and also theories of International Relations more broadly, we tried to understand if realist statements about a state’s foreign policy can be corroborated by the foreign relations of Portugal throughout history. Additionally, having as case study the analysis of government programs from 1999 to the present, we sought to identify significant divisions on foreign policy between the parties who were in government during that time. The results suggest decision-making processes that are more complex and subject to different options than provided by realism, and also the existence of significant cleavages between different societal groups. There are noteworthy changes over time regarding the interests, motivations, goals and values behind certain foreign policy, so that such a remarkable stability is, after all, strongly affected by major changes and cleavages in alliances and priorities.
