The aim of this article is to discuss the historical relations of the European Union (EU) and Brazil and to draw possible scenarios of the future cooperation between both partners. Since the very beginning of the formation of the European Communities (EC), Brazil has been perceived as an important trade partner for the EC. During recent decades, the importance of Brazil as an economic and political leader of Latin America has emerged, and the EU recognized such position through establishment of more formal ties with Brazil. The Strategic Partnership Agreement (SPA) signed in 2007 was the reflection of the increasing importance of Brazil in the international area, and aimed to commence a closer formalized cooperation between both partners. However, due to some internal and external factors, discussed throughout this article, ten years after signing of the SPA, its outcome is much more often criticised, than praised. The article analyses the reasons for inefficiency of this SPA, and demonstrates some possible scenarios of further economic and political relations between the EU and Brazil. The role of Mercosur, and its long lasting talks with the EU with regard to the inter-regional agreement, has been also reflected in the discussion, and indicated as a signifi cant consideration in the future relations between Brazil and the EU.

The 5th International Conference on the Illicit Traffic in Cultural Property Stolen in Central and Eastern Europe took place from 18-20 September in Wieliczka with 125 participants from 21 member countries, as well as representatives of the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, the International Council of Museums (ICOM) and the World Customs Organization. The Polish co organisers of the conference included the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Administration, the Police Chief Headquarters, and the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. The Polish side was represented by the National Heritage Board of Poland and the Centre for the Protection of Public Collections. The possibilities of the Board’s cooperation with the police were presented by the Board’s employees Paulina Florjanowicz and Marcin Sabaciński. Among the recommendations passed, the conference participants were urged to establish closer domestic and international cooperation aimed at the protection of national cultural property. They agreed to implement the Basic Actions drawn up by Interpol, UNESCO and the International Council of Museums to determine the illicit sale of cultural objects over the Internet, and to communicate to Interpol information about cultural property thefts, stolen or recovered objects, and details on the individuals and networks involved in illicit trafficking. Member countries were also recommended to extend access to Interpol’s database of stolen works of art to all law enforcement agencies investigating cultural property crimes.
