Resumo
Este artigo procura perceber como é que a relação entre a China e a Rússia, os dois membros mais influentes na criação e na ação da Organização para a Cooperação de Xangai, influenciou a cultura da organização. Através de um desenho de pesquisa construtivista, são identificados os principais elementos intersubjetivamente partilhados na relação referida, argumentandose posteriormente que eles foram incorporados na cultura da Organização para a Cooperação de Xangai, em especial nos dois aspetos considerados para a avaliar – regras formais e normas.
