The issue of the relationship between foreign policy and domestic policy has influenced the criteria of action applied to the practice of the States. The developments that have occurred on the world stage during the last two decades have generated modifications that affect the behavior of the States, a central axis for the purposes of this analysis. Of the new international realities, we are interested in mentioning two related to the peripheral actors of the global system: first, the State appears as "overloaded" with functions of maintaining and consolidating internal peace, security, development and well-being; and second, the State has been losing autonomy in controlling the network of factors and agents that can influence the achievement of objectives linked to these functions. These two starting points can help us to reflect on the interrelationships between foreign policy, internal peace and national interest.
