Autonomy and development as constitutive ideas in the nuclear cooperation between Argentina and Brazil
Journal Title: Conjuntura Austral: journal of the Global South - Year 2020, Vol 11, Issue 54
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyze the role of the ideas of autonomy and development in the activities and positions of Argentina and Brazil in nuclear matters, to understand the impacts on the promotion of bilateral cooperation. The relationship between Argentina and Brazil has historically been marked by oscillations between rivalry and cooperation. In the nuclear field, there are no substantive differences and were initially characterized by competition and distrust, being progressively changed to a posture of approach and building mutual trust. Autonomy and development can be understood as notions present in the deliberations held by and in countries that allowed the identification of common values and challenges. Autonomy and development served as the first point of contact for cooperation on a sensitive and relevant issue in the second half of the twentieth century, from the beginning of nuclear technology efforts in the 1950s to the establishment of a new level for bilateral relations in the early 1990s from the 1990s.
