Non-Proliferation and Nuclear Disarmament
Between centrifugal and centripetal nuclear forces: the role of Latin-America
The second phase of this project, in an international context where the last five years have been the scene of a high level of uncertainty in the process of nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation and with the imminence of the NPT-2010, seeks to study the forces that have prevailed in the debate. The main areas of research are related to the nuclear actors involved, the regional tendencies and the “proliferating states”. This project is feasible thanks to the support of the Government of Norway.
