The forbidden cooperation: South Africa–Brazil nuclear relations at the turn of the 1970s

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: Contributing to a global nuclear history, this article discusses Brazil’s refusal to accept sensitive nuclear assistance from South Africa in the late 1970s. Relying on primary sources and oral history interviews, this study argues that despite their similar positions in the global nuclear order, Brazil’s decision was connected to political and technological reasons.
