ABSTRACT The article analyzes the Brazilian and Argentine experience in nuclear nonproliferation since the 1991 establishment of a regional binational safeguards agency, known as the Brazilian–Argentine Agency for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials (ABACC). After these two countries signed their Bilateral Agreement, considerable positive change occurred in their nuclear-related activities so that there is presently no concern in the international community or in Brazil and Argentina about the possibility of non-peaceful use of nuclear energy in the region. The Bilateral Agreement establishing ABACC was also a milestone for the Mercosul Agreement and for South American economic integration. This paper describes the evolution of nuclear energy development in the two countries, highlighting the significance of the agreements signed, the barriers established to prevent proliferation, and the challenges faced by ABACC.

巴西和阿根廷的无核化

摘要本文分析了自1991年成立区域双边国家保障机构（称为巴西-阿根廷核材料会计和控制机构（ABACC））以来，巴西和阿根廷在核不扩散方面的经验。在这两个国家签署了《双边协定》之后，与核有关的活动发生了相当大的积极变化，因此，国际社会或巴西和阿根廷目前对该地区非和平利用核能的可能性不感到关注。建立ABACC的双边协议也是《 Mercosul协议》和南美经济一体化的里程碑。本文介绍了两国核能发展的演变过程，重点介绍了已签署协议的重要性，
