Rethinking nuclear verification through the Global South: Latin American approaches
In an era of heightened geopolitical rivalries among major nuclear powers, verification regimes for nuclear nonproliferation, arms control, and disarmament face increasing strain. This paper argues that integrating Global South perspectives is essential for creating more effective and inclusive verification mechanisms. Using a postcolonial lens, it highlights how Southern actors have contributed innovative practices that challenge systemic inequi…
When agency meets the Global South: Normativity, empirics and anticipated consequences for the study of international relations
This article examines how emerging middle powers from the Global South have exercised agency in moments of systemic disruption and what it reveals about the limits of established approaches in international relations (IR). Focusing on countries such as Brazil, India, Indonesia, South Africa and Turkey, it argues that recent crises (namely, the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and the conflict in Gaza) have created opportunities for these st…
The politics of emerging middle powers
War Memes and Brazilian National Politics
This article adopts the theoretical framework of memetic warfare and International Relations (IR), applying a qualitative, interpretive case study to a curated dataset of 192 memes circulated in pro-Bolsonaro WhatsApp groups in Brazil. These visual artefacts are examined as discursive tools that reframe global events - most notably the 2022 war in Ukraine - within national political cultures. The findings reveal how memes have been mobilised to c…

Brazilian failures to consolidate a domestic nuclear industry: The Role of Science and Technology Policies
Roundtable: Queer/Trans of Color Transits and the Imaginaries of Racial Capitalism
In this roundtable, scholars respond to the following guiding questions of the special issue: Racial capitalism in US scholarship is necessarily and rightfully narrated through the Transatlantic slave trade. While this is a globally relevant history for understanding the past and the present of transnational racial orders, what other histories and present modes of capitalist accumulation are relevant to telling a global history of racial capitali…
A Shortcut to Autonomy or a Path to Dependency? Foreign Assistance and Brazil’s Search for Nuclear Autonomy
How did foreign assistance influence Brazil’s path to attaining nuclear autonomy? To answer this question, a technopolitics hypothesis centred on the role played by national scientific and technological strategies will be discussed, focusing on two case studies: the history of the Thorium Group (1965-71) and the 1975 Brazil-West Germany nuclear agreement. In both instances, Brazilian policy-makers relied on imported technologies as shortcuts to i…
Tlatelolco Treaty: The Global South’s Postcolonial Contestation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Regime
This article demonstrates how Global South countries tried to manage global pressures and preserved nuclear scientific ambitions via post-colonial understandings. By resorting to the Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons in Latin America and the Caribbean (Treaty of Tlatelolco), this work states this treaty operated as a response to arguably colonial-minded nonproliferation structures and, in this sense, refined existing instruments throu…

The Advantages of Applying the Advocacy Coalition Framework to the Studies On Ethnic Interest Groups
Studies on ethnic interest groups are contributing to better understand the US foreign policy. By reviewing this literature, we noticed that establishing causal claims in this field has proved challenging due to methodological issues. Many authors draw conclusions focusing exclusively on ethnic groups without taking into account the full complexity of political processes. This work consists in the application of the advocacy coalition framework (…
Como selecionar casos a partir de diferentes alegações de causalidade
Introdução: Estudos de caso são fundamentais em metodologia qualitativa. No Brasil, estudos de caso são predominantes em estudos histórico-sociais na área de Relações Internacionais. No entanto, não há preocupação com a rigidez metodológica. Dificilmente são apresentados os critérios de seleção dos casos, as inferências pretendidas com o estudo e a validade interna e/ou externa a partir da utilização deste método. Materiais e Métodos: Este ensaio…

Mind the Gap: Assessing Differences between Brazilian and Mainstream IR Journals in Methodological Approaches
In this article, we assess the methodological approaches employed in articles published in Brazilian and global mainstream IR journals in order to observe the differences between the two. To this end, we compare the methodological tools applied in research articles published in the top two Brazilian journals (Revista Brasileira de Política Internacional and Contexto Internacional) vis-à-vis two other top international influential mainstream publi…
A atuação de grupos de interesse étnicos nos Estados Unidos
O presente artigo examina a literatura existente sobre a atuação de grupos de interesse étnicos dentro da formulação da política externa dos Estados Unidos. Esta pesquisa foi dividida em duas partes: a) problematização da questão do interesse nacional e a atuação de grupos com lealdades compartilhadas entre os Estados Unidos e outros países que ainda lhes apresentam laços familiares; e b) sistematização das principais características, apontadas p…
Wang, Jackie (2018), Carceral Capitalism
In a May 2018 interview with the Los Angeles Review of Books concerning her book, Carceral Capitalism, Jackie Wang was asked to summarize the link between the phenomenon of racialized mass incarceration and the seemingly omnipresent debt economy, which takes a central role in the book. Resolutely, the performer, poet and Harvard PhD candidate replied that she “wanted to think of debt as a form of unfreedom that is unequally distributed”. One can …
