%T From Bonn with love: West German interests in the 1975 nuclear agreement with Brazil %A Bandarra, Leonardo %J Cold War History %N 3 %P 337-355 %V 21 %D 2021 %K Technische Auslandshilfe; Nuklearpolitik %@ 1743-7962 %~ GIGA %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-76710-6 %X The 1975 nuclear cooperation agreement between Brazil and West Germany had a considerable impact on the mid-Cold War nuclear non-proliferation regime. This article analyses Bonn's interests in that agreement, as well as the negotiation process leading to it and third-party pressures on both countries. It also covers the follow-up negotiations with Urenco partners for a safeguards agreement. Based on extensive archival research and secondary literature, the author delineates three main West German interests in concluding the 'Brazilian Atomic-Deal': (1) strengthening the ruling socio-liberal coalition; (2) boosting the West German nuclear industry; and (3) making viable the jet-nozzle technology. %C GBR %G en %9 Zeitschriftenartikel %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
