VITELLI, Marina. South America: From Cooperative Security to Dissuasive Cooperation. Foro int [online]. 2016, vol.56, n.3, pp.724-755. ISSN 0185-013X.

The article reflects the apparent paradox of the existence of the South American Defense Council (CDS) in a context of both violence and cooperation in South America. The principal argument is that the model of regional security under construction represents a transformation with regard to the one established at the end of the Cold War. By studying the nature of the activities carried out by the CDS, this body is interpreted as the outcome of the relative failure of the US multidimensional security project, which brings together in its place cooperative security with the deterrence model, both tendencies associated with post-liberal regionalism.

Palabras llave : defense; regional cooperation; South American Defense Council; cooperative security; autonomy.
