RODRIGUEZ AQUINO, J. Luis. Limiting weapons: crafting international nuclear nonproliferation standards from Latin America. Foro int [online]. 2020, vol.60, n.1, pp.97-137. Epub 15-Abr-2020. ISSN 0185-013X. https://doi.org/10.24201/fi.v60i1.2543.
After the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Cuban Missile Crisis, the countries in Latin America created a communal framework for nuclear security and a nuclear-free zone through the Tlatelolco Treaty. Mexico, a middle power, emerged as the leader of the negotiations and Mexican diplomats later used Tlatelolco to actively participate in the formulation of international nuclear norms and institutions. How did a middle power, with limited capacities in the hierarchies of authority, influence global nuclear governance? Mexico strategically used the Latin American coalition and the nuclear standard as a way of amplifying its influence in the international negotiations.
