In his paper the author outlines some features and questions relevant to the phenomenon of missile proliferation including the occurrence, development, and production of missiles. The paper points out that a missile build-up within a region could complicate the achievement of a shared perception of security and stability. Turning to the circumstances of Brazil, he explains that due to the positive atmosphere between countries in South America, missile programmes have no place in the region. As a consequence, Brazil has made the choice not to have weapons of mass destruction or long-range missile programmes and has instead dedicated scientific and technological efforts to improving the living conditions of its population.
