This edited volume analyzes national security issues with maritime implications, and, specifically, naval projects and postures of main South Atlantic countries: Brazil, Argentina, Nigeria, and South Africa.

This book will interest scholars, researchers, and students in the fields of Latin American politics, regional studies, foreign and defense policy, and maritime security.

Reviews

“The book talks much more about South Atlantic navies than any other book ever published on the subject. … Navies and Maritime Policies in the South Atlantic is essential reading for those interested in Maritime Security as it provides a careful insight into the current issues and threats to Maritime Policies in the South Atlantic.” (Andrea L. F. Resende de Souza, E-International Relations, e-ir.info, June 24, 2020)
