Japão, Proliferação Nuclear, Doutrina Yoshida, Estados Unidos da AméricaResumo
O presente artigo analisa as razões por que o Japão não adquiriu, ou desenvolveu, armas nucleares até à data, particularmente dado que já possui um dos maiores e mais avançados programas nucleares de natureza civil no mundo. Um dos argumentos a favor de possuir armamento nuclear é que o Japão teria argumentos adicionais em termos da sua segurança nacional. Significativamente, estaria menos dependente dos EUA para a sua segurança e defesa nacionais. No entanto, existem também argumentos contra, de natureza securitária, mas também ontológica e não menos importantes, que dificultam a proliferação nuclear e a realidade é que a opção do Japão desde o fim da Segunda Grande Guerra tem sido uma que é consistente com o que tem sido designado por “Doutrina Yoshida”.
