Abstract

Regional security and defense are slowly gaining more government and military attention. The security of common interests and risk prevention emerged as the basis of the proposal made by the Corporation for Strategic Studies (CEES) to create a security and defense mechanism at the MERCOSUR level. The testimonies of senior military leaders in the II International Conference on these issues highlighted concordant approaches in the political-strategic visions and a favorable climate of cooperation to consider this component in MERCOSUR. However, various obstacles still need to be removed to achieve a more advanced phase of military cooperation in this area.
