Abstract

The eighties have seen important changes in the international system. Among these, the transformations produced in the Warsaw Pact and the Rio Treaty stand out. In the 1990s, Eastern Europe and Latin America have the opportunity to rethink their possible security scenarios. In the present work, both regions are compared, establishing similarities and differences. From the perspective that the best security options are those that report the lowest cost for small states and contribute to the stability of the region, an exhaustive analysis is carried out of the three options that in his opinion are likely: balance of power, armed neutrality and collective security. It is concluded that only a collective security agreement constitutes the least burdensome system for weak countries.
