Is Brazil a super power?

Marek Swierczynski, a journalist and defense analyst, in his Atlantic Community article calls Brazil the "potential superpower of the South" and argues that it "may be on its way out of the western camp and can speed up the creation of the world's new order". Elizabeth Reavey, a research associate from the Council on Hemispheric Affairs, claims in the title of her article that While the US Looks Eastward Brazil Is Emerging as a Nuclear Superpower. Describing the importance of the ongoing development of nuclear technology in the country, she calls Brazil an emerging superpower, with a "potential to have a China-like, booming economy, increased nuclear capabilities, a growing self-confidence in its own power and an ability to make its own way".Brazil is often called an economic superpower, either present or future, and many experts and journalists compare Brazil with the other potential superpowers of BRIC group. Jonathan Power from Transnational Foundation for Peace and Future Research claims in his article Brazil is becoming an economic and political superpower that "Brazil has a head start on India and China", saying that it has been positively developing for over 100 years and adding that "between 1960 and 1980 Brazil doubled its per capita income". Power also speculates that Brazil "has a good chance of emerging as the world's first economic superpower without nuclear weapons".

Why are nuclear weapons a good thing?

Nuclear weapons are a good thing for the United States because they prevent others from using nuclear weapons on the US. In general, the world would probably be a better place without nuclear weapons if it weren't for the fact that they lead to research in all fields of Nuclear Engineering, like Nuclear Power plants and Nuclear Physics. Since nuclear weapons already exist in the world, for the US to get rid of their nuclear weapons would be unwise. Countries that dislike nuclear weapons or even radical terrorist cells and organizations would now have no reason not to launch a nuclear warhead at the US since no retaliation would occur. The strategy of nuclear weapons preventing others from using them against the US is called the Deterrent Strategy.

Was it mean that nuclear bomb absolutely banned in the Philippines according to article 2 section 8?

This is intended to keep the country a nuclear DMZ where no nation can station their nuclear weapons on Philippine soil. However such laws are unenforceable in actual practice as any nuclear armed nation has the right to keep the location of those weapons classified and refuse to acknowledge or deny the presence of nuclear weapons on any base or installation within Philippine territory and the Filipinos would have no right to search to verify without causing an international incident.
