The Pacific Alliance and Mercosur –Towards Convergence within Diversity

Abstract:
Not available

Resumen:
En resumen, tanto por las exigencias del entorno mundial como por las propias dinámicas del acontecer regional, se tiende a privilegiar la construcción de espacios amplios y unificados de cooperación. Un proceso de integración de características regionales parece, pues, más adecuado a los signos de los tiempos y a las exigencias del cambio estructural en pro de la igualdad en América Latina.
La gradual convergencia entre la Alianza del Pacífico y el MERCOSUR podría constituir un catalizador decisivo de ese proceso. Con el presente documento, la CEPAL busca contribuir a la elaboración de una posible agenda de trabajo que dé expresión concreta a esa convergencia.

Is Convergence within Diversity Possible?: Chile between the Pacific Alliance and Mercosur

Abstract:
The article analyses Chile’s initiative to encourage convergence between the Pacific Alliance and MERCOSUR, proposed by Michelle Bachelet’s government within the framework of the regional priority declared by Chile’s foreign policy. To this end, reviewing literature and the press, this work examines the trends occurred in the Latin American integration process and the options followed by Chile in this respect, while comparing both blocks. The paper concludes that, in addition to reflecting on the possibility of convergence, it is essential to consider this process as a necessity, in order to favor the interests of the region on international insertion.

Resumen:
El artículo analiza la iniciativa de Chile de impulsar la convergencia entre la Alianza del Pacífico y el MERCOSUR, planteada por el actual gobierno de Michelle Bachelet, que se enmarca en la prioridad regional declarada por la política exterior de dicho país. Para tal efecto, a partir de una revisión bibliográfica y de archivos de prensa sobre la materia, se examinan las tendencias que ha seguido el proceso de integración latinoamericano y las opciones que ha seguido el país andino al respecto, así como comparar ambos bloques. El trabajo concluye que, más que reflexionar respecto de la posibilidad de tal convergencia, cabe considerar este proceso como una necesidad, en virtud de favorecer los intereses de la región en materia de inserción internacional.
