Regional Integration in Latin America - The Pacific Alliance a Way Ahead

Cooperation and Regional Integration Projects in America at the Beginning of the 21st Century

Abstract:
The American continent is organised around four major regional economic blocs: North American Free Trade Agreement, the Pacific Alliance, the Southern Common Market and the Andean Community. Their role is crucial today to channel regional cooperation and promote the development of a territory that has great socio-economic contrasts between Anglo and Francophone communities in the North and Latin American areas of the South. The integration of fragmented initiatives and profound local production disruptions in the South, aligned with suspicions and preponderant U.S. commercial interests hinder the prospects for a single economic unit on a continental scale. In this context, the article examines the potential that the most significant supranational organisations have and their geopolitical implications.

Resumen:
El continente americano se organiza básicamente en torno a cuatro grandes bloques económicos regionales: el Tratado de Libre comercio de América del Norte, La Alianza del Pacífico, el Mercado Común del Sur y la Comunidad Andina. Su papel es hoy fundamental para encauzar la cooperación regional e impulsar el desarrollo de un territorio que presenta grandes contrastes socioeconómicos entre las comunidades anglosajonas y francófonas del Norte y los espacios latinoamericanos del Sur, donde las iniciativas de integración fragmentadas y los profundos desajustes productivos locales, unido a los recelos y la preponderancia de los intereses comerciales de Estados Unidos, dificultan un proyecto único de unidad económica a escala continental. En ese contexto se analizan las potencialidades de las organizaciones supranacionales más significativas y sus implicaciones geopolíticas.

The Vision of Development within a Global and Regional Context: Regionalism in the Pacific Alliance and the Latin American Integration Association between 2005 and 2014

Abstract:
Historically there have been several discussions on how to achieve development from different scopes and spaces. The vision of development from a global space has undergone a significant evolution to the present day, in particular after World War II, in the context of international development cooperation.

Within the regional space, economic cooperation mechanisms have shown to be dynamic and favourable for development. This paper aims, firstly, to set forth a review of the evolution of the development vision from a global and regional perspective. Secondly, the study analyses trade contributions from a regional development perspective through a comparative analysis of the Pacific Alliance and the Latin American Integration Association between 2005 and 2014. These are economic cooperation mechanisms in Latin America and the Caribbean that seek development within the same region.

Resumen:
Históricamente han existido distintos debates para alcanzar el desarrollo, desde diferentes ámbitos y espacios. La visión del desarrollo desde el espacio global, ha tenido una importante evolución hasta nuestros días, principalmente después de la II Guerra Mundial, a través de la Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (CID).

Desde el espacio regional, los mecanismos de cooperación económica han reflejado ser dinámicos y positivos para el desarrollo. Por ello, el presente trabajo pretende en primera instancia, realizar una revisión de la evolución sobre la visión de desarrollo desde un contexto global y regional. En una segunda fase, busca analizar los aportes comerciales, desde una visión del desarrollo regional, por medio de un análisis comparativo de la Alianza del Pacífico (AP) con respecto a la región y a la Asociación Latinoamericana de Integración (ALADI) para el periodo 2005-2014, como mecanismos de cooperación económica en América Latina y el Caribe (ALyC) que buscan un desarrollo dentro de la misma región.
