The Pacific Alliance: Geopolitical and Economic Integration

Abstract:
Mexico, Chile, Peru and Colombia formed the Pacific Alliance as a trade block, which is expected to increase the flow of goods and services within their economies with the rest of the world, especially with Asia Pacific; likewise, geopolitically this new alliance hopes to become the most important partner in Latin America, in contrast to Mercosur or Brazil.
This article aims to present the genesis and objectives of the Pacific Alliance, among which are: raising income, boosting economies to overcome poverty, attracting foreign investment in higher volumes, improving regional technological development, and extending the internal market to overcome low levels of productivity, and achieve integration and market penetration of the most prosperous countries in Asia: China, India and Singapore.

Resumen:
México, Chile, Perú y Colombia constituyeron la Alianza Pacífico como un bloque comercial con el cual se espera acrecentar los flujos de bienes y servicios al interior de sus economías con el resto del mundo y en especial con Asia Pacífico, de igual manera, a nivel geopolítico la nueva alianza espera convertirse en el interlocutor más importante de América Latina, en contraposición al Mercosur o a Brasil. Este artículo pretende presentar el génesis y objetivos de la Alianza Pacífico entre los cuales se destacan: elevar el ingreso, dinamizar las economías para superar la pobreza, atraer inversión extranjera en mayores volúmenes, mejorar el desarrollo tecnológico regional y ampliar el mercado interior para superar los bajos índices de productividad, además de lograr integración y penetración al mercado de los países más prósperos del Asia: China, India y Singapur.

The Pacific Alliance: An Example of Lessons Learned

Abstract:
The Alliance grew out of the growing frustration of the region’s most open and dynamic economies with the failures of earlier hemispheric integration efforts. The Alliance is, in short, the pragmatic application of the lessons of those failures. In a region where trade and integration agreements seem based on any and every criteria except actually advancing trade and integration, the Pacific Alliance stands apart.
