Description
Summary:This paper aims to analyse, more subjectively than objectively, the development of ALALC-ALADI and to show the path for the MERCOSUR. The author evaluates the successes and failures of ALALC-ALADI -the first two attempts of regional economic concentration- focusing his attention on ALADI, being this more recent and with the aim of acting as an integrationist regional frame. About the MERCOSUR, the author remarks the potential involved in the bilateral trade between Brazil and Argentine, which can be the origin of the construction of Common Market of the South, with Paraguay's and Uruguay's participation.
