The Impact of New Regionalism on Trade Policy Making: The Case of MERCOSUR and the FTAA
Abstract
Since the ‘90s, Latin American Countries (LACs) have been signing
and negotiating many trade agreements, constituting what is called new
regionalism (BID/IADB, 2002). In contrast to the old type, new
regionalism has two main features: on the one hand, is a uni-dimensional
type of integration, in which the dominant goal is to coordinate the
liberalization of trade and finance to achieve a larger economic market.
