Abstract

The article analyses how regional agreements, which are abundant since the 90’s, contribute to the fragmentation o consolidation of the process of integration in the Comunidad Andina.  For the author, there exist objective, economic and strategic elements, upon which basic lines of convergence can be elaborated, which break with the positive elements of the formal integration agreements and which include new elements of alternative proposals.
