RESUMEN La globalización es un fenómeno asimétrico y heterogéneo que ofrece oportunidades para algunas sociedades, pero que también tiene severos impactos negativos en otras. Este documento muestra los resultados de una evaluación empírica de los efectos que ha tenido para los países andinos, su inserción en la economía global en los últimos dos decenios. Para el efecto, se examinan cuatro ejes temáticos: crecimiento; comercio internacional; flujos financieros y la inversión extranjera directa; y equidad social. Se concluye con una relación (no exhaustiva) de las políticas de desarrollo que los países andinos deberían adoptar (o profundizar) para mejorar la calidad de su inserción internacional.
