Abstract

Resumen El proceso de integración de las naciones del cono sur, Mercosur, es un proyecto que desde sus inicios evidenció un interés por consolidarse como un bloque regional importante, incluso, aspirando a lograr la connotación de Mercado Común. Sin embargo, su meta más evidente es la de conformar una Unión Aduanera, objetivo no alcanzado. Este artículo, derivado de una investigación sobre Regionalismo Abierto y Sistema Multilateral de Comercio, propone una aproximación al nivel de integración registrado en el Mercosur, al tiempo que explora los motivos por los cuales se considera — según la literatura especializada como— una Unión Aduanera imperfecta, categoría que no tiene sentido en la teoría de la integración. ****** Abstract The economic integration process of the Southern Cone nations, Mercosur, is a project that showed interest in consolidating itself as an important regional block, even aspiring to achieve the Common Market connotation. But its most obvious target, that of forming a customs union, has not been achieved. This article, derived from a research on Open Regionalism and the Multilateral Trading System, proposes an approach to the integration level in Mercosur and it explores the reasons why this is considered an imperfect customs union, a category that has no meaning in the integration theory.
