Description
Summary:This article analyses the main features of the Latin American economic crisis as well as their effects on the integration process that is currently taking place among the Andean countries. The author sustains that the Andean region is going through a politically and economically fragile situation, one which could easily continue due to problems stemming from the American, European and Japanese economies. This fragility is considered as another sign of how the current economic model of growth is falling apart. The article also analyses the role that the multilateral and regional mechanisms could play on the Andean economies.
