The Free Trade Area of ??the Americas: Where is it and where is it going?

From a perspective that looks for obstacles and results, the article traces the evolution of the FTAA from its origins until the present. Bouzas and Svarzman divide their analysis in four relevant moments: 1. From the first Miami Presidential Summit (1994) until the second Summit in Santiago (1998); 2. The Ministers Meetings in San José and Toronto; 3. From the Ministers Meeting in Toronto until the Ministers Meeting in Buenos Aires and the Third Presidential Summit in Quebec; 4. A final stage which began in Quebec and will conclude with the negotiations toward a free trade area in 2005.
