    ¿Qué nos enseñan los 20 años del Mercosur?
    in Nueva Sociedad , n. 232 ,  2011
    Twenty years since the launch of Mercosur, not only has the number of members grown, but we have also witnessed political and ideological changes in member states. If the fundamental pillar of integration was laid in a hegemonic neoliberal context, today other paths have been explored, in which the State has been given the inevitable role of development. As a result, at the 2006 summit in Córdoba the «Social and Productive Mercosur» stage was launched, which endeavours to revert the disenchantment in a process with excessive emphasis in commercial policies and with a great deal of weakness in areas like education, productive integration and environmental policies.
