Argentine-Brazilian integration in a historical perspective, MA Thesis with Honours 1991

This study attempts at analysing the interrelation between economics and politics in the integration process during the different historical periods, and the periods of economic integration, cooperation and dialogue, and their impacts on the process of regional integration. Secondly, it deals with the formulation and implementation of the Programme of Integration and Cooperation since 1985, and finally, the relationship between democracy and integration. The main objective is to identify the limits and obstacles in a process whose central aim is to create effective, stable and symmetrical interdependencies among the countries in the subregion.
