Abstract
OLMOS GIUPPONI, María Belén. Free Trade and Labour and Environmental Standards in MERCOSUR. colomb.int. [online]. 2014, n.81, pp.67-97. ISSN 0121-5612.
The main argument put forward in the article is that MERCOSUR accommodated the protection of human rights as non-trade issues in its institutional framework, analysing the conflict between the protection of human rights and trade issues at the sub-regional level. In order to give a complete and clear picture of these developments, the paper examines member states' constitutional provisions and the implementation of MERCOSUR labour and environmental standards before national courts.
Keywords : Free trade agreements; human rights; sub-regional integration processes; labour rights; environmental protection; MERCOSUR.
