RAMIREZ-BULLON, JAVIER ERNESTO; PEREZ-JIMENEZ, ALEXANDRA y BADILLO-SARMIENTO, REYNELL. The International Security Alignment of Pacific Alliance's Members with the United States: A Constructivist Realist Approach. Desafíos [online]. 2021, vol.33, n.1, pp.145-184. Epub 12-Dic-2021.

Studies of regionalism have usually dismissed inquiries into the implications of the Pacific Alliance (PA) for the field of security. This article seeks to understand the role of security ideas in the degree of alignment of PA countries' foreign policies with the United States (USA). Our approach combines contributions from constructivism and realism. This research applies a qualitative methodology that relies on process tracing along with thematic analysis of presidential speeches and defense white papers. The findings suggest that PA members have a common pattern of behavior in the face of international security actions prompted by Washington in the UN Security Council We show that this foreign policy behavior is explained bypath dependent trajectories of security cooperation with the USA and shared notions of international threat.
