TRUJILLO ACOSTA, Iván Alejandro. THE ADVANTAGES OF PACIFIC ALLIANCE TO COLOMBIA. Prolegómenos [online]. 2014, vol.17, n.33, pp.159-172. ISSN 0121-182X.  https://doi.org/10.18359/dere.789.

The Pacific Alliance (PA) is an integration area of interest in the international relations. Nevertheless, there is a lack in the literature on the advantages that it offers to Colombia' s foreign policy. This article analyzes the advantages of PA for Colombia. It defends that the PA offers advantages to Colombia based on its characteristics and the opportunities that it offers for its Foreign Policy. On the one hand, The PA has within its institutions a defined agenda, follow-up on the high level meetings and an effective pro-tempore presidency. On the other hand, it offers to Colombia the opportunity to build an integration area without issues with other actors, instruments to diversify its foreign relations and a regional leadership option based on persuasion.

Palavras-chave : Integration; Pacific Alliance (PA); Colombia; New Multilateralism; Foreign Policy.
