PASTRANA BUELVAS, Eduardo e CASTRO ALEGRIA, Rafael. The Long Road to State-Build ing in Latin America and its Impact on Regionalization Processes. Pap.polit. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.2, pp.523-546. ISSN 0122-4409. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.papo20-2.lrsl.
This article addresses, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the impact of the long and torturous state-building process in Latin America on the development of regionalization processes in the subcontinent. Firstly, it contrasts classical and contemporary ideas of sovereignty in order to establish, in a differentiated form and from a historical perspective, the manner in which the sovereignty principle has taken form in state-building and regionalization processes in both Latin America and Europe. Secondly, the thinking surrounding integration and sovereignty in the European continent is briefly summarized. Thirdly, the state-building process of Latin American nation-states and the impact it has had on their reluctance to transfer sovereignty to regional governance structures is interpreted. Fourthly, it outlines the role of ideas such as Pan-Americanism, Latin-Americanism, South-Americanism, and Bolivarianism in the development of regionalization processes in Latin America. Fifthly, the characteristics of the three waves of integration and the reluctance of Latin American states to transfer sovereignty to regional governance architectures are defined. Sixth, it establishes the differences in historic circumstances which have influenced different perspectives on the transfer of sovereignty in the construction of the Latin American and European regions. Finally, from the understanding of the problem of unfinished state-building in Latin America, this article evaluates the development of current regionalization processes.
