Mechanisms for an effective contribution of European integration to Latin American integration

The volume 27 composed of eight chapters and prepared by members of Gridale analyzes the contemporary challenges of Latin American and European integration in a context marked by the crisis of regionalism, geopolitical tensions, and the recon­figuration of the global order. This book examines how the institutional and regulatory experience of the European Union can contribute to strengthening integration in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) through economic, political, and strategic cooperation mechanisms. It highlights the need to promote a knowledge economy as the foundation of an inclusive and sustainable productive development model aimed at reducing gaps in human capital, fostering economic convergence, and deepening regional integration. It also analyses the crisis of the traditional EU-Mercosur Atlantic axis and the possible shift toward the Pacific considering ASEAN’S rise as a strategic partner for Latin America. In addition, this book examines political phenomena that affect the dynamics of European integration, such as the program of Fratelli d’Italia, the lessons derived from Brexit, and the change in the European Union’s priorities resulting from the new European geopolitical situation, particularly the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which underscores the need for permanent institutional adjustments. Bi-regional cooperation emerges as the central axis of the book. Within this framework, the study explores instruments such as the European Higher Education Area, the Global Gateway Agenda, the European Green Deal, and EU-CELAC cooperation as mechanisms to promote a just ecological transition. In the face of the reconfiguration of the transatlantic relationship and the advance of the European strategic autonomy agenda, the partnership with Latin America is presented as an opportunity to build a more competitive, sustainable, resilient, and inclusive integration process in both regions. In this direction, the book offers proposals aimed at structurally strengthening the bi-regional relationship.
