Accomplishments Toward a United States of Latin America.

Abstract

The accomplishments toward, and likelihood of, an economic and to a lesser degree, political integration of the nations of Latin America are considered. A brief overview of Latin American socio-political history is offered to provide a basic appreciation of the origins of its existence which can be translated and identified in the contemporary period as strong forces, from within, opposing unification. Special attention is given to the Central American Common Market (CACM) and the Latin American Free Trade Association (LAFTA), among other efforts towards economic integration in the post WW II period.
