MOLANO-CRUZ, Giovanni. The Crafting of a World of Regions. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2017, n.61, pp.14-27. ISSN 0123-885X.  https://doi.org/10.7440/res61.2017.02.

Contrary to the conventional literature studying regional phenomena and according to the avatars of the European experience, I adopt a global and historic reading to explain the crafting of regional configurations as structuring elements of the contemporary world's space. The article first talk about how, from the middle of the 20th Century, the regional integration is manifested around the planet. Then I highlight the interdependent relationships of the regionalism boom within the 90's with the socio-historic process of the free trade barriers elimination. Finally, the article argues that in the 21st Century there is a consolidation of the inter regionalism in parallel to the seeding of the transregionalism.

Palavras-chave : Regionalism; ternational relations; interregionalism, transregionalism; global history.
