JULIO GIRALDO, María Carmela. The strategies of support to the integration in E.U. and their potential application to the Andean Community scenario. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2009, vol.17, n.2, pp.394-411. ISSN 0121-3261.

This article aims to question the strategy for regional integration in Latin America, in the context of the European Union Support development of cooperation actions directed specifically at the Andean Community of Nations. The methods of cooperation that have resultedfrom this strategy are the sample of EU efforts to contribute to the strengthening of the Andean integration process. However, the deep political crisis of CAN and its limitations as a regional actor in the international community, make it necessary to rethink the strategy of pro-integrationist support, by directing it towards new dimensions of integration beyond the economic ones.

Keywords : International development cooperation; methods of cooperation; European Union; Andean Community; Association Agreements; regional integration; Andean integration.
