Fieles al credo neoliberal, acordaron exponer sus aparatos productivos a una intensa competencia mutua, divergente de los proyectos para ampliar el mercado regional bajo parámetros proteccionistas, al modo de Mercosur. Compenetrado el cuarteto en una &#8220;integración profunda&#8221;, tuvo allí la base para acometer el ingreso a los mercados asiáticos, en asocio con la nueva generación de acuerdos comerciales, de los cuales el Tratado Transpacífico fue emblemático. Aquí, desde una perspectiva geopolítica se valoran las opciones de política conjunta para Asia, bajo la hipótesis de autolimitación china de su presencia en América Latina, lo cual abre oportunidades de intercambio económico, social y cultural más intenso con ese país.]]></p></abstract>

In 2013, faithful to the neoliberal creed, they agreed to expose their productive apparatus to intense and mutual competition, in a divergent way of projects in order to expand the regional market under protectionist parameters, like Mercosur. The &#8220;deep integration&#8221; of these contries would allow them to establish a base for entering Asian markets, in partnership with the new generation of trade agreements, of which the trans-Pacific Treaty was emblematic. We examine options of joint policy for Asia from a geopolitical perspective under the hypothesis of Chinese self-limitation of its presence in Latin America options, which, at the same time, opens up opportunities for more intense economic, social and cultural exchanges with that country.]]></p></abstract>
