Reviews

"“Policy rather than politics: this is the right way to make sense of Latin American regionalism. Focusing on international problem solving rather than institution-building, the authors highlight function over form and look into effective cooperation rather than rhetorical integration. This book is theoretically informed, yet no-nonsensical, and its empirically based chapters put analysis before prescription. It’s about time!” Andrés Malamud, Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon “…a renewed theoretical corpus and updated empirical analysis of regionalism applied to multiple public policy arenas in recent South America. It is an essential work…” Elsa Llenderrozas, Ciencia Política, Universidad de Buenos Aires ""… a very timely, thought-provoking contribution to the debate on bridging the gap between academia and policy making.” Oliver Della Costa Stuenkel, International Relations, Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), São Paulo “This invaluable volume expands consideration of regionalism in Latin America beyond the usual narrowly institutional focus, with profound consequences for how we conceptualize governance in this part of the global South.” Eric Hershberg, Department of Government and CLALS, American University “…the essential guide to South American regionalism in comparative perspective.” Kevin P. Gallagher, Director, Boston University Global Development Policy Center"
