Popis:Regional integration is a complex process that involves a set of political, economic, cultural and social phenomena in which State members must reach agreements to define coordinated policies. The movement of people and the regulation of migration flows are some of the aspects to be addressed. In recent years the different intergovernmental regional organizations of South America (MERCOSUR, CAN, UNASUR) have tried to move in this direction. Concepts such as freedom of movement and regional citizenship have led the proposals, although not always successfully. This process is accompanied by changes in local immigration policies. Argentina, as a pioneer in 2003, opened an area for discussion, followed by Uruguay and Peru who also amended their regulations. In turn, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, and Ecuador are discussing the need to reform their immigration legislation. This paper is aimed at (1) analyzing the link between regional integration process and immigration policies, specifically in MERCOSUR and UNASUR between 2002 and 2014 and (2) finding out how regionalization influences national immigration decisions.
