	ALADI
		The possibility of incorporating flexibility into the principle of multilateral action arose when new provisions were added to the GATT agreement, including one that recognizes nonreciprocity in trade relations among developing countries as a principle compatible with the world organization's rules.
		The convergence of macroeconomic policies combined with the process of opening of markets and the need to expand exports began to spur new integration agreements in the region starting in the second half of the 1980s, but this time designed on bases that were substantially different from the earlier ones.
		Integration was no longer viewed as an expansion of strongly protected markets against third countries, but was instead seen as part of the process of gradually opening up to international trade.

	Asociación Latinoamericana de Integración - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Asociación Latinoamericana de Integración (the Latin American Integration Association; known as ALADI or, occasionally, by the English acronym LAIA) is a Latin American trade integration association, based in Montevideo.
		In addition, ALADI is also open to all Latin American countries through agreements with other countries and integration areas of the continent, as well as to other developing countries or their respective integration areas outside Latin America.
		As the institutional and normative "umbrella" of regional integration that shelters these agreements as well as the subregional ones (Andean Community, MERCOSUR, G-3 Free Trade Agreement, etc.) it is the aim of the Association to support and favour every effort in order to create a common economic area.

		It was the era of the Latin American Free Trade Association (LAFTA), of 1960, which anticipated the formation of a free trade zone within a period of 12 years.
		LAIA did not set up rigid goals and broke new ground by contemplating - without fixing any date - the gradual establishment of a Latin American common market, which would be preceded by an area of customs preferences.
		LAIA continues to supply the framework for integration in Latin America and is the most important manifestation of the political desire to promote the integration ideal, both within the region and with other areas.

		The Latin American Integration Association (LAIA/ALADI) is composed of 12 Latin American countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela since 1980 and Cuba since 1999 (SICE, 2002).
