Mercosur

Mercosur
= Southern Common Market
An association of South American nations formed in 1991 with the aim of establishing a common market between member states and harmonizing their economic and social policies. The current members are Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Venezuela; Bolivia has been invited to join in 2006-07 and Chile is an associate member. In 2004 Mercosur signed a cooperation agreement with the Andean Community (CAN), which comprises Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. The ultimate goal is now the complete integration of the two blocs to form a continent-wide association on the model of the European Union See also Latin American Integration Association
