The Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR): Models and Qualitative Mutations for Consolidating an Integrated Economic Area

Contemporary analysts tend to characterize economic integration and the consolidation of economic blocs as either as a solution or a threat, depending on their geographical position and intellectual perspective. Whether a commentator is located within or outside of a particular bloc, there is a common tendency to identify the negative or positive consequences of integration in that geographic region, both for the countries immediately involved, as well as for world trade as a whole. My overarching perspective is that the MERCOSUR integration process does not suffer from conceptual vices. However, it contains gaps and faces obstacles that stem from implementation flaws. The MERCOSUR integration process is and remains valid. It does not suffer from a priori conceptual vices, but suffers instead from the gaps and obstacles that result from flawed implementation. The result is not only ineffective, but also counterproductive, insofar as it substitutes this project for others, even less clearly configured. Taking a long-term view, integration is closely related to the adoption of models that are stable and viable in the long run, but also ensure that national interests are adequately promoted and protected

Os Ameríndios e o Direito Internacional:: uma perspectiva brasileira

The paper strives to bring a historic perspective about the International Law treatment on Amerindians, from the «discovery», going through the renowned authors of the American colonial period, such as Francisco de Vitoria and Bartolomé de las Casas, to the present condition of the Amerindians in Brazil, within the Constitution (1988) and with the multilateral international efforts to regulate the subject, via the UN´s General Assembly or via the European Parliament.O artigo busca trazer uma perspectiva histórica do tratamento do ameríndio pelo direito internacional, desde o «descobrimento», passando pelos principais autores do período colonial americano, como Francisco de Vitoria e Bartolomé de las Casas, chegando à condição do indígena no Brasil, com a atual Constituição (1988) e com os esforços multilaterais internacionais em regular a matéria, seja via Assembleia Geral da ONU, seja via Parlamento Europeu

Vicente Marotta Rangel – life and work. International law in the “Arcadas”

O exame da evolução do ensino do Direito Internacional nas Arcadas tem marco relevante com a contribuição de Vicente Marotta Rangel, que se estende por décadas, e abrange o crucial período em que, por influência do regime militar, o ensino da disciplina se tornou optativo em muitos cursos de Direito, em todo o país, mas graças a ele, nunca se interrompeu em nossa Faculdade. O artigo examina a longa e profícua trajetória e as principais obras do mestre, que completou 90 anos em março de 2014, e foi homenageado em dezembro do mesmo ano, com Seminário Internacional sobre Direito do Mar.The review of the evolution of teaching of international law at the “Arcadas”, as the Law School of the University of São Paulo is well-known, has a relevant boundary due to the contribution of Vicente Marotta Rangel for decades, which comprehends a crucial period which, due to the influence of the armed forces rule, the teaching of international law became an optional subject in many law courses in the entire country. However, thanks to him, it was never interrupted in this Law School. The paper examines his long, fruitful life and the main publications of this master, who reached 90 years-old in March 2014, and received in December of the same year an International Colloquium on the Law of the Sea as a tribute
