Extract

As the title of the session indicates, we will be exploring the future of multilateralism in Latin America, which will inevitably entail looking at its record. Criticisms of multilateralism in the region abound, from recurrent debates about the effectiveness of the Organization of American States (OAS) and other regional institutions in promoting democratic governance and human rights, to the alleged failure of the Andean Community or Mercosur and similar organizations to promote true integration or economic development, or the difficulties in multilateral approaches to addressing crises such as those in Venezuela, Nicaragua, or Haiti.
