This article analyzes the phenomenon of regionalism and the transformations it has undergone throughout its history. It also investigates the variables that played a key role in building regionalism. It should be noted that after the Cold War regional groupings expanded worldwide, largely due to the end of ideological confrontation, the processes of democratization that took effect in many countries of the world, particularly in Africa, America, Asia and Europe, transnational problems that affect regions, as well as the challenges inherent to globalization. The central objective of this paper is to evaluate the variables that promote the building of regional groupings and to assess why some regionalisms are markedly successful while others fail. To this end, this article is based on game theory of Karl W. Deutsch, neo-institutional theory of Sven Steinmo and the new institutional theory of Guy Peters.

Palabras llave : regionalism; interregional cooperation; new international order; regional integration.
