It considers some of the influential factors that shaped this inter-regional relationship, particularly Ecuador&#8217;s bargaining power vis à vis the EU, in order to shed light upon the clout the country was able to exert in such a negotiation. It also discusses some dimensions that highlight Ecuador&#8217;s small country status (smallness) and the variations within inter-regional dynamics. Some findings and remarks are provided to conclude.]]></p></abstract>

Considera algunos factores influyentes que moldearon esta relación interregional, particularmente el poder de negociación de Ecuador frente a la UE, el cual revela la influencia que el país ejerció en dicha negociación. Además, discute algunas de las dimensiones de la pequeñez de Ecuador y las variaciones del inter-regionalismo. Finalmente, y a manera de conclusión, el artículo ofrece algunos hallazgos y comentarios.]]></p></abstract>
