description The central issue to be addressed in this article is the measurement of the causes and effects of integration agreements in Latin America. The role of integration of two trade agreements, LAIA and Mercosur, in value chains or production networks, in exports of goods, as well as the degree of depth and institutional quality of these trade agreements are studied. In this analysis, a distinction is made between the intensive margin and the extensive margin of trade. Finally, the factors contributing to creating or strengthening trade agreements in Latin America, by distinguishing between economic, geographic, political and institutional determinants, are analyzed.

El tema central a abordar en este artículo es la medición de las causas y efectos de los acuerdos de integración en Latino América. Se consideran los efectos de la integración en el ALADI y el Mercosur sobre las cadenas de valor o producción en red, sobre las exportaciones de bienes, el grado de profundización y la calidad institucional de estos acuerdos. En este análisis se distingue entre los efectos en el margen intensivo y en el margen extensivo de comercio. Finalmente, se analizan los factores que contribuyen a la creación o profundización de los acuerdos comerciales en Latino América, distinguiendo entre determinantes económicos, geográficos y político-institucionales.   Facultad de Ciencias Económicas.
