Between 1965 and 1975, numerous studies on the subject of regional integration circulated in Latin America. As early as 1975, the process was deemed to have been "saturated," and the initial euphoria was not followed by a progressive fading of unease, but by a kind of unintentional conspiracy of silence. However, the need for regional integration has new and valuable arguments. The readjustment of integration and cooperation instruments offers a vast possibility of research and studies. Within this order of ideas, the studies carried out by the Development Research Corporation on the subject of "Society, Politics and Integration in Latin America" are exceptional. In this article, some statements contained in it are commented, focusing exclusively on the variable "integration" exposed by the authors.
