Abstract
ABSELL, Christopher David. The ALBA-TCP Looking with Keen Eyes. Prob. Des [online]. 2012, vol.43, n.169, pp.73-95. ISSN 0301-7036.
The emergence of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of our America-People's Trade Agreement (ALBA-TCP) represents an important regional and international political development, yet to date scholarly work on the subject has been scarce and characterised by a descriptive methodological approach which lacks comprehensive empirical research. Here I argue that such a methodological approach has imbued the literature with a positive bias in favour of the ALBA-TCP and its development projects. The aim of this article is to dissect this work in order to determine a research agenda for the future study of the ALBA-TCP.
Keywords : Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America-People's Trade Agreement (ALBA-TCP); Latin America; economic integration; research agenda; literature review.
