This series of conferences is organized by a steering committee/ drawn from five international agencies:the International De- velopment Research Cent? of Canada, the Rockefeller Foundation,', the United States Ag)ncy for International Development, the World Bank, and the Ford Foundation. 'Further specialized con- ferences are planned on employment and income distributttn, on 'rural development, and on education. The general purpose of these meetings is. to improve our common understandingiobf the state of social science research on development problems and to identify new oppOrtunities for international agencies to contribute more effectively to such research. '-:To this end resource'personS-- scholars and government officials from developing Countries- - are invited to each meeting to join.indiscussions`with repre- sentatives' of international agencies: ,The papers in this volume were selected from the material prepared for the conference. They are of tOo general kinds: the first is a series of essays, not previouily published, on topics of direct relevance to 'subjects under discussion; the second is a series of informal memoranda by participants in the meeting: resource perSons from the developing world and repre- s sentatives of donoI age:ncies. As can be seen from the confer- ence agenda, additional background papers were made available to participants. These,, are not included in this volume because they have been lecently publiShed elsewhere. As can be expected in so complicated, an .area of concern,. conference participants expressed differences of opinion,on the 'ordering of research priorities, on optimum organization for doing research, and on ways of getting the results of research disseminated and used'by policy makers.Nonetheless there were broad areas of agreement on, topics for research, both on the de- terminants and the consequences'of population change, and on the need to strengthen capacity for such.researchdn-the developing world: J To piovide systematic follow-up to the conference, techni- cally qualified representatives of interested international agencies plan to meet from time to time to consider ways in which the agencies may, collaborate to make their efforts in this important field more effeCtive.

    175 CEPAL REVIEW 98 • AUGUST 2009 KEYWORDS Economic policy Economic systems Structural adjustment Value Latin American structuralism Markets Prices and economic theory Inflation Political aspects Economic aspects Economic dependence Armando Di Filippo Neoliberalism Economic development Latin America T his essay suggests that there is a body of Latin American structuralist economic theory which possesses distinctive characteristics while having a family resemblance to other institutionalist schools of thought, and which is based on an original approach to economic value. The founders of structuralism conceived a systemic, multidimensional and dynamic approach. They applied it to the study of improvements in, and the social distribution of, labour productivity generated in the central economies and the effects of these on the societies of the periphery. This outlook challenges the notion of markets as self-regulating systems that return to stable equilibrium positions, presenting them rather as a quantitative expression of the national or international power status of contracting parties. Different development styles and processes progressively alter the Armando Di Filippo Argentinean economist power structure of social systems and these changes are reflected in the Professor at the Institute of dynamic of relative market prices.

AMÉRICA LATINA: INTEGRACIÓN REGIONAL EN LA ERA GLOBAL Latin America: regional integration in the global era Armando Di Filippo, www.difi lippo.cl Universidad Alberto Hurtado, Chile Recibido: Octubre 2007. Aprobado: Diciembre 2007. RESUMEN El papel que la integración regional puede cumplir en el desarrollo de las sociedades la- tinoamericanas no se agota en las consideraciones de mercado, ni siquiera en los marcos institucionales de naturaleza económica. También incluye convergencias regionales en los planos cultural, social, ambiental y, sobre todo, político. Una estrategia integradora de tipo multidimensional es una forma de contrapesar y asimilar más adecuadamente el impacto del proceso de globalización. Los jugadores económicos transnacionales son lo sufi cientemente poderosos como para justifi car la construcción de contrapartes políticas sudamericanas menos fragmentadas, unidas en torno a sus intereses comunes y con sufi ciente poder de negociación. La convergencia de los países sudamericanos en el plano político, se funda en los principios, prácticas e instituciones de la democracia.
