Abstract

The consequences of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis continue to show the limits of the omnipotence of capitalist financial globalization. To try to analyze the dynamics of capitalist accumulation in 2024, its conflicts, its social, environmental and political tensions, we need to go beyond the paradigms and recipes proposed decades ago by the dominant theories. This is no easy task in an era of fake news, concentrated media influenced by powerful neoliberal or ultraliberal economic and ideological interests, and ubiquitous social networks. The coherence of capitalist accumulation is now, in many cases, held together only by violence and inequality. This article discusses the integration of Latin America, and more specifically its Southern Cone (Mercosur), into the capitalist world economy. The first part presents a history of Latin American dependency,
focusing on a historical and critical theoretical approach. The second part focuses on the dynamics of Latin American and Southern Cone integration.
