Resumo: In the debates on a free trade area in the Americas the importance of a continental social integration have been stressed by different social actors and researchers. To discuss this question the article describes at first two concepts of social integration beyond national borders. The convergent model is based on the understanding that transnational social integration represents an extension of the process offormation of nation-states and of the national public spheres. The second concept, denominated decentred, describes social integration as the increased density of communicational and symbolic exchanges between different social agents, beyond respective national borders, without the formation of a continental public sphere. The second part of the article evaluates the possibilities in the Americas for realizing these two forms of social integration and the possible risks and problems related to each of them, utilizing as case study the anti-racist cooperation between Brazilian and U.S. intellectuals, social movements and social organizations.

Para discutir tal questão, o artigo descreve inicialmente dois modelos de integração social para além das fronteiras nacionais. O modelo convergente é baseado na compreensão de que a integração social transnacional representa uma extensão do processo de formação dos Estados-nação e das esferas públicas nacionais. A segunda concepção, denominada descentrada, descreve a integração como um adensamento crescente dos intercâmbios comunicacionais e simbólicos entre diferentes atores, para além das fronteiras nacionais, sem que se verifique a formação de uma esfera pública continental. A segunda parte do artigo avalia as possibilidades de realização nas Américas dessas duas formas de integração e os possíveis riscos e problemas envolvidos em cada uma delas, utilizando, como estudo de caso, a cooperação anti-racista entre movimentos sociais, intelectuais e organizações sociais brasileiras e estadunidenses.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)2003-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/495710.5007/%xPolítica & Sociedade; Vol. 2 No. 2 (2003); 151 - 174Política & Sociedade; Vol. 2 Núm. 2 (2003); 151 - 174Política & Sociedade; v. 2 n. 2 (2003); 151 - 1742175-79841677-4140reponame:Política & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/4957/4316Copyright (c) 2003 Política & Sociedadeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCosta, Sérgio2022-11-21T14:13:36Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/4957Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politicaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/oai||ernesto.seidl@ufsc.br|| ps@cfh.ufsc.br2175-79841677-4140opendoar:2022-11-21T14:13:36Política & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
