| Sumario: | The construction of regions and collective identities is an ancient phenomenon. Europe and Latin America, for example, are concepts built throughout history, as well as European and Latin American identities. This research aims to verify if there is an imagined community among the South Americans, founded on a group consciousness that transcends national boundaries. South America today is no longer just a geographic cut in the map. South American intergovernmental institutions, such as MERCOSUR, UNASUR and ACTO, among others, constitute a still incipient, although real, South American sphere of public governance that complements the traditional national and subnational spheres of government. Gradually, these regional institutions enable the planning of public policies from a joint view of South America, at the same time as an autonomous system and as a subsystem of Latin America and the American continent. The institutionalization of South America is empirically proven. However, there are doubts as to the identification of South Americans with the integration projects underway, as well as the feasibility of manufacturing a transnational identity among South Americans. Public opinion surveys contribute to the analysis, based on assumptions of sociology and social constructivism |
