Definition
- The Southern Common Market—Mercosur in Spanish, Mercosul in Portuguese—is an international and intergovernmental organization with the objective to create first a free trade area, and subsequently, a customs union and a common market. It was instituted on March 26, 1991, by the signing of the Treaty of Asuncion that constituted a common market between Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, as a culmination of the process of a bilateral program of integration and cooperation already engaged by Brazil and Argentina since 1985.
