Cuando se piensa en la historia de la integración regional como fenómeno de las relaciones internacionales, se suele pensar en mediados del siglo XX, y siempre tomando como referencia el proceso de integración regional de la Unión Europea (UE). Del mismo modo ocurre con el uso del término "acervo", que usualmente es asociado al vocablo "comunitario", y por tanto se describe como "acervo comunitario", al conjunto de normas jurídicas que recogen los principios y objetivos políticos que han desarrollado las instituciones comunitarias de la UE. Toda iniciativa o proyecto de integración regional anterior al siglo XX es considerado como "sueños de unificación" o "anhelos de unidad". Sin embargo, ambas aseveraciones son incorrectas, por un lado, la historia de la integración regional no nace en el siglo XX, nace en los ciernes de la creación de los Estados-Nación en Europa y de las repúblicas en América, entre los siglos XVII–XX. Por otro lado, la interpretación del término "acervo comunitario", es sólo una acepción del mismo y desde una perspectiva jurídica, sin considerar en su conjunto la histórica, la política, filosófica y cultural. Acervo proviene del latín acervus que significa el conjunto de bienes morales o culturales acumulados por la tradición. Por tanto, a nuestro entender, las ideas de unificación y los proyectos de unidad, anteriores al siglo XX, deberían de ser considerados parte del acervo de integración de ambas regiones. Este trabajo presenta la teoría que el período de los siglos XVII–XX forma parte de lo que se suele denominar como acervo, por consiguiente, a este período lo denominamos período del "acervo integracionista", un acervo que es común tanto para Europa como para América, el cual forma parte de otra historia común, aún mayor entre ambos continentes, que es la historia de Occidente.When one considers the history of regional integration as a phenomenon, which is a product of international relations, it is usual to think of the mid-20th century, utilizing the process of the regional integration of the European Union (EU) as a reference. The same thing happens with the use of the term "acquis", which is usually associated with the term "community"; thus it is common to describe the assemblage of legal norms that gather the political principles and objectives developed by community institutions of the EU as an "acquis communautaire". Any initiative or regional integration project before the twentieth century has been considered as mere "dreams of unification" or a "longing for unity". However, both observations are incorrect; on one hand, the history of regional integration was not born in the 20th century, but at the earliest stages of creation of the European Nation-States and the American Republics, between the 17th and 20th centuries. On the other hand, the interpretation of the phrase "acquis communautaire" merely draws upon the strict meaning of the term from a legal perspective, and does not take into account the totality of its historical, political, philosophical and cultural context. The word "acquis" comes from the Latin term acervus, meaning a set of moral or cultural assets collected by tradition. Therefore, in our understanding, the ideas and projects of unification before the 20th century should be considered a part of the integrationist acquis of both regions. This work presents the theory that the period between the 17th and 20th centuries forms a part of what is usually termed an acquis, a historical repository; consequently, we denote this period an "integrationist acquis", a repository that is common to Europe as well as to America, and forms a part of another common history, an even greater one, which is the history of the West.

"The book is the result of a collective research work between the members of the team of the project "Over the Atlantic" (co-founded by the Erasmus + programme). A critical introduction presents the work, the content and the scope of the research, carried out with an interdisciplinary approach. This book consists of three main parts. The first discuss the institutionalization and normalization of paradiplomacy in some specific and well-documented case studies regarding the Latin America region. The second one refers to the relationship between paradiplomacy and cooperation in the context of international and regional relations. The third part analyses Cities and Parliaments as international diplomatic actors. The theme of Paradiplomacy, as a means of unofficial relationships that reacts differently to the pressure of the international system, and the role of the local authorities, despite its relevance and importance, is scarcely analysed by academia"--
