The transpacificity, analisys concept and rapprochement: Mexico and South Korea
Abstract
The article aims to assist in the analysis based on the concept of transpacificity starting from the transpacific relations doctorate from the University of Colima, as a concept that encompasses the interests that are intertwined in the region of the Pacific Rim, which is coined to explain a region with specific characteristics and acquires increasingly geo-economic and geopolitical importance. It also emphasizes the necessity to not only know the dimensions mentioned, but also be a guiding principle to form groups of specialists which would be inserted into the same theoretical perspective that describes a dynamic region with many angles to study. On the other hand, it is necessary to build the transpacific as an intercommunicative network, which involves different actors: businessmen, politicians, academics and social organizations in a trade that helps in learning and improving of these interesting region relationships. Finally, the article serves as a framework to discuss briefly about some considerations between Korea and Mexico.
