Abstract
This thesis includes three studies to assess historical evidence of the failure of Colombia and South America to achieve regional integration and the role played by exports other than coffee in the period of greatest industrial development in Colombia during the 20th Century. A wide range of theories and empirical models are deployed for this purpose. First regional integration is evaluated in the whole American continent with a new database of global bilateral trade for two time periods: 1870-1913 versus 1914-1950, and from this study the Andean countries, and particularly Colombia, emerge as the least regionally integrated territories.
