The present work develops indicators of regional integration in order to conduct a multidimensional analysis of Mercosur in the period of 1991 to 2006. One premise is that Mercosur cannot be considered a sui generis case but an example of regional integration organization such as the European Union or the Andean Community of Nations. In that sense, although the indicators are developed to be applied in Mercosur, they could be applied in other organizations of regional integration.
