    Este artículo analiza la ralentización de la globalización tras la crisis de 2008 y la creciente relevancia del Sur Global, enfocándose en el acortamiento de las cadenas de valor y la regionalización de insumos críticos. Examina los desempeños generales y sectoriales del Norte Global y el Sur Global, con énfasis en el posicionamiento de Sudamérica. Se emplea un modelo insumo-producto multi-país y ejercicios de extracción hipotética de insumos críticos. Los hallazgos identifican desafíos y oportunidades para los países sudamericanos en el proceso de regionalización, aportando elementos clave para comprender su impacto en los espacios macro-regionales.

    This article examines the slowdown of globalisation following the 2008 crisis and the growing significance of the Global South, focusing on value chain shortening and regionalisation in critical inputs. It analyses the general and sectoral performances of the Global North and Global South, with particular attention to South America’s positioning. A multi-country input-output model is employed, incorporating hypothetical extraction exercises for critical inputs. The findings highlight challenges and opportunities for South American nations within the regionalisation process, offering key insights into its implications for macro-regional spaces and their evolving dynamics.
