【龙腾网】拉美圈讨论:各位拉美同胞们,你们如何看待拉美大一统这种想法?
正文翻译

What do you fellows Latin Americans think about the idea of a unx between Latin American countries?
To be clear, I'm not talking about some kind of Latino USSR out of some neocon's worst nightmare, but about an EU-like unx, a federation/confederation of sorts.
各位拉美同胞们,你们如何看待在拉美国家之间结成一个联盟?
我说得再准确一点,我谈论的并不是某种拉美版的苏联,而是一种类似欧盟的联盟,类似联邦/邦联那样的。
评论翻译
1、Nah it would be like Brazil and Mexico and its subordinates, we would be like Luxembourg
(巴拿马)不不,这样的话,就会变成巴西和墨西哥坐大而其他国家成为它们从属国的局面了,而我们就像是卢森堡。
(回复1)I don't really believe including Mexico and Central America is feasible even under the most favorable conditions.
Too close to the US.
(巴西)我不太相信纳入墨西哥和中美洲国家能有什么可行性,哪怕在最有利的情况下也不可行。
他们距离美国太近了。
2、I feel like this question is asked every 15 minutes and a cup of tea.
(阿根廷)我感觉这个问题每隔15分钟就有人问,喝口茶的功夫就又冒出来了。
3、The idea isn't bad, but Ithink we need a higher level of development—and similar development levels—in each country before trying out something like that.
(巴拿马)想法还不赖,但我认为我们在做这种试验之前,需要先让每一个国家拥有更高的发展水平,乃至近似的发展水平。

4、Ideally I would prefer to unite will the other lusophone countries, but some kind of common market with other south american countries isn't bad (not a unified country, please). I would just exclude Mexico, because they would hinder my plans to turn the unx into a Great Brazilian Empire, MUAHAHAHAH!
(巴西)理想化地说,我更希望和其他葡语国家统一,但和其他南美国家打造出某种共同市场也挺不错的(但是拜托,可别统一成一个国家)。我想都不用想就会把墨西哥排除在外,因为他们会阻碍我把这个联盟转变成一个大巴西帝国的计划啊哈哈哈!


6、I like the idea, but I prefer a commercial block like the EU with free movement of capital, goods, people, etc. But at the same same time Imagine Brasil, Chile, Venezuela Colombia and Argentina sharing macroeconomic policy, some countries rather kill itself before that.
我挺喜欢这个主意,但我更喜欢欧盟那种商业集团,资本、货物、人员等等能自由流动。但与此同时,想象一下巴西、智利、委内瑞拉、哥伦比亚和阿根廷套用同一套宏观经济政策,在走到这一步之前,有些国家宁可去自杀。


9、If Panama stops being a country, who will launder all of your money???
要是巴拿马不再是一个国家,你打算找谁替你洗钱呢?
10、I don't really feel we have a lot in common with other latinos other than Uruguayans and maybe Chileans
(阿根廷)除了乌拉圭人,也许还有智利人,我是真不觉得我们和其他拉美人有多少共同点。
11、Something like the EU might work - but - organizers would have to be careful to make sure that Mexico and Brazil don't dominate.
(哥斯达黎加)或许类似欧盟的架构还是可以玩转的,但是组织者必须很小心,确保不要让墨西哥和巴西称王称霸。


13、I don't think our politicians and peoples are capable of constructing something as elaborate as the European unx.
They barely manage to mismanage Latin America as it is.
(萨尔瓦多)我不觉得我们的政治家和人民有能力构建出像欧盟这样复杂严密的组织。
他们的能力仅仅停留在把拉丁美洲搞砸的水平上,事实如此。

Brasil is also fucked up, middle income trap and shit.
(巴西)如果委内瑞拉(出现了政权更迭)和你们国家的形势在未来能稳定下来,那也许有可能实现进一步的整合。
巴西这边也是个烂摊子,身陷中等收入陷阱什么的。
15、Nah man, currently Mexico is on the verge of balkanizing because of regional differences with the Central Goverment, i don't think a Latin American unx would work, at least not with the current situation.
(墨西哥)不不,如今的墨西哥因为各地区和中央政府不对付,正濒临巴尔干化的边缘,我不觉得拉美联盟能运转起来,至少在当前的形势下没有可能。
16、No thanks
(智利)不用了,谢谢
17、Is the opposite, the world will be better with more small countries.
Forced unxs are bad, and even bad when the countries are so different cultures and people.
正相反,如果出现更多小国家,全世界反而会变得更好。
强行捏合的联盟是很糟糕的,而如果这些国家的文化和人民差异巨大,结盟就更糟糕了。
18、Aside from the immense cultural and economic differences, how you get Mexico City to listen to Brasilia or Lima or Buenos Aires is beyond me. The brunt of Mexicans I've encountered were ferociously patriotic and proud to be Mexican, even defiantly so. Why would such people submit themselves to foreign governments? It'd be more likely Mexico simply reannexed Central American.
我就不明白了,除去文化和经济方面的重大差异,你要怎么让墨西哥城听巴西利亚、利马或布宜诺斯艾利斯的话。我遇到的大部分墨西哥人,都满怀着汹涌的爱国之情,而且为自己是墨西哥人而骄傲,甚至到了目空一切的地步。这样的人民怎么可能屈从于外国政府呢?更有可能出现的情况是:墨西哥再次悍然吞并中美洲。

20、I know this question is asked a lot, but since I'm in favor or Latin American integration I don't mind. I love the topic, however I think your mixing up terms in your question. An EU-like unx is not a federation, but a confederation. In the former the member states are subordinates to the central government (like in the USA or Brazil) while in the later the member states control the central government (like the EU).
(多米尼加共和国)我知道问出这个问题已经有很多次了,但因为我赞成拉丁美洲一体化,我不介意再回答一次。我很喜欢这个话题,但我认为你在问题中把两个术语搞混了。一个类似欧盟的联盟并不是一个联邦,而是邦联。在前者的情况下,成员国是从属于中央政府的(比如美国和巴西的情况),而在后者的情况下,中央政府是由成员国控制的(比如欧盟)。

21、Patria Grande is dead and not coming back. The primarization of economies reduce intra-region trade and integration, empowers economic actors with little interest in regional integration and the USA-China conflict brings undue attention to the region, and that attention includes divide and conquer, coming from both powers.
(阿根廷)南美统一已经死透了,也不会再复活了。经济的初级化减少了区域内的贸易也降低了一体化程度,也就使得经济行为的主体对区域一体化丧失了兴趣,而且美中冲突给该地区带来了过分的关注度,而这种同时来自两个强国的关注包含了分而治之。
22、Is a beautiful dream, however in the end is just a dream.
好一个美梦,不过到头来也不过是一个梦罢了。
