Sumario:The article presents a consistent and methodical description of the genesis, expansion and consolidation of the Bolivarian Alliance of the Americas (ALBA), conceived as a new counter-hegemonic regionalism and anti- capitalist. It seek to demonstrate that this is the most pretentious initiative in goals (anti-imperialist and anti-capitalist), more disruptive in relation to the integration mechanisms developed in Latin America and the Caribbean since the war and especially under neoliberalism, and more effective for the factual support it receives from multiple energy, trade and social inclusion measures (Petrocaribe, Bank of ALBA, SUCRE, among others). In short, it is proposed that ALBA has shown —more than any other initiative— that an alternative to capitalism is possible.
