Implicações nacionais da integração regional: as eleições diretas do parlamento do Mercosul

O processo de institucionalização do MERCOSUL verificado nos últimos anos aumentou o peso da integração regional nas políticas internas dos Estados-membros. No caso brasileiro, o projeto de lei que regulamenta as eleições diretas para o Parlamento do MERCOSUL (Parlasul) em 2014 é um exemplo dessa influência, porque inclui aspectos que estão relacionados às discussões acerca da reforma do sistema político brasileiro, tema gerador de intenso debate e polêmica dentro do Congresso Nacional. Este artigo discute os possíveis impactos que a sua aprovação terá na condução da reforma política no Brasil, partindo da hipótese de que o referido projeto representa um transbordamento da reforma política brasileira para o plano regional. Supomos que sua aprovação pode se tornar um ensaio da reforma política planejada, ao executar no plano regional mudanças ainda em discussão no legislativo brasileiro. Lembramos que a decisão e aprovação dos critérios para realização das eleições diretas do Parlasul é de competência de cada Estado-membro.

This article discusses the possible impacts that its adoption will have on the conduct of political reform in Brazil, on the assumption that this project represents a spillover of political reform for Brazilian regional plan. We assume that its approval can become a test of political reform planned to perform at the regional changes still under discussion in the brazilian legislature. We remind that the decision and approval of the criteria for the Parlasul direct elections is a competence of each Member-State.
