摘　　要：20世纪50年代以来,全球已经历三次区域化浪潮,其中第三次浪潮仍方兴未艾。对于发展中国家而言,合作似乎永远是一个"政治正确"的选择,区域一体化总是受到学者和政治人物热捧。然而,发展中国家的区域一体化进展并不顺利,多数甚至连关税同盟都未完全建成,加勒比共同体是其中的典型,一体化说得多做得少。本文从政治经济学视角,将区域一体化定义为公共产品区域成员结构化共享,建立了以一体化程度为目标函数、以一体化收益和成本为约束条件的分析框架,对加勒比一体化现状进行了评估和分析。结果显示,加勒比一体化迄今仍停留于"纸面一体化",其根源在于一体化的收益与成本不匹配:一方面,一体化的规模经济效应与范围经济效应不明显;另一方面,克服经济制度和经济政策偏好异质性的成本高昂。此外,由于加勒比地区国家广泛存在主权迷思,区域机构得不到充分授权,公共产品供应能力受到限制,降低了公共产品区域共享收益。Since the 1950 s,the world has witnessed three waves of regional integration.For developing countries, regional integration is always a hot topic and advocated by scholars and political figures. However,the regional integration process advanced much more slowly than people have expected. In most developing regions,some basic integration arrangements like the customs union are still pending issues. The integration process in the Caribbean area is in the same dilemma. By regarding regional integration as public goods for member countries,this paper develops a political economic analysis framework using trade return and the cost of public goods sharing as binding conditions. It is concluded that it is difficult for the Caribbean integration to move forward because its return is unable to cover the cost by now. The scale effect is low while the heterogeneity cost is high. It is especially notable that the integration institutions has not been fully authorized by regional countries,thus restricted their ability to provide public goods,decreased the return of sharing public goods and increased the cost in collective provision of public goods.
