description This study goals to present and analyze the elaboration and development of the Experimental Mechanism (Mexa) that gave rise to the regional accreditation process of undergraduate courses of the Common Market of the South (Mercosur). For that, the conception of its design, its application, its impacts and its contributions to the establishment of the Regional Accreditation System of Undergraduate Courses were approached. Methodologically, the research was based on documentary analysis and interviews with people who participated in the elaboration and / or application of the Mechanism, focusing on the actions of the Member States that founded the bloc. It was verified that if on the one hand it is possible to consider that the Mexa favored the culture of the evaluation and the accreditation of the higher education in the region, bringing as achievement the joint construction of the whole process by its participants, on the other, the limitations of its experimental character created some problems for the regional process, hindering its application on a large scale.

Este estudio tiene como objetivo presentar y analizar la elaboración y el desarrollo del Mecanismo Experimental (Mexa) que originó el proceso regional de acreditación de carreras de grado del Mercado Común del Sur (Mercosur). Fueron considerados la concepción, su diseño, su aplicación, sus impactos y las contribuiciones para el establecimiento del Sistema de Acreditación Regional de Carreras Universitarias. Metodologicamente, la pesquisa se basó en: análisis documental y en entrevistas realizadas con participantes de la elaboración y/o aplicación del Mecanismo, enfocándose las acciones de los Estados miembros originarios del bloque. Por fin, se concluye que, si por un lado es posible considerar que el Mexa favoreció la cultura de evaluación y de acreditación de la educación superior en la región, teniendo como logro la participación de los Estados en en su construcción; por otro lado, las limitaciones de su carácter experimental le generaron vicios al processo regional que dificultan su aplicación en gran escala. Este estudo objetiva apresentar e analisar a elaboração e o desenvolvimento do Mecanismo Experimental (Mexa) que deu origem ao processo regional de acreditação de cursos universitários do Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul). Para tanto, abordaram-se a concepção de seu desenho, sua aplicação, seus impactos e suas contribuições para o estabelecimento do Sistema de Acreditação Regional de Cursos Universitários. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa se baseou em análise documental e em entrevistas realizadas com sujeitos que participaram da elaboração e/ou aplicação do Mecanismo, enfocando-se a atuação dos Estados-membro originários do bloco. Aferiu-se que se por um lado é possível considerar que o Mexa favoreceu  a cultura da avaliação e da acreditação do ensino superior na região, trazendo como logro a construção conjunta de todo o processo por seus participantes, por outro, as limitações de seu caráter experimental eivaram de vícios o processo regional, obstaculizando sua aplicação em larga escala. 2017-04-26 2022-03-21T16:36:25Z 2022-03-21T16:36:25Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Documentary research using interviews Investigación documental con el uso de entrevistas Pesquisa documental com utilização de entrevistas https://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/riesup/article/view/8650575 10.22348/riesup.v3i1.7680 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/68926 por https://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/riesup/article/view/8650575/16788 Copyright (c) 2017 Revista Internacional de Educação Superior application/pdf Universidade Estadual de Campinas Revista Internacional de Educação Superior; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2017): jan./abr.: Temática: Políticas de Educação Superior e Trabalho Docente; 46-65 Revista Internacional de Educação Superior; Vol. 3 Núm. 1 (2017): jan./abr.: Temática: Políticas de Educação Superior e Trabalho Docente; 46-65 Revista Internacional de Educação Superior; v. 3 n. 1 (2017): jan./abr.: Temática: Políticas de Educação Superior e Trabalho Docente; 46-65 2446-9424
