Resumen
El presente artículo apunta las variaciones del concepto de facilitación y su evolución en los tradicionales Acuerdos de Protección y Promoción de Inversiones. Presenta el Protocolo de Cooperación y Facilitación adoptado por el Mercosur como una alternativa innovadora entre ellos. El artículo discute las perspectivas prácticas de la inclusión de las medidas de facilitación y si ellas representan una compensación por la ausencia de algunas protecciones típicas concedidas a los inversionistas.
