Abstract

In this century, the economic dimensions of international agreements have taken on special relevance. Socialist theory has denounced as "unequal" those Treaties and Agreements that were the product of the domination of capitalism. International relations are essentially an economic interrelation, a vast network of commercial interdependencies that brings countries together in a close material union. But these material ties have been unparalleled in the creation of normative precepts that transform this economic interrelation into moral progress. The States have not agreed on the fundamental principles of economic justice that must be accepted for the historical evolution of the peoples to follow a peaceful course. However, the denunciation of economic coercion made in the Vienna Declaration can contribute to reducing these differences in values.
