| description | This article seeks to interpret and explain contradictory trends in the hemispheric and regional governance of the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on an extensive mapping exercise of cooperation and institutional trends, this article depicts a mix of conflicting governance tendencies, both negative and positive, as well as disarticulated and collaborative. The author argues that the existing governance of the pandemic in the hemisphere stems from the historical convergence and intertwining of two macro governance patterns in health security in recent decades: inter-presidentialism and orchestration by regional organizations. Despite the impression of individualized national responses and governance dysfunctionality, a veritable effervescence of heterogeneous hemispheric and regional forms of cooperation and institution-building has occurred against the virus and its broader fallout. Thanks to their resilience and organizational capacity, various formal regional organizations and development banks managed to offset at least partially disturbing trends in pathological inter-presidentialism through their roles as governance orchestrators. On the basis of its findings, the article calls for theoretical cross-fertilization among comparative regionalism, neoliberal institutionalism, and global governance studies, as well the construction of networked inter-presidentialism in order to counterbalance the worst impulses of presidents. |

Este artículo se propone analizar tendencias contradictorias en la gobernanza hemisférica y regional de la pandemia de Covid-19. Basado en un extenso ejercicio de mapeo de las dinámicas institucionales de cooperación, en él se describe una mezcla de tendencias de gobernanza conflictivas, tanto negativas como positivas, así como desarticuladas y colaborativas. El autor sostiene que la gobernanza de la pandemia en el hemisferio surge de la convergencia histórica y de la vinculación de dos pautas de gobernanza en la seguridad sanitaria, en las últimas décadas: el interpresidencialismo y la orquestación de las organizaciones regionales. A pesar de la impresión de que las respuestas fueron nacionales e individualizadas y de que resaltaron las disfuncionalidades de los esquemas de gobernanza existentes, observamos una efervescencia de formas heterogéneas de cooperación y creación de instituciones hemisféricas y regionales contra el virus y sus consecuencias más amplias. Gracias a su capacidad de resistencia y organización, varios organismos regionales formales y bancos de desarrollo lograron compensar al menos parcialmente las pautas perturbadoras del interpresidencialismo patológico a través de sus funciones como orquestadores de gobernanza. Sobre la base de sus hallazgos, en el artículo se hace un llamado al intercambio fecundo de ideas entre el regionalismo comparativo, el institucionalismo neoliberal y los estudios de gobernanza global, así como la construcción de un interpresidencialismo en red para contrarrestar los peores impulsos de los jefes de estado y de gobierno.
