Abstract
Given the current complexity of performing a comparative analysis of European Union Law and Andean Community Law as a result of growing pluralistic internationalization, the mere idea of coordinating the various regional legal pluralism leads us to reassess the great principles of interpretation of the law as a representation of both the diversity and the unity of a supranational legal system. Nowadays, it does not seem possible to define the boundaries of the internationalization of Regional Integration Law, as they are vague and permeable. It is therefore necessary to study the center of this legal internationalization based on the comparison of macro-principles of a universal type. Proportionality and subsidiarity can be analyzed from a comparative perspective based on the jurisprudence of the ECJ and TJCA. The first principle may be viewed as a means of coordinating community rights while the latter may be viewed as a means for the coordination of community competences.
