The research examined whether the existing curricula of these courses are no spaces for the theme of Mercosur, as well as a possible equivalence of curricula. We investigated the formation of basic education teachers in Brazil and Argentina verifying that the curricula express their integration into Mercosur. The methodology used to develop the methodology of this research was exploratory, taking steps like document analysis and semi-structured interviews, based on a reference emerging qualitative data analysis. The analysis of the data found in both realities surveyed was understood through a contrastive perspective realizing the uniqueness of them. The researched object maintained a constant dialogue with the existing literature on curriculum, teacher training and Mercosur. Was used as strategies for data collection: research on institutional websites of the universities surveyed, the government agencies that regulate higher education in both countries surveyed and through semi-structured interviews involving teachers, course coordinators and representatives of the universities surveyed, as well as search and analysis of the educational laws of Brazil and Argentina on the subject, in addition to the observation of the two locus Education Institutions. The main findings were analyzed and reported as a guarantee of broad interpretation of the data. We conclude that although there was a significant volume of treaties and agreements in the educational field of Mercosur, the presence of its elements are hardly perceived in the curricula of schools surveyed.Acesso AbertoPolíticas de educaçãoEducation policiesMercosul - Ensino Básico - Brasil - ArgentinaMercosulFormação inicial de ProfessorInitial Training of TeachersProfessor - FormaçãoCurriculumDissertaçãoSociais e HumanidadesMultidisciplinar
