Regional Integration, Trade and Industry in Africa

Více o knize

The book explores regional economic integration in Africa, tracing its evolution from post-independence unions to the ambitious African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), which seeks to eliminate trade barriers among all 55 African nations. It provides an empirical analysis of the progress made by Africa's Regional Economic Communities (RECs) in aligning with a linear integration model that encompasses goods, labor, and capital markets, highlighting both achievements and challenges in the integration process.
