Sommario/riassunto

The debates over what African economic integration and development actually entails continue across international economic organizations, national governments and NGOs. Looking closely at these processes, this book combines theory with application, enumerating the imperatives and initiatives governments will be forced to confront and provides insights for policy makers, inter-governmental organizations



and educators and students in African development.
