Contemporary Regional Development in Africa (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Interrogating well-known concerns in the areas of regionalism and economic integration in contemporary Africa, Contemporary Regional Development in Africa offers an added uniqueness by highlighting the capacity imperatives of the issues, and proposing critical policy guideposts. The volume juxtaposes a set of 'dynamic' entanglement - new and micro-regionalism, informal cross-border trade, intra-African and African FDI plus cross-border investments, infrastructure development, science and technology, regional value-chains, conflict management and regional security - with fluid interpretations of regional development.
