Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together African and European experts from a variety of disciplines to examine the origins and current state of the East African Community (EAC). Over the course of the book, the authors analyse the rich tapestry of intraregional relations in East Africa, the EAC’s similarities with the European Union and the future challenges faced by the organisation. Widely regarded as the most advanced and successful regional integration scheme in Africa, the EAC is an intergovernmental organisation consisting of Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda and, since 2016, South Sudan. It is the oldest among Africa’s regional economic communities, and among the continent’s most promising growth areas, with a long history of integration, punctuated by several false starts and traumas that have profoundly affected its body politics. When initially set up, the EAC model bore a striking resemblance to the process undergone by the European Union. Now, as the EAC continues to establish its own identity, this book argues that whilst Europe’s history may provide useful insights for EAC member states, the EAC experience could in turn also offer lessons for the European Union. Covering key dimensions such as integration, co-operation, development, trade and investments, this book highlights the intricate and complex relationships between East African states, and it will be of interest to researchers working on economic development, international relations, peace and security and African studies.

Book excerpt: An East African common market, composed of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanganyika, has been in existence since 1922. An attempt is made to (1) assess the gains and losses resulting from the operation of this common market, both from the point of view of East Africa as a whole and that of the three participant economies individually; (2) consider the gains likely to result from continuation of the common market, in either its present or an expanded form; and (3) evaluate several measures that might improve the performance of the common market and suggest a course of action the East African governments might follow.

Download or read book Economic Union in East Africa written by Benton F. Massell and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discussion is limited to the effect of the East African Common Market on investment in manufacturing. This is not because of an assumed unimportance of the agricultural and mining sectors, nor because economic development is identified with industrial development. Rather this focus reflects a belief that economic integration among a group of less-developed countries has its principal effect on industrial development. This is probably especially true in the East African case. Because agriculture and mining are geared largely to export markets, they receive little direct stimulus from an expansion of the local market. It is doubtless true that economic integration has a secondary effect on nonindustrial sectors, arising from the increase in industrial output that in turn is stimulated by economic integration. However, this report is concerned only with the primary effects.

Book excerpt: "In this work Richard E. Mshomba offers an in-depth analysis of economic integration in Africa with a focus on the East African Community (EAC), arguably the most ambitious of all the regional economic blocs currently in existence in Africa. Economic Integration in Africa provides more than just an overview of regional economic blocs in Africa. It also offers a rich historical discussion on the birth and death of the first EAC, starting with the onset of colonialism in the 1890s, and a systematic analysis of the birth, growth, and aspirations of the current EAC. Those aspirations include forming a monetary union and eventually an East African political federation. This book also examines the African Union's aspirations for continent-wide integration as envisioned by the Abuja Treaty. Mshomba carefully argues that maturity of democracy and good governance in each country are prerequisites for the formation of a viable and sustainable East African federation and genuine continentwide integration."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
Download or read book A Critical Analysis of Role of Print Media in the East Africa Community EAC Integration written by Thomas Muema and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Print Media, Press, grade: none, course: Communications, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this study was to establish the impact of print media on the East African Integration. It was guided by five objectives which aimed at establishing the amount of coverage that print media gives to EAC issues, determining the issues given priority by the print media as regards EAC, establishing how print media frames issues related to EAC, establishing the accuracy, framing and balancing coverage of the East African Integration. The literature review for the study focused on such things as the integration of the African continent in general. The idea of integration has been encouraged by rapid spread of globalization which is forcing many countries of the world to come together to form regional blocks for closer cooperation in trade issues among others. The agenda setting theory was advanced to explain the role of print media in the integration process. The study results validated all that is advocated by the agenda setting theory. The study used content analysis as a survey design. This entailed analyzing the contents of the articles dealing with East African Integration. In general the study shows that the print media as presented by The East African has a positive influence on issues of integration. Some of the articles published by the newspaper shows that trade, the economy, education, infrastructure and the common market protocol have benefited a lot from integration efforts.
