This book was released on 2009 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le processus de régionalisation implique la prise de conscience collective des pays soucieux d'améliorer leur essor économique et social. Dans cette étude, la principale problématique est de concilier la coopération Sud-Sud à l'efficience coopérative et économique. En effet, si la présence de l'Afrique du Sud au sein de la SADC garantit une crédibilité internationale à la zone, il importe tout de même de souligner que la région australe est en proie à des sérieux maux susceptibles de fragiliser et d'anéantir les efforts et les effets attendus du régionalisme. Bien qu'elle crée du commerce et attire les investissements étrangers, la SADC doit s'atteler à résorber non seulement les problèmes d'ineffocience politique mais aussi les problèmes sociaux tels que les violences civiles, les guerres raciales et ethniques et la pandémie du VIH/Sida, si elle souhaite préserver son dynamisme économique. C'est pourquoi l'intégration régionale, avec l'appui de la communauté internationale, doit jouer un rôle capital dans ces domaines. Nos résultats empiriques montrent effectivement que si les pays de la SADC arrivent à contourner les obstacles liés à leur union régionale, la zone australe pourrait, grâce à ses atouts, développer des meilleures perspectives en terme de développement économique et de région émergente.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 972 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sous les effets de la globalisation, la situation en Afrique australe est en train de changer en profondeur. Cette région, relativement cohérente par son histoire et sa situation de finistère sud du continent, excepté de ses territoires insulaires Madagascar, l’île Maurice et Seychelles, est sans doute appelée à s’ajuster à une nouvelle configuration de l’économie mondiale.Depuis l’arrivée au pouvoir de l’ANC en 1994, les gouvernements sud-africains n’ont ménagé aucun effort visant à reformuler leur politique à l’égard du reste de l’Afrique australe. Une telle approche gouvernementale initialement focalisée sur la mise en œuvre des principes démocratiques se veut, en effet, réformiste et pragmatique devant les réalités complexes de la région, d’autant plus qu’elle a été renforcée par nombre d’initiatives au cours de ces dernières années.L’Afrique du Sud, dotée d’une puissante économie mais éloignée des grands marchés internationaux, s’est donc engagée dans le processus d’intégration régionale, en l’occurrence la SADC, pour réaliser des économies d’échelle, tout en se positionnant en tant que point d’ancrage « naturel » susceptible d’accélérer le développement de la zone. Malgré la proximité géographique, ledit processus n’a pas généré d’effet tangible et reste confronté à un certain nombre d’obstacles importants. Une réflexion globale est nécessaire.C’est cette problématique que l’auteur tente d’analyser, à savoir qu’il accorde toute leur importance aux divers enjeux de coopération et d’intégration auxquels les États membres sont confrontés, tout en mesurant le degré d’adéquation aux fins poursuivies des moyens mis en œuvre par leurs gouvernements, avant de faire entrevoir les perspectives d’avenir qui se dessinent dans l’ensemble de la région.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 1086 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La stabilité du Cameroun, du Gabon, de la RCA et du Tchad se voit surtout menacée par le fait que ces états ne sont pas suffisamment capables à garantir la sécurité de leurs populations. Ceci peut entre autre être lié à la nouvelle conception élargie de la sécurité. Face à l’ampleur de certains défis ou à leur nature transnationale, l’Etat présente un acteur non approprié pour répondre à l’ensemble des besoins sécuritaires de ses ressortissants. Cette étude vise à montrer que le régionalisme pourrait permettre une approche adéquate pour parer aux menaces de déstabilisation. en Afrique centrale, il se pose cependant le problème que, malgré leur relance dans les années 1990, les processus de régionalisation n’ont toujours pas permis de dégager les capacités nécessaires pour une approche efficace des défis contemporains. Ceci peut non seulement s’expliquer par l’orientation économique mais surtout aussi par la structure intergouvernementale des deux organisations régionales, la CEMAC et la CEEAC. En accordant une place prédominante aux représentants des Etats, ces processus ne semblent pas avoir été adaptés au nouveau contexte international et aborder les questions pertinentes pour la sécurité humaine. En se fondant sur une analyse des théories du régionalisme et en faisant appel à l’exemple de la SADC et de la CEDEAO, cette étude cherche à montrer qu’une ouverture des structures régionales aux acteurs non-étatiques pourra constituer une voie pour rendre le régionalisme plus performant sur le plan sécuritaire et renforcer son effet sur la stabilité. ainsi serait-il possible d’envisager le passage de l’état de coopération à une logique d’intégration régionale.
Download or read book Fast Tracking the SADC Integration Agenda to Unlock Regional Collaboration Gains Along Growth Corridors in Southern Africa written by Alexis Habiyaremye and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite more than two decades of economic integration efforts, levels of spatial development inequality remain high within the Southern African Development Community (SADC). Owing to persistent delays in the implementation of the SADC integration agenda, infrastructure connectivity is still overly inefficient, while cumbersome customs also continue to impede the free movement of goods and services. This hampers the growth potential of planned spatial development initiatives in the region. This study aims to analyse how the development of regional growth corridors and the deepening of SADC integration could help to ease existing connectivity bottlenecks and unlock the dynamic gains of closer intra-regional collaboration for shared growth. It examines the structural challenges to the emergence of dynamic growth corridors and probes the potential for overcoming them through territorial collaboration between metropolitan clusters and rural areas connected by transport corridors. The development of growth corridors requires the adoption of new production techniques and the application of concomitant skills and know-how. This study therefore also explores the absorptive capacity requirements for structural transformation and surveys existing facilities and incentives for technological capability building.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African Convention on the conservation of nature and natural resources was adopted in 1968 in Algiers. Considered the most forward looking regional agreement of the time, it influenced significantly the development of environmental law in Africa. Two and a half decades of intense developments in international environmental law made it necessary to revise this treaty, update its provisions and enlarge its scope. This was undertaken under the auspices of the African Union (previously OAU), and the revision was adopted by its Heads of State and Government in July 2003 in Maputo. The introduction provides an overview of this new international treaty, as well as a commentary to each of its provisions.

This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper on the Democratic Republic of Congo discusses economic policies and development. The macroeconomic and budget framework has been developed to take into account the effects of sectoral policies to maintain macroeconomic stability, a necessary condition for laying the foundation of economic growth and poverty reduction. It is based on the profile of public spending, the assessment of costs for achieving the Millennium Development Goals by 2020, and the sector-based economic growth theories taking into account the uncertainties of the international environment and the real potential of the Congolese economy. It is found that it allows for a realistic programming of public spending while highlighting the main budgetary choices proposed by the government.

This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intriguing and provocative results on the effects of the single European market and NAFTA make this short book worth a read, even if one is concerned only with how developing countries have been affected by regional trade agreements that do not include them. Peter J. Montiel, Journal of Regional Science This book is an excellent attempt to pin down the effects of regional economic integration on developing countries. . . it will prove to be a good guide for researchers and students of development economics working in the area of regional trading arrangements, and policymakers and governments which are in the process of exploring the possibilities of forming free trade areas. Pravakar Sahoo, Development Policy Review Students interested in either the methodological issues inherent in research on trade or on the economics of trading blocs in general would profit from the book. James J. Hentz, The European Journal of Development Research Questions related to the economics of regionalism became increasingly important beginning in the late 1980s, when regional groupings started to become very popular as a tool of commercial policy. The goal of this book is to address the question of whether or not regionalism in developed countries has truly benefited developing countries and to what degree regionalism among developing countries and between developed and developing countries will improve economic development prospects. Mordechai Kreinin and Michael Plummer consider the implications of the emerging global trend of economic regionalism for developing countries. The analysis focuses on the trade and investment effects of integration in developed countries on developing countries, as well as the ramifications of regional integration in the latter. After an extensive review of the theoretical and empirical literature pertinent to the economics of regionalism, the book considers the ex-post trade and direct-foreign-investment effects of the Single Market Program in Europe and NAFTA, followed by chapters on ASEAN and economic integration in Latin America, primarily MERCOSUR. The study suggests three salient conclusions. First, in designing preferential trading arrangements, developed countries should recognize and attempt to minimize the possible discriminating effect on developing countries. Second, the developing countries have an abiding interest in the success of WTO negotiations that would minimize the discrimination against them of regional groupings in Europe and North America. And third, any customs unions or free-trade areas among the developing countries themselves should be outward-looking if they are to enhance the welfare of developing countries. Economists and policy scholars, as well as readers interested in regionalism and economic development, will find this book a great resource.
Download or read book A United States of Africa written by Eddy Maloka and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A substantial work on the question of unity of African states, containing essays from twenty-four scholars from universities throughout Africa. The papers revolve around four main subjects. The first examines the colonial origins of the African state, neo-colonial constraints on post-colonial regimes, and the nature of the post-colonial political elite. The second subject under discussion is regional integration as a vehicle for the realisation of the African Union. Dani Wadaba Nabudere contributes an overview chapter on African unity in historical perspective; and many contributors consider the complicating phenomenon of globalisation alongside regional integration. The next part examines the extent to which problems of peace and security impact upon the integration project; and the effectiveness of existing regional and continental conflict prevention and resolution mechanisms. Xavier Renou analyses the present roles of France and America on the continent as an obstacle to peace and unity in a chapter entitled 'The New Franco-American Cold-War'. Finally, three contributors address the need for an approach to African unity for development better grounded in civil society and to a lesser extent centred around the role of the state.
