This book was released on 2009 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'émergence de la mondialisation, induisant des répercussions aux niveaux économique et politique, a mis a mal les mutations régionalistes survenues en Afrique. Plus qu'une transformation de la vision de la coopération entre les états, ce sont les systèmes étatiques en eux-mêmes qui vont subir de lourdes métamorphoses avec la création du NEPAD (acronyme de Nouveau partenariat pour le développement de l'Afrique). Quelles vont alors être les nouvelles relations entre états, quelles évolutions politiques internes et internationales vont en être induites ? C'est à ces questions sur l'avenir de l'Afrique que Patrice Moundounga Mouity tente d'apporter des réponses. Sur un thème d'actualité, l'état de l'Afrique aujourd'hui, Patrice Moundounga Mouity arrive à mettre en exergue les points essentiels de l'avenir de l'Afrique. Il pointe les évolutions des pays africains, dresse des bilans pertinents, démontre les changements intervenus aux niveaux économique et politique et tente d'apporter des solutions, ou tout le moins suggestions, pour dépasser les problèmes rencontrés.

Book excerpt: Le phénomène de mondialisation constitue après celui de la guerre froide, l'un des événements majeurs des transformations politiques et économiques contemporaines. Ces mutations ont conduit à la reconfiguration de l'espace monde et des relations internationales. Dans cette perspective, le régionalisme est apparu comme l'une des réponses à la faveur de ces changements économiques au niveau global et de l'exemple historique sans commune mesure du NEPAD. C'est dire que la coopération entre Etats est dominée dorénavant par la dynamique de partenariat. Le partenariat au développement est aujourd'hui devenu un des thèmes politiquement parlant des relations internationales à l'ère du nouveau régionalisme. Il s'agit d'un événement international qui, sur le plan théorique renouvelle et enrichit l'analyse internationale en combinant flux transnationaux et formation des institutions et, sur le plan pratique, diffuse toute une vision du monde en redéfinissant le jeu de la puissance mondiale. Face à l'institutionnalisation du NEPAD, le continent africain tente de se créer de nouvelles marges de manoeuvre pour s'arrimer à la mondialisation afin d'essayer de modifier sa position marginale internationale afin d'éviter son "confinement à la périphérie de la politique mondiale". En cela le NEPAD est à la fois une réponse politique au fait international de régionalisation et une alternative à la souffrance des institutions, mieux un moyen de réagir face à l'impossibilité de la démocratie qui fonctionne mal sur ce continent. Ce qui justifie ce glissement de légitimité du pouvoir au comptable, issu dans le "mécanisme africain d'évaluation par les pairs".

Download or read book The New Politics of Regionalism written by Ulf Engel and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume approaches regionalism as one potential pattern in a changing global order. Since the end of the Cold War, different forms of territorialization have emerged and we are confronted with an increasing number and variety of actors that are establishing regional projects. This volume offers an innovative contribution to the study of this new complexity by exploring constellations of regional actors, spatial scales and imaginations beyond state-centred perspectives as well as on multiple, often overlapping levels. The chapters analyse the emergence, trajectories and outcomes of regionalisms from the perspective of the Global South, specifically concentrating on regional projects in Latin America and Africa, but also in the Asia-Pacific. They attempt to identify the specific conditions and junctures of different forms of region-making in their external (global) and internal (local/national) dimensions. The volume also places special emphasis on interactions, spatial entanglements and comparisons between regionalisms in different parts of the world. By expanding beyond the perspective of North-South transfers, this book seeks to better understand the dynamics and diversity of interregional interactions. This volume will appeal to scholars of global studies, international political economy, international relations, human geography, and development studies, as well as area studies specialists who focus on Latin America and Africa.

Download or read book Governing Africa s Forests in a Globalized World written by Laura Anne German and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many countries around the world are engaged in decentralization processes, and most African countries face serious problems with forest governance, from benefits sharing to illegality and sustainable forest management. This book summarizes experiences to date on the extent and nature of decentralization and its outcomes - most of which suggest an underperformance of governance reforms - and explores the viability of different governance instruments in the context of weak governance and expanding commercial pressures over forests. Findings are grouped into two thematic areas: decentralization, livelihoods and sustainable forest management; and international trade, finance and forest sector governance reforms. The authors examine diverse forces shaping the forest sector, including the theory and practice of decentralization, usurpation of authority, corruption and illegality, inequitable patterns of benefits capture and expansion of international trade in timber and carbon credits, and discuss related outcomes on livelihoods, forest condition and equity. The book builds on earlier volumes exploring different dimensions of decentralization and perspectives from other world regions, and distills dimensions of forest governance that are both unique to Africa and representative of broader global patterns. The authors ground their analysis in relevant theory while drawing out implications of their findings for policy and practice.

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.
