This book examines the past, present and prospects of regional economic integration in Africa. The empirical analysis ranges from unions formed during the years following independence, to the proposed African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), which aims to remove trade barriers between all 55 African states. In addition, the book explores to what extent Africa?s Regional Economic Communities (RECs) have advanced in accordance with a linear integration model of goods, labor and capital markets.
