Offering an examination of the diplomatic and economic regional power structures in Africa and their relationships with each other, Dawn Nagar discusses the potential and future of pan-Africanism. The three primary regional economic communities (RECs) that are recognised by the African Union as the key building blocks of a united Africa are examined - these are the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the East African Community (EAC) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC). These RECS include Africa’s major economies – Egypt, South Africa, and Kenya but are also home to Africa’s most conflict prone and volatile states – the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Burundi, South Sudan, Somalia and Lesotho.
Providing a detailed overview of the current relationship between these power blocs, this book provides insight into the current state of diplomatic and economic relations within Africa and shows how far there is to go for a future of Pan-Africanism.

Dawn Nagar is Senior Researcher at the Centre for Conflict Resolution at Cape Town. She is co-editor of Region-Building in Africa: Political and Economic Challenges with Daniel H. Levine (Palgrave Macmillan, 2016) and Region-Building in Southern Africa: Progress, Problems and Prospects with Chris Saunders and Gwinyayi A. Dzinesa (Zed Books, 2012) and has been published in peer reviewed journals.
