Two books, two looks
at African regionalism 

African regionalism is the subject of two new books co-edited by Fredrik Söderbaum, an associate research fellow with UNU Comparative Regional Integration Studies (UNU-CRIS).

The New Regionalism in Africa, co-edited by Söderbaum and Andrew Grant, of Dalhousie University in Canada, goes beyond conventional the conventional state-centred notions of regionalism and analyses the complexities and contradictions of regionalism in contemporary Africa, integrating questions of human security and development.

Regionalism and Uneven Development in Southern Africa, co-edited with Ian Taylor from the University of Botswana, focuses on the current reconfiguration of Southern Africa with a critical examination of the Maputo Development Corridor, the flagship of the region's Spatial Development Initiative.

Both book are published by Aldershot: Ashgate.
