商品描述

This book discusses the phenomenon of regional integration in Africa and the ensuing discourse on the intercontinental free trade agreement within the continent. Long before the move for the facilitation of free trade in Africa, freedom of movement by Africans within Africa backed up by the AU Protocol on free movement of persons has been in existence and in one way or the other both moves are closely related. The book explores the existing relationships between the ECOWAS Protocol on free movement, goods and services and AfCFTA on one hand and the impact of the implementation and non-implementation of these policies on West Africa on the other hand.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書討論非洲地區一體化現象以及隨之而來的大陸內自由貿易協定的討論。在非洲推動自由貿易之前,非洲人在非洲內的自由移動已經存在,並且以非洲聯盟關於人員自由移動的協議作為支持,這兩個行動在某種程度上密切相關。本書探討了西非經濟共同體關於人員自由移動、貨物和服務的協議以及非洲大陸自由貿易協定之間的現有關係,以及這些政策的實施和未實施對西非地區的影響。
