Africa Futures

Published in association with Brill, Africa Futures features cutting-edge research that critically reflects on some of the big questions relevant to imagining Africa’s future as a place. The series emerges out of CODESRIA’s strategic focus on futures and alternatives, showcasing rigorous scholarly interventions that engage constructively with African futures, and rooted in research that challenges orthodoxies associated with dominant, but often problematic discourses about the continent. Wide-ranging in its scope, Africa Futures encourages interdisciplinary thinking about Africa’s developmental challenges that are informed by history. Both individual monographs and edited volumes are welcome.

Afrique Futurs

Publié en association avec Brill, Afrique Futurs présente une recherche de pointe qui réfléchit de manière critique sur certaines des grandes questions pertinentes pour imaginer l’avenir de l’Afrique. La série découle de l’orientation stratégique du CODESRIA sur les futurs et les alternatives, en présentant des interventions scientifiques rigoureuses qui s’engagent de manière constructive dans les futurs africains, et qui s’appuient sur des recherches qui remettent en question les orthodoxies associées aux discours dominants, mais souvent problématiques, sur le continent. D’une portée très large, Afrique Futurs encourage une réflexion interdisciplinaire sur les défis du développement de l’Afrique qui sont influencés par l’histoire. Les monographies individuelles et les volumes édités sont les bienvenus.

Description

This comparative book debates migration and regional integration in the two regional economic blocs, namely the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). The book takes a historical and nuanced citizenship approach to integration by analysing regional integration from the perspective of non-state actors and how they negotiate various structures and institutions in their pursuit for life and livelihood in a contemporary context marked by mobility and economic fragmentation.
