Nigeria and South Africa account for about a third of Africa’s
economic might, and have led much of its conflâ–¡ict management
initiatives over the last three decades. Both account for at least
60 per cent of the economy of their respective sub-regions in West
and Southern Africa. The success of political and economic
integration in Africa thus rests heavily on the shoulders of these
two regional powers who have both collaborated and competed with
each other in a complex relationship that is Africa’s most
indispensable. Nigeria remains among South Africa’s largest
trading partners in Africa, while both countries have cooperated in
building the institutions of the African Union (AU). Both countries
have also had a tremendous cultural impact on the continent in
terms of Nollywood movies and the expansion of South Africa’s
corporate sector into Africa. This book assesses Nigeria/South
Africa relations in the areas of politics, economics, and culture
within the context of rivalries and hegemony. Biographical
profiâ–¡les are also provided of important â–¡gures from both
countries.
