This book presents a number of key studies pertaining to the most
pressing challenges of economic regional integration in West
Africa. The issues of monetary coordination, foreign exchange
volatility, taxation, savings and macroeconomic convergence are
investigated from a regional perspective. The characteristics of
West Africa's trade policy are reviewed and assessed in comparison
to that of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The
extent to which regional integration can tackle the challenge of
unemployment is the focus of studies on labour markets. Development
of the private sector and coordination of regional cross-border
transportation are examined through the lens of economic
collaboration between Arab and African countries. The book provides
fresh new answers to persistent development questions and sheds new
light on long-held views that are either incomplete or no longer
true. It also opens new perspectives on the search for sustainable
avenues for Africa's development. In this regard, it may contribute
to the emergence of a new paradigm on Africa's development process
and its science-based, policy-oriented implementation.
