Geschichte und Politik
Decolonization's Legacies, Sovereignty and the African Union
Focusing on Africa's integration process, this study offers a fresh perspective by analyzing the African Union through the lens of individual states rather than organizational structures. It presents a thorough and systematic examination of the factors influencing the AU's development, aiming to understand the reasons behind the lack of progress toward a supranational organization. This novel approach provides valuable insights into the dynamics of state interactions within the continent's integration efforts.
