It offers a multifaceted exploration, examining both regional and informal processes of socioeconomic and political interactions between state and non-state actors. By reassessing the functioning of actors in this relationship, the book sheds light on the implications for regionalism, regionalization, and regional integration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the formalized state-to-state and inter-regional interactions, the book delves into the profound impact of socio-economic and political engagements with non-state actors. These actors include civil society activists, \"African migration evangelists,\" human smugglers, and human traffickers, who play significant roles in shaping regional integration through both formal and informal processes. The book thus demonstrates that regional and inter-regional engagements encompass a broader spectrum of issues, extending beyond the traditional focus on trade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten from an African perspective, this book appeals to academics specializing in International Relations, Political Economy, Political Sociology, and African Studies. It provides valuable insights for policy makers and various actors in civil society and think tanks who have an academic interest in trade, migration, and regionalism in Africa and Africas relations with Europe. The book's comprehensive analysis and insightful perspectives make it a valuable resource for understanding the complex dynamics shaping the Africa-European Union relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032323824\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44528842637562,"sku":"9781032323824","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692379946025_book.jpg?v=1693481239","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/africaeu-relations-and-the-african-continental-free-trade-area-9781032323824","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
