Excellent- More about Constructing the East African Community: Diffusion from African and European Regional Organizations
This book explores how the East African Community (EAC) was established and decision-making processes influenced by other regional organizations from Africa and Europe. It finds that the EAC adopted substantial aspects from the first EAC, the EU, and the COMESA and adapted them to create its own institutional design. The perception of other regional organizations and their institutional design significantly impacted the construction of the EAC, challenging the notion of mimicry or replica regional organizations of the EU in the Global South.

The East African Community (EAC) emerged as a significant regional organization in the 1990s, driven by a systematic analysis of its institutional design. This book delves into the decision-making processes that shaped the EAC's establishment and explores how these processes were influenced by other regional organizations from Africa and Europe.
Analysing the decision-making processes that led to the set-up of the EAC, the book examines the extent to which they were impacted by several other regional organizations, namely the Organization of African Unity (OAU), the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the Southern African Development Community (SADC), the European Union (EU), and the first EAC. The findings indicate that the relevant east African state and non-state actors adopted substantial aspects from the first EAC, the EU, and the COMESA and adapted them to set up the current EAC.
This book demonstrates that the perception of other regional organizations and their institutional design considerably effected the construction of the EAC. Here, its own past provided crucial learning objectives, which challenge the notion of mimicry or replica regional organizations of the EU in the Global South.
This work will be of particular interest to scholars and students of regional and international organizations, international relations, multilevel governance approaches, as well as diffusion literature.
