Regional economic communities and integration in Southern Africanetworks of civil society organizations and alternative regionalism /[electronic resource] :by Leon Mwamba Tshimpaka, Christopher Changwe Nshimbi, Inocent Moyo. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2021. - xxi, 263 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2: Historical background and conventional approaches to regional integration: Africa and the SADC -- Chapter 3. New Institutionalism and the New Regionalism Approach to regional integration -- Chapter 4. Informal - formal interface: Southern African civil society networks versus SADC and official regulatory regimes -- Chapter 5. Alternative and people-centred approaches to regional integration -- Chapter 6. Typology of institutional arrangements of southern African civil society networks -- Chapter 7: Towards a people-centred approach to regional integration.

This book examines regional integration in Africa, with a particular focus on the Southern African Development Community (SADC) It argues that the SADC's pursuit of a rationalist and state-centric form of integration for Southern Africa is limited, as it overlooks the contributory role and efficacy of non-state actors, who are relegated to the periphery. The book demonstrates that civil society networks in Southern Africa constitute well-governed, self-organised entities that function just like formal regional arrangements driven by state actors and technocrats. The book amplifies this point by deploying New Institutionalism and the New Regionalism Approach to examine the role and efficacy of non-state actors in building regions from below. The book develops a unique typology that shows how Southern African regional civil society networks adopt strategies, norms and rules to establish an efficient form of alternative integration in the region. Based on a critical analysis of this self-organised regionalism, the book projects the reality that alternative regionalism driven by non-state actors is possible. This book expands the study of regionalism in the SADC, and makes a significant and innovative contribution to the study of contemporary regionalism.
