“…Simultaneously, such an approach is consistent with arguments for the need to change the African integration model, put forward by researchers worldwide, in response to mostly poor effects of the many years of activities of various African economic communities (McCarthy, 2007;Draper, 2013). Africa has witnessed no success in the implementation of the European integration model, assuming the achievement of deep integration stages.…”

Zawarte w 2015 roku trójstronne porozumienie o wolnym handlu Tripartite Free Trade Area (TFTA) między trzema regionalnymi porozumieniami handlowymi w Afryce (COMESA, SADC, EAC) jest pierwszym krokiem w kierunku utworzenia kontynentalnej, afrykańskiej strefy wolnego handlu Continental Free Trade Area (CAFTA), planowanej na 2017 rok. Celem artykułu jest próba oceny znaczenia zawartego porozumienia TFTA dla procesu regionalnej integracji w Afryce. W artykule zastosowano metodę analityczno‑opisową z wykorzystaniem krajowych i zagranicznych źródeł literaturowych oraz danych statystycznych Konferencji Narodów Zjednoczonych ds. Handlu i Rozwoju (United Nations Conference on Trade and Development – UNCTAD). Przeprowadzone zostały również badania empiryczne z wykorzystaniem wskaźnika wewnętrznej orientacji handlu (RTII). Dokonana analiza prowadzi do wniosku, że zarówno szeroki zakres przedmiotowy, jak i podmiotowy porozumienia Tripartite wskazuje, że może być ono ważnym krokiem w kierunku nowej strategii rozwoju integracji regionalnej w Afryce. Natomiast wyniki badań własnych sugerują, że nie zmieni się pozycja porozumienia w handlu światowym.

“…1 Furthermore, there is increasing interest in the role of regionalism in the global south (developing states) along with continued research on the long-studied regionalism of the global north (Western high-income states), with a particular focus on the most advanced modern integration project, the European Union [13][14][15][16]. As evidence of this interest, a forthcoming handbook on comparative regionalism includes chapters on Asia, Africa, Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, Middle East and North Africa, and North America [17].…”
