The Organs of Economic Co-operation in Africa
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 July 2009
Extract
In studying economic co-operation in Africa, it might be useful to start with an investigation of the special characteristics of African international organizations, and the effect of these characteristics on the modalities of African economic co-operation.
Any comparative study of African international organizations has to take into account the bewildering variety of these organizations, and the difficulty of classifying them in a meaningful fashion. There are many factors which need to be considered, as well as the fact that most organizations belong at the same time to various categories. When one tries to evaluate the respective merits of various organizations, one finds quickly that it is really not a particular feature of an organization that matters, but that an organization's performance depends, to an important extent, on the special mixture of various characteristics, which is peculiar to that organization.
