Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, grade: 55%, Staffordshire University, language: English, abstract: This study is guided by the guiding statement: Globalization and Regionalism: How are these two salient theories in International Relations mutating within the East African Community member nations? Originally, the EAC had only three member nations, and they encountered political turbulence which disrupted its cohesion in the 1960s and 1970s. The Mediation Agreement gave it a lifeline. Upon its revival, globalization and regionalism implicitly and explicitly became the guiding factors that guided and still guide the ¿new¿ EAC, which now has an expanded membership of seven neighboring nations. EAC is one of the fastest-growing sub-regional economic integration unit in Africa and in the world. The study extrapolates how globalization and regionalism have impacted on the globe and corroborates these factors with what is happening in the EAC sub-region.
