Description du livre
The 2025 edition of the African Economic Report continues in the spirit of previous versions. It presents a broad overview of the continent’s economic evolution and offers insights into Africa’s relationship with the rest of the world. In other words, it explores how Africa navigates the effects of global fragmentation within its regional spaces while pursuing its ambition of continental integration.The structure of the Report maintains the three foundational pillars of its original configuration: a first section that assesses macro- and meso-economic developments in Africa; a second section that examines changes or progress within the African Economic Communities; and a third section that focuses on key issues related to the implementation of the main protocols of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), including rules of origin, services liberalization, investment cooperation, competition policy, and public procurement management.This new edition also introduces innovations within each of these three pillars, as well as in the presentation of new analytical and discussion sections.
