This book examines the AfCFTA, dissecting its key provisions. It stresses the importance of the AfCFTA in the context of increasing episodes of trade protection in Africa, and it theorizes on the role of the treaty organs. The book also examines the importance of citizen participation for the success of the AfCFTA, as well as exploring the role sub-state actors can play. Ultimately, the study adds to the understanding of the array of problems that are associated with regional trade in Africa and the role law plays in resolving these problems. It will be of importance to academics and students of international law, especially those with an interest in African trade law, as well as legal professionals and policymakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Cases viii\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Treaties x\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgement xiii\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcronyms xiv\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement: The Development of a Rules-Based Trading Order 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 The Importance of a Rules-Based and Open International Trading Order 10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 The Civic Republican Deficit in Africa and the Failure of Postcolonial Trade Arrangements 29\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 Principles of the AfCFTA 56\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 The AfCFTA and Protectionism in Africa 95\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 The AfCFTA Governance Structures 121\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 Sub-National Governments and the AfCFTA 147\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 The AfCFTA Dispute Settlement System 160\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8 Conclusion 177\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBibliography 203\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex 232\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52083936067927,"sku":"9780367280079","price":128.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780367280079.jpg?v=1762204408","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-african-continental-free-trade-area-agreement-9780367280079","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
