This book examines key challenges to the cultivation of social cohesion at the regional and national levels. It asks the question whether regional integration as currently practised presents a hospitable site for the cultivation and delivery of social goods in Africa and elsewhere in the developing world. Without discounting the national and sub-national levels in the addressing of social goals, the volume indicates a path to greater awareness of the impediments to agreement on social policy at the regional level, examining the different conceptions of social cohesion across regions; the impediments to social cohesion in the African and Latin American regional integration models; and, the domestic level progress of social cohesion, especially in South Africa and Vietnam.
Candice Moore holds a PhD from the London School of Economics and Political Science, an MPhil from the University of Cambridge, and a BA Honours degree from the Rand Afrikaans University. Her research at the NRF-SARChI Chair at the University of Johannesburg focuses on the foreign policies of emerging states, mainly South Africa and Brazil, as well as the development of IR theory in these two countries. She has long held an interest in regional integration in Africa and beyond.
