Trans-Borderism and the African Predicament: Critical Socio-Economic Analyses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798892489683)

This seminal volume offers a critical examination of the socio-economic dynamics of trans-borderism in Africa, exploring the complex challenges and opportunities that arise from cross-border interactions. Trans-borderism is a phenomenon characterised by the movement of people, goods, and ideas across international borders. It presents both opportunities and challenges for African communities. Featuring 16 chapters contributed by various African scholars, the book provides a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the trans-border experiences of African communities. Through a rigorous socio-economic analysis and a multidisciplinary approach, the contributors analyse the historical, geographical, political, economic, and social factors that shape trans-borderism interactions in Africa. The book delves into four main themes, embodied with issues such as migration, cross-border agro-economy, trade, stranger factor, conflict, culture for peace, and identity formation.
