The book examines a variety of regional arrangements - ASEAN, SAARC and APEC in Asia, NAFTA and MERCOSUR in the Americas, SADC, SACU and ECOWAS in Africa, and the European Union, EFTA and Eastern Europe. One of the main themes of the book is that dynamic gains of regionalism will accrue through trade and foreign direct investment.
