Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, grade: 55%, Staffordshire University, language: English, abstract: This study is guided by the guiding statement: Globalization and Regionalism: How are these two salient theories in International Relations mutating within the East African Community member nations? Originally, the EAC had only three member nations, and they encountered political turbulence which disrupted its cohesion in the 1960s and 1970s. The Mediation Agreement gave it a lifeline. Upon its revival, globalization and regionalism implicitly and explicitly became the guiding factors that guided and still guide the ¿new¿ EAC, which now has an expanded membership of seven neighboring nations. EAC is one of the fastest-growing sub-regional economic integration unit in Africa and in the world. The study extrapolates how globalization and regionalism have impacted on the globe and corroborates these factors with what is happening in the EAC sub-region.

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: 60%, Staffordshire University, language: English, abstract: This essay tries to answer the question, whether the current time can be described as an era of deglobalization.The genesis of deglobalization can be traced from the advent of 1997 Asian financial crisis, the 2008 global financial crisis and the world economic order based on liberal, rule based multilateral principles which are resilient and durable. The changing dynamics of the world economic order has motivated deglobalization to take root. This creates a world without superpowers and ironically at the same time still remains to be multiplex and multipolar.
