Panel Organiser: Frank Mattheis

While Africa’s intraregional cooperation and relations with Europe are being increasingly scrutinized, less effort is being dedicated to the various external ties of African regions. This panel proposal aims at bringing together scholars investigating the multifaceted relations spreading across the South Atlantic, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. Central to the panel will be the diffusion of ideas between regional organizations with regard to the multidimensional aspects of integration.
