Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2011, Vol 4, Issue 16
Abstract
This paper discusses the theories of regional integration and provides an explanation to the relevance or otherwise of the entire concept as a global developmental strategy. Hence, the paper is divided into four major parts, thus, part one introduces the discussion and provides a brief definition of regional integration; part two gives a brief explanation on why states or nations integrate, while part three discusses the various forms of integration. The theories of regional integration are discussed in part four, while a short summary and a conclusion round off the paper.
