Beschreibung
Regionalization of higher education in Africa is the least
researched topic in the field of Social Science. In this
regard, this book is a pioneer in terms of exploring both
the historical and theoretical dynamics of regionalization
processes within Africa. The interplay manifested within the
book between Political Science theories and higher education
concepts makes the whole analysis strong and solid. The book
raises fundamental questions that focus on context and
formation, operationalization and implications, and
challenges and prospects of regionalization processes in
Africa. In doing so, it gives both, the analytical contexts
of the evolution of higher education regionalization in
Africa and the current initiatives by the African Union as a
whole.
Emnet Tadesse Woldegiorgis is a Political

Currently he is a post-doctoral researcher at the University
of Bayreuth, Germany. His research focuses on
regionalization and internationalization of higher education
in Africa.
