Abstract
The growing struggle for world markets, increasing protectionism, clashes over monetary and debt issues as well as changing security concerns of states are all signs of a changing global economic order. Increasingly, this order is characterized by segmentation and composed of regional blocs. This chapter begins by reviewing the concept of regionalism, then moves to contextualize its normative appeal for southern African states. It concludes by highlighting the limits to regionalism in southern Africa.
