dc.description.abstractThis article is a treatment on how southern Africa might best develop a regional response to mitigate the vagaries of globalisation. It opens with a review of the literature set on regionalism. The authors then explain that in southern Africa regional interaction is at present best characterised by what is known as market-driven or open regionalism. Although this form of regionalism has resulted in both external and internal increases in trade and investment, it is not sustainable. As a consequence, the authors argue that the South African government is leading a new thrust within the region in the form of developmental regionalism that marries the state to the market. After tracking the theoretical developments of this new departure, they demonstrate clearly how change is taking place in practice, by looking at the case of regional electricity generation.en_ZA
