Abstract
Regional associations of States were born first of all as a need to build true indipendence through integration and cooperation : this in developing countries coincided with the end of colonialism . In this study we retrace the steps that go first from the 60s to the end of the 70s and then the 80s. The inevitable impact of both the crisis of the industrial system of the late 1970s and that one of the new global capitalist system at the end of the 1980s with need for larger and more competitive markets. After retracing the history of the creation of the ECOWAS and examining its political and economic achievements before the 1990's, the Author emphasizes topics such as political instability, the effects of military coups, presidential and parliamentary elections and the freedom of the mass media.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
