Abstract:A little studied strategy for integration is for African states to lay the basis for regional economic intergration through functional cooperation, for example, in transport, Industrial development, trade, and monetary policy This article examines the prospects and problems of this kind of co-operation in West Africa with regard to seaport development. Regional collaboration can be achieved most easily at the administrative and technical level The second level of multi-national action for the port development (co-ordination of port investment policy) is more difficult. Sections of the article: Administrative and technical collaboration (Standardisation: Problems of port operation; Problems of port development) - Integration of developnent policy (Justification; Some impediments; Regional impacts) - Conclusion. Notes map of the ports of West Africa.
