Abstract: | This publication addresses various aspects of the globalization process, especially as they interact with regional security issues in the IGAD (Inter-Governemental Authority on Development) region, which covers seven countries in East Africa: Eritrea, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Somalia, Sudan, Kenya and Uganda. The chapters identify the main security security challenges in the region and analyse various aspects of regional security, such as political, economic and gender aspects. Other chapters comment critically on the various subregional organizations engaged in security issues, such as the IGAD and the East African Community (EAC). In addition, the book analyses the current peace processes in the Sudan and Somalia. Finally, it suggests a security architecure in the IGAD region and examines the challenges facing its design and implementation. The book is based on a conference on regional security issues in the age of globalization, which was held at the Nairobi Safari Club from 16-18 March 2004.
