El Tratado de Abuja y la Comunidad Económica Africana

La Comunidad Económica Africana, es una organización fundada en 1991 por el Tratado de Abuja y dependiente de la Unión Africana, producto de la unión de los países africanos.

Actualmente existen en África múltiples bloques regionales conocidos como RECs (Regional Economic Communities) los cuales se solapan entre si. Los REC consisten en acuerdos comerciales principalmente pero también establecen sus miembros tratados de cooperación económica y política. Estos REC forman los pilares de la AEC (African Economic Community).
