Toward Peace and Security of Somalia and the Horn of Africa. aThis book delves into the Inter-Governmental Authority for Development's (IGAD) endeavors to enhance security and economic integration in the Horn of Africa. While aspiring to unite and stabilize the region, IGAD faces complex historical, strategic, and geographical challenges. Through a political economy approach, the book showcases IGAD’s strengths and weaknesses and employs neorealist and regional security complex theories to analyze the involvement of states and non-state actors in IGAD's security agenda, particularly in relation to Somalia. The study highlights opportunities and obstacles to sustainable regional integration, offering practical policy suggestions for curbing armed uprisings and inter-state disputes. It dissects the geopolitical dynamics involving international players like the United States and China, as well as regional powers such as Ethiopia, in IGAD's pursuit of security and economic progress. Valuable for researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders invested in the Horn's security and development, the book bridges gaps in the literature, shedding light on African political development, regional peace and security.
