Preferred term

comparative regional integration  

Definition

  • Comparative regionalism refers to studies that examine similarities and differences among regional groupings in the global system to understand the underlying causes, processes, and effects of regional integration. Most comparative integration studies apply the frameworks of politics, economics, and law to analyze the context of regionalism and its effects on states and regions as a whole, but sociological studies of regionalism also abound.
