What is it about?

The development of infrastructure in the East African Community currently deviates from the modernistic approach of the late 20th century, It manifests traits of postmodern Pan Africanism especially in designing cross-border infrastructure projects. This paper examines these manifestations by focusing on large infrastructure projects on the major transport corridors in the EAC region.
