A Study on Formation and Development of Trans-Border Trading in East Africa

本研究通过分析东非国家间的跨境贸易来探讨多层次全球化。在这项研究中，很明显，在东非关税同盟改革后，服装贸易商之间正在发展更大的贸易网络，以一种脱离基于种族、宗教或家乡地区的现有关系的方式，将东非的城市连接起来。在发达国家和发展中国家争夺市场的竞争中，东非国家鼓励东非关税同盟的改革（本地化），使终端贸易商能够以“本地化”为基础重组全球独特的服装贸易网络（再全球化）。

This study approaches multilayered globalization through analysis of trans-border trading among countries in East Africa. In this study, it became clear that larger trading networks were now being developed, connecting cities in East Africa, among clothing traders in a manner that is detached from the existing relationships based on ethnicity, religions, or home-town regions, after the reformation of the Eastern African Customs Union. The reformation of the Eastern African Customs Union(localization), encouraged by the countries in East Africa against the race to capture the market between advanced countries and developing countries, has allowed end traders to reorganize a global and unique clothing trading network(re-globalization) set on the"localization."
