Manifestation of a hegemony of the Republic South Africa's foreign policy at the regional, continental and global scenes was analysed in this paper. South Africa strongly emphasizing its African identity and having at her disposal all features of the regional hegemon was not able to take over decisive political leadership of the SADC region and of the continent. The thesis suggests and documents that perception/impact of South Africa's foreign policy increases proportionally to the distance between Pretoria/Tshwane and a capital of a country/region or organization. Analysing trends of socio-economic changes in South Africa the author came to the conclusions that impact of South Africa's foreign policy at the international scene will be decreasing with time.

Regional market integration is crucial in increasing development for emerging economies. However, research has shown that, in the case of developing countries, the process of market integration faces various obstacles. This study aims to analyse the key determinants of successful market integration for developing countries, as well as to investigate under what conditions some countries may benefit more (or less) than others from market integration, particularly in the SADC region. Based on the existing literature on the main debates and theories on regional market integration of developing countries, this study has used the method of process-tracing to investigate the causal relationship between governance and institutions, market integration and development. The analysis based on this study has found that good and sound policies aimed at increasing domestic capabilities deriving from both public and private governance and institutions is vital in determining relative market integration success. The results indicate that the discrepancies found among SADC Member States hinder the process of regional market integration. On this basis, it is recommended that the linkages between the SADC Member States be strengthened through increased levels of coordination and integration.
