    DescriptionAlthough ECOWAS continues to maintain transitional arrangements with the departed Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, this case of differentiated disintegration exposes deep regional divides, challenges ECOWAS’s cohesion, and calls for reform of West Africa’s governance frameworks, write Stefan Gänzle, Tobias C. Hofelich, and Jens-Uwe Wunderlich.
