Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent rapid growth in China’s involvement in Africa is being promoted by both Chinese and African leaders as being conducted in a spirit of cooperation, friendship and equality. In the media and informally, however, a different, less harmonious picture emerges. This book explores how China and Africa really regard each other, how official images are manufactured, and how informal images are nevertheless shaped and put forward. The book covers a wide range of areas where China-Africa exchange exists, including diplomacy, technological cooperation, sport, culture and arts exchange. The book also discusses the historical development of the relationship and how it is likely to develop going forward.
Download or read book China and Africa written by Daniela Forero Nuñez and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2023-03-29 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 2050, Africa will host one-quarter of the world’s population. Its growing economic importance can be traced back to the fact that the largest reserves of cobalt, diamonds, platinum and uranium in the world are found in this continent. Africa has furthermore the world’s largest free trade area (AfCFTA) and thus an enormous potential for global economic growth. This has brought along an increasing engagement of China in the continent. The aspects of Chinese African relations range from pure economic transactions and massive infrastructure investment to language policy. The varieties and possible geostrategic considerations accompanying the Sino-African partnership are examined in more detail throughout the following paper. The main question guiding the analysis is, therefore: what is the role of geostrategic considerations in China’s foreign policy toward the African continent?
Download or read book China in Africa written by Arthur Waldron and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in earnest at the turn of the twenty-first century, China embarked on a robust multilevel engagement strategy with a number of African states on three simultaneous fronts--economic, political, and military. The push was predicated by Beijing's need to secure energy and natural resources to fuel its booming economy and bolster its position as the world's manufacturing hub. The depth of China's engagement cannot be understated, and its increasing stakes in the security dimension of Africa's myriad conflicts is affecting the geopolitical landscape of a continent that has been in the past an exclusive domain of the West. C hina in Africa examines the multifaceted effects of China's engagement with the continent, both its many risks and opportunities. It provides critical and relevant information for understanding the strategic drivers, trends, and the potential impact of China in Africa. The book covers Chinese soft and hard power, energy and arms relations, and China's relations with individual African countries: Angola, Djibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Ultimately, this volume serves to assist in improving U.S. policymakers' understanding of China's role in Africa and ensure that appropriate measures are taken to secure American interests in the region.

Download or read book China and Africa Love Affair written by Francis Stevens George and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China and Africa Love Affair is a short historical account of the relationship between China and Africa. The love affair is a strong enthusiasm which has seen an interest and eagerness by the Chinese to engage in Africa. This work will show this. For Africans, in particular, the work will show the long ties that have existed between some of their countries and China. Understanding the history of Sino-African relationships is critical to what Africans can gain from this relationship. It is also critical to how Africans respond to the Chinese. Sino-African relations are evolving. Failure to understand the historical context in which this relationship has developed, will lead to misunderstanding and perhaps even conflict, which would be detrimental to both parties.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a range of perspectives on the Africa–China partnership in the context of the Forum on China and Africa Cooperation (FOCAC). Incorporating historical, political, social and cultural dimensions, it offers innovative views on the Africa–China relationship that combine theory and practice, and critically examines the prospects of a Pan-African policy towards China, complementary to China’s comprehensive African policy. The chapters address a number of key questions, including: What steps are being taken to achieve a more coordinated approach and policy towards China on the African continent? Does Africa even need a collective strategy in the first place? How would a coherent policy framework affect Africa’s relations with Europe and other external partners? How do the pillars of the partnership align with the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development?

Download or read book China Africa Relations in an Era of Great Transformations written by Li Xing and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection juxtaposes a variety of approaches about China and Africa, and their interrelations seeking to go beyond early, simplistic formulations. Perspectives informed by Polanyi advance nuanced analysis of varieties of capitalisms and double-movements. It seeks to put contemporary China-Africa relations in critical, comparative context and in doing so, it will go beyond descriptions of inter-regional trade and investment, large- and small-scale sectors, to ask whether structural change is underway. Already it is apparent that the growing presence of China in Africa presents the latter with some novel options but whether these will generate a new embeddedness remains problematic. Highlighting the ’varieties of capitalisms’ in the new century, given the undeniable difficulties of extreme neo-liberalism in the US and UK by contrast, to the apparent ebullience of the emerging economies in the global South, this book examines such implications for international relations, international political economy, development studies and policies.
Download or read book South Africa China Relations written by Chris Alden and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-23 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the pace of trade and investment picking up, coupled with closer international cooperation with Beijing through the G20, FOCAC and BRICS grouping, South Africa-China ties are assuming a significant position in continental and even global affairs. At the same time, it is a relationship of paradoxes, breaking with many of the assumptions that underpin contemporary analyses of ‘China-Africa’ ties. This edited volume examines the South Africa-China relationship through a survey of its diplomatic partnership, economic ties, and broader community relations. These important aspects that are often conflated as a single relationship, yet what is important to explore are how these components reflect different China-South Africa relationship(s), and how they intersect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title studies the relationship between China and Africa by reviewing this history and current state of interactions, offering a valuable addition to the often heated and contentious debate surrounding China's engagement in Africa from a Chinese angle. Comprised of four parts, the book covers a kaleidoscopic range of topics on Sino-Africa relations based on materials from different languages. The first part looks into early historical contact between China and Africa and historiography of African Studies in China in recent decades. Part Two contains a broad probe into the origin, dynamics, challenges and cultural heritage of China's policies towards Africa. The third part explores the issue of development cooperation from both the theoretical and practical point of view, with a focus on the case of Chinese medical teams in Africa and China's technology transfer to the continent. The final part illustrates bilateral migration, discussing the history and life of Chinese immigrants in Africa and the African diaspora in China. The insights in this book as well as real life case studies will make this work an indispensable reference for academics, students, policy makers and general readers who are interested in international issues and area studies, especially China-Africa relations, China's rise and African development.

Download or read book Africa and its Relation to China written by Esther Onomah and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-12-23 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, grade: A, University of Cape Coast, language: English, abstract: This essay seeks to discuss the assertion as to whether or not the African continent should be looking more towards increased partnerships with China, or strive to maintain its traditional trading relations, taking into consideration the globalized nature of the world economy and the dominance of powerful trading blocs. The paper argues that Africa should remain neutral as it would be ‘unwise’ for it to swing towards a more trading partnership with any power bloc. The essay is organized into three sections. The first section discusses globalization and the various phases it has taken over the years. Section two will examines Africa’s contact and history with its traditional trade partners. It also discusses the benefits Africa has derived and still derives from her trade with her traditional partner and hence should keep her ties with them. The section further looks at the disadvantages of Africa’s trade with her traditional partners and so Africa should look at increasing trade partnership with China. The third section of this paper focuses on Africa’s trade history and contact with China. The section further looks at some of the benefits Africa has enjoyed in their short term modern global trade with China, which has necessitated the need for the continent of Africa to increase her trade with China. This section again discusses the shortcomings Africa has faced as a result of her trade with China.
