{"product_id":"china-into-africa-trade-aid-and-influence-used","title":"China Into Africa: Trade, Aid, And Influence-used","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfrica Has Long Attracted China. We Can Date Their First Certain Involvement From The Fourteenth Century, But East African Citystates May Have Been Trading With Southern China Even Earlier. In The Midtwentieth Century, Maoist China Funded And Educated Subsaharan African Anticolonial Liberation Movements And Leaders, And The Prc Then Assisted New Subsaharan Nations. Africa And China Are Now Immersed In Their Third And Most Transformative Era Of Heavy Engagement, One That Promises To Do More For Economic Growth And Poverty Alleviation Than Anything Attempted By Western Colonialism Or International Aid Programs. Robert Rotberg And His Chinese, African, And Other Colleagues Discuss This Important Trend And Specify Its Likely Implications.Among The Specific Topics Tackled Here Are China'S Interest In African Oil; Military And Security Relations; The Influx And Goals Of Chinese Aid To Subsaharan Africa; Human Rights Issues; And China'S Overall Strategy In The Region. China'S Insatiable Demand For Energy And Raw Materials Responds To Subsaharan Africa'S Relatively Abundant Supplies Of Unprocessed Metals, Diamonds, And Gold, While Offering A Growing Market For Africa'S Agriculture And Light Manufactures. As This Book Illustrates, This Evolving Symbiosis Could Be The Making Of Africa, The Poorest And Most Troubled Continent, While It Further Powers China'S Expansive Economic Machine.Contributors Include Deborah Brautigam (American University), Harry Broadman (World Bank), Stephen Brown (University Of Ottawa), Martyn J.
