Zusammenfassung:"China's Relations with Africa is a timely intervention that covers the breadth of contemporary Sino-African political and security relations and offers a theory-driven explanation for where those elements fit in China's larger geostrategy. To date, most Western scholarship and popular accounts of China-Africa relations have focused on various aspects of Beijing's trade and development financing on the continent. China's political and security relations with Africa, to the extent they are examined at all, are generally cast in the context of U.S.-China rivalry and/or a renewed "great game" in Africa taking place among several nations, including France, India, Japan, and Russia. This book not only explains the specific tactics and methods that Beijing uses to build its political and security relations with African nations and political actors, but also places those engagements in the context of China's larger geostrategy towards the developing world."
