China and Africa - An equal partnership or new colonialism? How does Africa benefit from the Sino-African cooperation?
China und Afrika - eine gleichberechtigte Partnerschaft oder Neokolonialismus? Inwiefern profitiert Afrika von der chinesisch-afrikanischen Zusammenarbeit?
- The thesis explains the economic and political motivation of China's drive towards Africa, the political framework for this and the approach to the African continent via trade, investment and aid. The Sino-African cooperation is exemplified by the countries Angola, Sudan, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa. Finally several points of criticism and the perceptions of the Western world towards China's engagement with Africa will be examined.
