Pressestimmen
' - the first attempt in recent years to examine African views of China' London Review of Books. 'anyone interested in economic developments in Africa - and China - will find much useful material here' Charlie Hore, Socialist Review 'This book is both an interesting and easy read, granting the reader access to an enriching debate and opening new questions. Bringing us a global vision of China's role in Africa in its small number of pages, the book is essential for lovers of contemporary Africa seeking an African perspective' Tania Adam, Centre d'Estudis Africans, Barcelona
Kurzbeschreibung
China's involvement in Africa has provoked much debate and discussion. Is China just the latest in a line of exploiters of Africa's rich natural resources who put their own economic interests above humanitarian, environmental or human rights concerns? Or is China's engagement an extension of 'South-South solidarity'? Does China's involvement enable African countries to free themselves from the tyranny of debt and conditionality that, through two decades of structural adjustment programmes, have reversed most of the gains of independence? Or is Africa swapping one tyranny for another? Much of the commentary on China in Africa focuses either on assessing how Western capital's interest might be affected, or on denouncing China for practices that have for centuries been the norm for US and European powers - support for dictators, callous destruction of the environment, exploitation of minerals, and complete disregard for human rights. Lost in that noisy debate has been the voice of independent African analysts and activists. They are heard in this unique collection of essays from the prize-winning weekly electronic newsletter, Pambazuka News. As these articles demonstrate, there is no single 'African view' about China in Africa, but the authors are united by their concern for, and commitment to, social justice for Africa's people. The contributors include: Ali Askouri, Horace Campbell, Michelle Chan-Fishel, Moreblessings Chidaushe, John Blessing Karumbidza, Daniel Large, Anabela Lemos, Firoze Manji, Stephen Marks, Ndubisi Obiorah, Kwesi Kwaa Prah, Daniel Ribeiro and John Rocha.

Nice collection of African views
14. August 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a nice collection and cross-section of African views on China's fast-growing relations with Africa. No stunning analysis or data, and not a very wide range of viewpoints, but it is useful to hear from some African experts themselves rather than from China or international relations scholars, journalists, or political pundits with a particular bias.

Knowledge is a good thing
5. Juli 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
This book provides, in a series of essays, a reasonable overview from several perspectives of the involvement of China in Africa. Really, it is a necessity for any person who considers themselves to possess a well rounded educated and a lively interest in the world to read books such as this. We need to keep ourselves informed in regards to the background of present situations, the firsthand observations of people and their opinions. Understanding of politics and events in various African countries such as Zimbabwe or Sudan is facilitated by reading books like this. There are several such books available. This one is both highly readable and informative.
