This collection is remarkable for confronting the challenges posed by the rise of China as a global economic and military power which has upset the post-World War II global balance of economic (and military) power. This collection offers insightful perspectives on bilateral and multilateral engagement of African countries with China, in the face of the specter of Chinese re-colonization of Africa through debt peonage., China in Africa: Imperialism and Partnership in Humanitarian Development provides a platform for unpacking China's historical, multilateral, and bilateral relations with Africa's regions and countries, and for critically examining the most recent trends in China's impact on Africa's development. I recommend this book to scholars, practitioners, and readers with a keen interest in understanding the trajectory of China-Africa relations, and more fundamentally, how to channel the burgeoning relations towards reversing the effects of centuries and decades of Africa's underdevelopment.--Cyril Obi, Social Science Research Council, New York This collection is remarkable for confronting the challenges posed by the rise of China as a global economic and military power which has upset the post-World War II global balance of economic (and military) power.
