Deborah Brautigam Livres
Depuis plus de deux décennies, le Dr Deborah Bräutigam éclaire les complexités de la Chine et de l'Afrique, en se concentrant sur la construction de l'État, la gouvernance et l'aide extérieure. Ses recherches examinent de manière critique la divergence entre les réalités et les perceptions courantes concernant les investissements agricoles chinois en Afrique. Bräutigam plonge dans les relations complexes entre les nations en développement et les puissances mondiales, explorant la dynamique de la construction de l'État et l'impact de l'aide extérieure. Ses analyses offrent des perspectives profondes sur la manière dont les économies émergentes naviguent dans le paysage mondial et façonnent leurs propres trajectoires politiques.

"Is China a 'rogue donor'? Or is China helping the developing world pave a pathway out of poverty? Media reports about huge aid packages, support for pariah regimes, regiments of Chinese labor, and the ruthless exploitation of workers and natural resources in some of the poorest countries in the world have sparked fierce debates. China's tradition of secrecy fuels rumors and speculation. China has ended poverty for hundreds of millions of its own citizens. But what are the risks and opportunities in China's growing embrace of Africa?" "This book provides answers. With colorful stories and hard data, Deborah Brautigam portrays the sometimes surprising realities of Chinese economic engagement in Africa. Drawing on three decades of experience China and Africa, and hundreds of new interviews across Africa, China, Europe, and the US, Brautigam's book shines new light on a topic of great interest. It is essential reading for anyone concerned with China's rise, and what it might mean for the challenge of ending poverty in Africa."--Jacket
