Exploiting Africa

Exploiting Africa examines China's historical role in Algeria, Ghana, and Tanzania from the 1950s to the 1970s, an important yet often overlooked aspect of the broader subject of China in Africa today. During this time China meddled in Africa's affairs with its own self-interest in mind and for the benefit of the Communist Party of China. The Chinese arrived in Africa with little fanfare, yet they maintained an active presence that was more pragmatic than revolutionary. >
