Criticism of China’s relationship with certain African countries, particularly Sudan (Darfur) threatens to define the historical sports event. But when did China become such a major player in Africa and African politics. And what other areas of Chinese involvement are making an impact in Africa?

To help answer those questions we’ve prepared a trend brief exploring the growing relationship between China and Africa. The brief highlights the key issues which are of interest tothose who have an interest in this trend. While China has quietly been ramping up it’s involvement with African countries, the past couple of years has seen a significant increase in policies and events which continue to shape Africa’s future. Along with the brief, we have developed an interactive timeline which focuses on important events in the growth of the ChinAfrica relationship. Feel free to share both the ebook and the timeline in the Intelligence section with anyone you feel will benefit from the information we’ve gathered.
