Abstract

The era of globalisation and the staggering growth of upcoming economic powers are bringing new actors to Africa. The most important new actor at the moment is China, a country in need of huge quantities of raw materials to support its economic growth. Since African countries presently lack the physical and human capacity to exploit their own reserves, and acutely need to reconstruct ageing infrastructures and weak economies, a win-win scenario seems possible.
