Más información sobre el libro

The book explores China's economic growth since 2000, highlighting its strategic shift towards Africa for raw materials, which solidified through the establishment of the China-Africa Summits (FOCAC). Initially modest, these meetings gained momentum by 2006, culminating in the pivotal "white paper" that outlines China's objectives in Africa. Subsequent summits in 2009 and 2012 showcased China's dominance in African markets, emphasizing a "win-win" partnership based on mutual benefits, reflecting a significant shift in international relations and trade dynamics.
