China’s economic expansion in Africa–selected aspects
The unprecedented rise of China attracts worldwide attention due to the scale of changes as well as the speed at which they occur. Growing economic power has allowed China to undertake economic and financial cooperation with many countries on all continents, Africa included. The Chinese engagement in Africa covers extensive trade relations, outward direct investment of private and public companies, as well as development assistance and a rising number of contracted projects. Beijing’s drive for African natural resources remains a key determinant factor accompanied by other drivers of political or social provenience. The paper presents the China–Africa economic partnership in different sectors based on an analysis of available datasets.
Wybrane aspekty ekspansji gospodarczej Chińskiej Republiki Ludowej w Afryce
Niepowtarzalny wzrost Chin przyciąga uwagę całego świata nie tylko ze względu na skalę zmian, ale także z uwagi na szybkość, z jaką one zachodzą. Rosnąca siła gospodarcza umożliwiła Chinom podjęcie współpracy gospodarczej i finansowej z wieloma krajami na wszystkich kontynentach, w tym z Afryką. Chińskie zaangażowanie w Afryce obejmuje rozległe stosunki handlowe, bezpośrednie inwestycje przedsiębiorstw prywatnych i publicznych, a także pomoc rozwojową i rosnącą liczbę kontraktów. Kluczowym czynnikiem determinującym zainteresowanie Pekinu jest popyt na afrykańskie zasoby naturalne, któremu towarzyszą inne czynniki polityczne i społeczne. Artykuł przedstawi partnerstwo gospodarcze Chin i Afryki w różnych sektorach na podstawie analizy dostępnych zbiorów danych.
