| Summary/Abstract |
The recent spotlight on Communist China's relations with African nations is not the first time it has occurred, nor will it be the last. In the 1960s, similar commentators and supposed scholars on the subject brought attention to the "Red Peril" or "Red Invasion" descending onto Africa. The past obsession was with Communist expansionism; the current one, with access to raw materials and natural resources. What past and current assessments fail to account for fully, however, is Chinese grand strategy - and one grand strategic instrument, in particular, called political warfare. Long ago discarded and ignored by the Western powers, political warfare, rightly understood, is a nonviolent instrument of grand strategy involving coordinated activities that have tangible effects on intended targets. China on the African continent used this assistance of a different kind in the past and continues to use it today. This historical case study of Chinese political warfare in Ghana sheds light on China's past operations in Africa, which has direct implications for its current policies and potential responses to them

| Summary/Abstract |
The China-Africa Summit of 4-5 November 2006 was the largest ever high-level conference on Africa held outside of the continent. In its relations with African countries, China has traditionally avoided presenting itself as a donor, preferring to see itself as a large developing country working alongside other developing countries. It pursued a gradualist and integrated approach towards cooperation that emphasised the mutuality and two-sidedness of the cooperation. However, the various pledges, promises and targets included in 'The Beijing Action Plan-2007-2009' that was unveiled at the Beijing Summit gave it more of an aid flavour. While this need not make China into a Western or Japanese style donor, it will certainly have a series of consequences for China's relations with Africa.

| Summary/Abstract |
In the first decade of the 21st century China has been able to enter political, military and commercial deals with countries of the asean community, the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, and the countries and observers in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (sco). In November 2006 China sealed this circle with a strategic partnership with Africa at a major feast of leaders celebrating the friendship and co-operation between the two. The emergence of China as a force in Africa complicated the tussle between the EU and the USA over the 'who controls Africa'. The new relations between Africa and China could be described in the words of Gramsci, as, 'the old is dying yet the new is yet to be born'. Chinese relations with Africa combine elements of the old (extraction of raw materials), yet the experience of transformation in China ensures that there are many positive and negative lessons to be learnt. What is new is the prospect for the consolidation of African independence and the challenge to the hegemony of the dollar and US imperialism. I argue in this paper that, in the short term, one of China's most important roles will be to break the disarticulation between the financial and productive sectors of the economy and to stem the outflow of capital from Africa. In the long run the experience of linking new ideas of science and technology to a home grown path of reconstruction can be an important lesson for Africa. State-to-state relations are usually opportunistic and it is for this reason that transnational civil society linkages between the Chinese and African people will be more important than relations between leaders

| Summary/Abstract |
In recent years, China has strengthened its relations with African countries in all spheres-political, economic and military. China's rising profile in Africa is shaped by its desire to garner strategic support against the 'America hegemony', promote South-South cooperation, counter Taiwan's inroads in Africa, explore commercial opportunities and finally, and most importantly, the need to feed the rising domestic demand for natural resources. For Africa, China's renewed interest in the continent is a win-win situation. China provides an alternative 'power direction' and support of the developing world. The allure of replicating the Chinese model of development is another important factor. India's relations with Africa are quite distinct and it does not need to view Africa through the Chinese prism. Nevertheless, the scale and pace of China's engagement of Africa is way ahead of India's. At this juncture India should provide an alternative model based on promoting skills and technology-based partnership, the hallmark of Indian economic growth

| Summary/Abstract |
FOCAC 2006 concluded a year that was dubbed by the Chinese leadership as China's 'Year of Africa'. On the surface, the 'Year of Africa' demonstrated a striking success for China. However, there are important factors that can undermine the relationship between Africa and China. The aim of this article is to explore whether the future of FOCAC can and would strengthen relations between Africa and China. What are the threats to FOCAC's future? To what extent are the commitments of FOCAC realistic? And more importantly, whose interests does FOCAC serve?

| Summary/Abstract |
China's relations with Africa have grown exponentially over the past decade. During the 1990s, Sino-African trade grew by 700 per cent and many high-level visits occurred from 1995. China's heightened political interest in Africa has paved the way for the entry of Chinese companies of all sectors into Africa's economies. The entry of Chinese companies into Africa, largely state-directed in nature, is spurred on by the need for energy security and new markets, as well as specifically political objectives. Their engagement in Africa, though not without its challenges, has the potential to benefit both African countries and Chinese commercial interests.
