Chinese-African Relations : Focus on Globalization and Liberalization of Resource Exploitation - Research

China has become a major player in the global politics of the contemporary world. Their emergence as major player in the world is driven by their radical commercial enterprises across many states of the world. This study is on focused on Chines-African relations. The qualitative study which used secondary material found that the diplomatic activities of China in Africa are driven by the quest to institutionalize Chinese capitalism, mineral resource exploitation and economic expansion. The situation is worsened for Africa due to the promotion of globalization of multinational investments, which undermines local African companies while ensuring that African migrants have no easy access to the Euro-American States. The study therefore recommends that African States should encourage high tariffs against Chinese and Euro- American companies in order to revitalize local industries. Again, African states must learn to trade with each other in the areas that they have comparative advantage.
