Beyond Trade: China's Cultural and Political Relations in Africa – Joshua Eisenman

In Pursuit of Development

China's burgeoning relationship with the African continent has been characterized by significant economic investment, trade, and infrastructure development, with China emerging as Africa's largest trading partner and a major player in the continent's evolving economic landscape. In recent years, we have seen an influx of Chinese involvement in African industries ranging from mining and construction to manufacturing and retail. This has been accompanied by an ambitious drive to develop Africa's infrastructure with projects that span roads, railways, ports, airports, and telecommunications networks. But the ties between China and Africa extend far beyond economics. We're witnessing a dynamic cultural exchange, burgeoning diplomatic activities, and even aid and military support. However, these activities have not been without controversy, igniting debates over so-called debt-trap diplomacy and resource exploitation.Joshua Eisenman is an Associate Professor of Politics in the Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame. His research focuses on the political economy of China's development and foreign relations with the United States and the Global South —particularly Africa. Together with David Shinn, Josh has recently co-authored a new book entitled: China's Relations with Africa: A New Era of Strategic Engagement. @Joshua_EisenmanKey highlightsIntroduction – 00:24China and an alternative world order – 03:20The quest for soft power – 10:40Debt burdens and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) – 15:10Revamping the BRI – 18:11Why “debt-trap diplomacy” is misleading – 24:10China's growing relational power - 30:14Increasing the voice of the Global South – 39:57New forms of Chinese multilateralism – 45:53 HostProfessor Dan Banik (@danbanik @GlobalDevPod)Apple Google Spotify YouTubeSubscribe: https://globaldevpod.substack.com/

Since 2019 the Lebanese pound has lost 90 percent of its value and more than half the population lives below the poverty line. The government raised the price of fuel in an attempt to stem crippling shortages, but all it seems to have done is further anger a population that has already run out of patience.

Episode 95 is a special Chiefs Panel on political relations in New Brunswick. From police killings of First Nations people during the pandemic; the province’s refusal to hold an inquiry into anti-First Nation racism; the RCMP raid on reserve-based businesses and now to the province’s cancellation of First Nation tax agreements – the relationship seems to be moving in the wrong direction. I had the honour of hosting Chiefs from NB representing First Nations from both the Mi’kmaw and Wolastoqey Nations: Sakom Chief Allan Polchies Jr., has been Chief of St. Mary’s First Nation in Fredericton, since 2018. Before that he served as Councillor for 13 years and has always been super involved at the community level. His First Nation is part of the larger Wolastoqey Nation. Twitter = chiefallanjr Website: https://www.stmarysfirstnation.com/​ Chief Patricia (Trish) Bernard has been Chief of Madawaska Maliseet First Nation since 2013. Before that, she served as Councillor for 6 years and was also called to the NB Bar in 2000. Her First Nation is also part of the larger Wolastoqey First Nation. Facebook = Trish Bernard Website: https://madawaskamaliseetfirstnation.com/en Chief Sacha LaBillois has been Chief of Ugpi’ganjig – also known as Eel River Bar First Nation – since 2019 and before that also served as a councillor and worked on economic development. Chief Sacha is also my chief! Our First Nation is part of the larger Mi’kmaw Nation. Facebook: Sacha LaBillois Website: https://www.ugpi-ganjig.ca/​ Chief Bill Ward has served as Chief of Metepengiag – also known Red Bank – since 2015. On Twitter, he describes himself as not only the youngest Chief in the Atlantic region, but the coolest. His First Nation is also part of the larger Mi’kmaw Nation.
