🎉Thank you @eric_olander and @stadenesque for a great discussion on labour relations in Sino-African construction sites.
The podcast is based on the chapter I wrote with @MandiraBugzy, based on my ethnography in Lamu Port construction site in Kenya

A very strong overview of BRI at ten years from @lili_pike, quite a contrast with most of the US coverage.
What a difference it makes drawing on experts like @BUBeckyRay, Christoph Nedopil Wang, @eric_olander instead of pandering to great power fixations.

This episode of the China in Africa Podcast from @eric_olander and @stadenesque is just outstanding. @EKMatambo is brilliant — and make sure to listen to the very end, about the S. African singer who killed it on a Chinese singing contest! thechinaproject.com/podcast/…

These articles are misleading at best. The Pew survey's 24 countries, while damning of China's efforts, only convey part of the story. Other polls in the Global South, such as the Afrobarometer & Arab Barometer, show that China is seen favorably, in fact, even more so than the US
Under Xi Jinping China has spent tens of billions of dollars to boost its soft power. Ten years later, people around the world like China less than ever. [My take]

Joe - Given interest, sharing a great @ChinaGSProject p’cast on Africa/China/Russia & related topics.
To my mind, @stadenesque & @eric_olander (+ @KaiserKuo) have some of the most critical, evidence-based reporting out there on #GlobalSouth & #Africa.

In our @AfricaCarnegie newsletter for July, we examine the top global destinations for higher ed. for African students. In 2020, France hosted approx. 126,000 African students, followed by China with 81,500 students, and the U.S. with 48,000.

This episode was really interesting especially what @eric_olander had to say at the end about Washington having lost its nuance on China issues

Proud of the excellent work my @cornellgov PhD student Yufan Huang is doing with Deborah Brautigam!
1/5
I finally read the very good paper by Deborah Brautigam and Yufan Huang on "Integrating China into Multilateral Debt Relief". For those interested in the topic of sovereign debt restructuring, and China's role in it, it is well worth reading.

It’s tough to “compete with China” in the Pacific when you’re busy sinking your own boat. And how do we think we look to the rest of the world?

When was the last time you thought abt the illegal trafficking of African #donkeys?
Never? Same here.
Here’s a mind opening discussion between @stadenesque, @lajohnstondr & @eric_olander on a subject that truly deserves greater attention.

"Currently, 36 out of 69 low-income countries are in, or close to debt distress. Given the difficulties in accessing liquidity, it is no wonder that a growing number of countries are drawing on Chinese swaps." -@GDP_Center

Pirates took command of a Chinese-operated oil tanker this week 300 kilometers off the coast of Ivory Coast in the Gulf of Guinea. The incident comes amid heightened fears among Chinese expatriates in West Africa.
