So explains indefatigable traveler Howard W. French, prize-winning investigative journalist and former <em>New York Times</em> bureau chief in Africa and China, in the definitive account of this seismic geopolitical development.

Frenchs acute observations offer illuminating insight into the most pressing unknowns of modern Sino-African relations: Why China is making these cultural and economic incursions into the continent; what Africas role is in this equation; and what the ramifications for both parties and their peopleand the watching worldwill be in the foreseeable future.</p><p><strong>One of the Best Books of the Year at <em>The Economist</em> <em>The</em></strong>Guardian Foreign Affairs</p>...2953456Chinas Second Continent230299https://www.gandhi.com.mx/chinas-second-continent-9780385351683/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2268532/1ed5b4e1-db58-4583-97f7-03080f21a997.jpg?v=638383741992800000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20149780385351683_W3siaWQiOiIxNjJlMWI5Ni0yMzhkLTQ5NWYtOTdlMi04ODM0Mzk2OWRkZjEiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI5MSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjY3LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjIyNCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDItMDJUMDU6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d;9780385351683_W3siaWQiOiJhNzY4YmNlZS1jYWY3LTQyNTYtOGY1YS04ODAzN2FjYzc0ZWYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI4MCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjY0LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjIxNiwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDItMDVUMDY6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780385351683_<p><strong>A <em>New York Times</em> Notable Book</strong></p><p>Chinese immigrants of the recent past and unfolding twenty-first century are in search of the African dream.
