Written by a diverse group of international scholars, this volume provides insight into five interlocking questions and areas: the origins of China and Taiwans continent-wide competition for supremacy; China and Taiwans foreign policy towards Africa during and after the Cold War; the shift in dominance from Taiwan to China; the changing allegiances of African governments; and the implications of ongoing China-Africa-Taiwan relations on the global system, especially on countries in the Global South. This book is divided into three parts. Part One deals primarily with the early history of both Chinas on the continent. Chapters in Part Two discuss the foreign policy of China and Taiwan toward the African continent. Part Three focuses on the shifting alliances and diplomatic allegiance of African countries towards the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC). Filling the gap in Africa-China-Taiwan studies, this volume will be of interest to researchers and students in the social sciences especially political science, comparative politics, international relations, foreign policy, politics of developing nations, area studies, and Taiwanese/Chinese studies. 410 0$aAfrica-East Asia International Relations 606 $aRecognition (International law) 607 $aAfrica$xForeign relations$zChina 607 $aAfrica$xForeign relations$zTaiwan 607 $aChina$xForeign relations$zAfrica 607 $aTaiwan$xForeign relations$zAfrica 615 0$aRecognition (International law) 676 $a327.5106 702 $aAbidde$b Sabella Ogbobode$f1962- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910564690203321 996 $aChina and Taiwan in Africa$92836960 997 $aUNINA
