Summary: | This Thesis focuses on China!s foreign policy toward Africa during 2000-2007. The objective is to examine factors and characteristics of China!s foreign policy toward Africa during 2000-2007. It employs is the concept of national interest as conceptual framework. The study found that after the third plenary session of the Communist Party of China!s Eleventh National Congress in 1978, China undertook important changes in its domestic and foreign policy strategies under the leadership of Deng Xiaoping. It shifted its foreign policy approach to Africa. China!s diplomacy in Africa (1949-1978) was heavily influenced by ideology and put strong emphasis by fully supporting the independence movements in Africa. However, since 1978 China!s focus shifted to its expanding trade and investment, especially in the late 1990s. As China!s dynamic economic growth fueled an increasing appetite for energy and other raw materials, Africa has become important region for China!s oil and natural resources supplement. At the turn of the century, new circumstances brought China and Africa closer together. China!s policy toward Africa was concentrated on two aspects. First, China is deepening China-Africa cooperation in the economic field. Second, China!s engagement in Africa is driven by its growing need for resources to ensure its own economic growth. This study showed that during 2000-2007, China enhanced friendship and cooperation with Africa and its new approach contributed to the expansion its relations with Africa in various ways, including a substantial increase in its economic consistence to many countries in Africa |
