Why is the China-Africa and China-South Africa relationship so successful? In today’s Western-dominated world, China’s geopolitical approach stands out as unique. It contains a deeper philosophical dimension and is the result of a leadership evolution spanning millenia that has culminated in President Xi Jinping, a dynamic leader who has, since he took office in 2012, creatively fostered, strengthened, and cemented relationships tailor-made for local African conditions.

Whilst the overall theme of the book is President Xi’s tremendous effort and myriad contributions to the China-South Africa relationship, another goes hand in hand with that.

This is a much needed and timely book that interrogates the role of culture, identity and ideology in cross cultural communications. The authors provide critical insights on the nature of interactions between the peoples of Africa and China.
