Ambiguous Regimes: The path leading to China’s inclusion in Africa

Abstract

The idea for this project came after the COVID-19 pandemic. The resurgence of China-Africa relation in international politics during China's intense propaganda to divert attention from its domestic affairs has made the author research the critics addressed to China to help Africa fight the pandemic as its increasing influence in Africa politics. The subject was treated in many ways but not in a way that accesses the path that has led to China's profound implication in Africa. The study has shown that Western power had contributed to promoting China's economic and political rise in Africa affairs. So This made the author curious to develop an analytical framework to address this question ''Why the West is such angry of China strong implication in Africa'' and to scoop into the empirics explanation given the rapidly evolving relations between China and Africa, We focused the research on the failure of democratization consolidation, pragmatism realism and difficulty for Africa nation to legitimize their government. For thinking about Chinese activities in Africa, we demonstrated the need for greater nuance between the West's contribution to the democratic process and China's methods to make allies and show China's impact on Democracy. Hence this study analyses the steps that have led China in its position in Africa countries' foreign policy.
