520 "This report explores China's rapidly expanding
involvement in Africa in order to better inform U.S.
thinking about its relations both with China and with
African states. The report pays particular attention to
geostrategic competition in Africa, potential security
threats, and opportunities on the continent. It examines
the economic, political, and security interests driving
Chinese engagement with African states and assesses
potential medium-term changes in Sino-African relations
across these three dimensions. It then assesses how
China's interests and behavior on the continent affect the
interests of the United States. In this matter,
misperceptions often result from faulty assumptions about
the potential for conflict over resources, images of Cold
War-style geopolitical competition, and the nature of
China's economic engagement with the continent. The report
concludes by offering policy recommendations for U.S. and
Army leaders concerned with U.S. security relationships
with African states and with managing Sino-American
relations in Africa. In particular, the report recommends
that the United States should view China's sometimes-
unfavorable activities in Africa in context and continue
to seek opportunities to engage Beijing on mutual
interests, such as defeating violent extremists, improving
African infrastructure to promote trade and development,
and encouraging economic and political stability on the
continent."--Page 4 of cover.
