But the growing Chinese influence in Africa over the last 20 years goes even further: the African continent not only supplies China with raw materials and cheap labour, but is also an important geopolitical territory. Is there really such a thing as a win-win deal between the leading economic power with the oversaturated market and rapidly developing Africa? Or is this a new form of colonization? [arte]
