While the continent\u2019s weak infrastructure and low economic performance make it difficult for them to be a powerful actor on the world stage, their endless potential for growth could make them critical to tipping the scales of power in global relations. Africa traditionally fell under the USA\u2019s sphere of influence. Mainly due to the millions of dollars of humanitarian aid and other material support.<\/p>\n<p>The balance began to shift when China started focusing its attention on the continent as well. Peking has taken on a different, more assertive role after realizing their own economic and political clout. One of their objectives was to carve out a piece of the USA\u2019s global hegemony. The number and value of Chinese investments to Africa has been sharply rising over the past decade. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) increased by approximately 40%. That number doesn\u2019t even include the sizable contribution of government aid and subsidies. The end result was that Chinese investments eventually outstripped US investments.<\/p>\n<h2>Funding these investments<\/h2>\n<p>President Xi Jinping enacted an ambitious policy for extending Beijing\u2019s influence over Africa. One of the major hindrances of China\u2019s economic development is a lack of resources. Strengthening their position in Africa could serve as a long term solution for this issue. Their method for doing so included the development of local infrastructure in return for mining rights. The construction of roads, railways and utilities played a key role in this process. Not only did they produce a public good, but at the same time it also cemented Beijing\u2019s influence in the region. Eventually the infrastructure developments extended past simply constructing transport routes between mines and harbors. When local governments didn\u2019t have the required funds to pay for them, China was more than happy to lend them the necessary amount through both government credit and commercial loans to use for infrastructure development.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s development model for Africa was difficult for the US to keep up with for a few reasons. For one thing, the US economy has become overwhelmingly service oriented by the turn of the century. Consequently the only companies able to enter the African markets were the ones who could make use of the telecommunications network resulting from China\u2019s infrastructure developments. The fact that a Chinese firm was the final beneficiary of the projects financed by the IMF or the World Bank is a testament to the efficiency of their construction industry. Despite the USA\u2019s clout with those international organizations, their strict rules stipulate that their projects must be chosen by public procurement procedures. China\u2019s ability to present these tenders with companies who were already present on the continent gave them a significant competitive advantage against western companies. In the end China received 42% of all orders.<\/p>\n<h2>Beijing vs. Washington<\/h2>\n<p>Another advantage for Beijing is that they didn\u2019t attempt to impose any democratic or other ideological requirements on African governments. They kept the cash and credit flowing even without meeting any human rights criteria. The western model of exporting not just money, but culture as well, just couldn\u2019t compete. China\u2019s brand of economic rationality proved to be popular with countries less inclined towards democratic values. The USA\u2019s chosen method was to directly fund non-governmental organizations to circumvent the local governments and help their populations directly instead. This is the so-called the Government-to-Business model that China eschewed in favor of the Government-to-Government model.<\/p>\n<p>According to OECD estimates, Beijing has lent $140 billion dollars worth of funding to Africa since 2000. In 2018 Beijing approved an additional $60 billion within the framework of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation for its participants. Said partners previously only had access to a humble budget of $95 billion. These resources play a critical role in the continent\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>Huawei and Transsion have a close to monopolistic hold over in the development, maintenance and operation of the telecommunication networks. For trade it\u2019s Tencent and Alibaba who have the same level of influence. The US has fallen behind in the race so it\u2019s their strategic interest to diminish the resources China has to invest. If the outcome of the ongoing China-US trade conflict is that Beijing is forced to focus more of its resources internally, for the US that would be a favorable outcome that strengthens their position. While there are a number of reasons for the two superpowers to resolve the conflict, this particular area is one of the reasons for why they wouldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>If you enjoyed this topic, you can read more about China&#8217;s investments in Africa <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldbank.org\/content\/dam\/Worldbank\/Event\/Africa\/Investing%20in%20Africa%20Forum\/2015\/investing-in-africa-forum-china-and-africa.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The trade tensions between China and the US have been discussed ad nauseam in countless articles.
