What is China really doing in Africa? Media headlines about huge aid packages propping up pariah regimes, land grabs, regiments of Chinese labor, and the ruthless exploitation of workers and natural resources in some of the poorest countries in the world have sparked fierce debates. But is this the real story? Deborah Brautigam, author of The Dragon's Gift: The Real Story of China in Africa, draws on three decades of research on China in Africa to sort out the myths and the realities of Chinese engagement.

Deborah Brautigam, professor, American University
