Will Africa Feed China?

摘要

The accusation that foreign countries have been involved in "land grabbing" whereby huge swathes of Africa are being handed over to corporations at bargain prices, with a concomitant negative link to food security has captured the attention of various media outlets. Often at the forefront in being accused of such practices is China. That many of these reports and accusations are grounded in often dubious (or downright false) information is the main theme of the book under review. Written by the premier expert on Sino-African relations, Deborah Brautigam's book explores the falsehoods and actualities behind the headlines.
