Over the past several decades China's engagement with African countries has grown tremendously, becoming one of the most momentous developments on the continent since the end of the Cold War. China has emerged as Africa's single largest trading partner, while Chinese investment in and lending to African countries have also expanded rapidly. In Eritrea, located in Northeast Africa, Chinese involvement and cooperation have also considerably intensified in recent years. However, despite this growing bilateral relationship, and even as there has been extensive study and wide coverage of China's ascendance across much of the rest of the continent, there has been a dearth of attention devoted to China-Eritrea engagement and relatively little is known or understood about their relationship.Accordingly, this book hopes to help fill the existing lacuna. Based on field research and undergirded by extensive, robust data, it provides a clear-eyed, comprehensive, and up-to-date examination of China-Eritrea relations across a range of areas and sectors.
