Cooperation (FOCAC)
The increase in Chinas economic and political involvement in Africa is arguably the most momentous development on the continent since the end of the Cold War. This book seeks to detail the origins, structure, workings and activities of the Forum on ChinaAfrica Cooperation (FOCAC) and its development since 2000.
Mindful of the growing realization that Africa is to play an increasingly important role in global politics, Ian Taylor provides a clear and detailed overview of an organization that has been generally overlooked, despite the exponential rise in the importance of the Chinese presence in Africa.
Topics addressed include:
- the key structures, functions and operations of the FOCAC;
- the importance and development of the triennial summits, including the focus on cultural exchanges and economic cooperation;
- the key criticisms and challenges currently faced by the FOCAC;
- discussion of emerging issuesis it possible to have a win-win
situation between Africa and China, as the FOCAC suggests?
The Forum on ChinaAfrica Cooperation provides a concise introduction to an organizational forum that will be instrumental in the future of Africas relationship with the developed world, and will be of interest to students of African and Chinese politics, International Relations and International Organizations.
Ian Taylor is a professor in the School of International Relations, University of St. Andrews and holds honorary professorships at Renmin University of China, the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa, and the Institute of African Studies at Zhejiang Normal University, China. His recent books include TheInternational Relations of Sub-Saharan Africa (2010); Chinas New Role inAfrica (2009); The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (2007); and China and Africa: Engagement and Compromise (2006).
Routledge Global Institutions
Edited by Thomas G. Weiss
The CUNY Graduate Center, New York, USA
and Rorden Wilkinson
University of Manchester, UK
The Global Institutions series is designed to provide readers with comprehensive, accessible, and informative guides to the history, structure, and activities of key international organizations as well as books that deal with topics of key importance in contemporary global governance. Every volume stands on its own as a thorough and insightful treatment of a particular topic, but the series as a whole contributes to a coherent and complementary portrait of the phenomenon of global institutions at the dawn of the millennium.
Books are written by recognized experts, conform to a similar structure, and cover a range of themes and debates common to the series. These areas of shared concern include the general purpose and rationale for organizations, developments over time, membership, structure, decision-making procedures, and key functions. Moreover, current debates are placed in historical perspective alongside informed analysis and critique. Each book also contains an annotated bibliography and guide to electronic information as well as any annexes appropriate to the subject matter at hand.
