China's second continent: How a million migrants are building a new empire in Africa

Howard W. French's China's Second Continent examines the massive influx of Chinese migrants and businesses into Africa, arguing it's a new form of neocolonialism driven by China's economic policies and internal pressures like overpopulation. Through interviews with Chinese migrants and Africans, French documents the economic and social transformation of the continent, the complexities of Sino-African relations, and the potential for exploitation through tactics like infrastructure development and resource acquisition.
