Over the past decade, Chinese energy companies have been actively pursuing oil and gas acquisitions across various African countries. In order to delve into the activities of these Chinese energy companies in Africa, this book conducts a comprehensive investigation into their operations in Nigeria, Angola, Sudan, and Tunisia.
Drawing from seven years of extensive empirical research and numerous interviews with Chinese government and company representatives, Chinese Energy Companies in Africa offers a groundbreaking perspective on the emergence of domestic interest groups in foreign policy. It explores the profound impact of non-state actors on Chinese foreign policy, particularly the growing significance of national oil companies (NOCs).
Supported by an extensive array of data, this book stands as the first of its kind to specifically focus on the foreign policy behavior of an authoritarian state and the role played by non-state actors within it. In addition to presenting the main cases studied, it includes a chapter of comparative mini-cases, providing further insights into the complex dynamics at play.
This book holds significant implications for policymakers and scholars alike. It serves as a valuable resource for those engaged in the fields of foreign policy, international security, and international relations. By shedding light on the complex interplay between state and non-state actors, Chinese Energy Companies in Africa contributes to our understanding of the evolving global landscape and offers valuable insights into the future of international relations.
