专题简介：
新世纪第一个十年、尤其是金融危机以来，非洲国家整体经济表现不俗，正像“亚洲虎”当年被形象地用来描述经济勃兴的东南亚国家，“非洲狮”经济体也正在迅速成为全世界的流行语——2010年世界十大增速最快经济体中，6个非洲国家赫然在列。这样的增长势头，其推力是什么呢？IMF最新报告认为，非洲的增长归因于中、印两国为主的新兴市场对原料的需求。更有学者认为，中国为代表的新兴经济体迅速发展及对非经济合作所带来的机遇实际上正在改变西方传统玩家为主导的非洲地缘政治版图……
Taylor教授将从以下几个方面为你解读非洲当代国际关系：

Two: Of Spin and Mirrors: Britain and New Labour’s Policies toward Africa
Three: Effronterie Magnifique: Between La Rupture and Realpolitik in Franco-African Relations
Four: Back to the Future? The Rising Chinese Relationship with Africa
Five: Hands across the Water: Indian Engagement in Africa
