Abstract

China, a newly empowered state that aspires to regional and ultimately global hegemony, is interested in strengthening the extremely backward and underdeveloped Africa. We believe that the reason for this policy can be traced back to China's “grand strategy.” To confirm this, the study aims to examine China-Africa relations in the context of the “Grand Strategy”, analyze the reasons for China's interest in this region, and investigate how the Asian giant uses “soft power” on the African continent to achieve its goals. To this end, the study formulates the following research question: What role does Africa play in implementing the goals of China's fourth “Grand Strategy”? As a result of the study, we will try to show that China's interest in African states is related to the implementation of the goals of China's “Grand Strategy” (the fourth – the rising phase) and serves to increase the latter's political, economic, institutional, and cultural influence.
