Description

Sudan Looks East : China, India and the Politics of Asian Alternatives, Paperback by Large, Daniel (EDT); Patey, Luke A. (EDT), ISBN 1847010377, ISBN-13 9781847010377, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This volume of essays looks at Sudan's relationship to emerging Asian powers, particularly China and India. As oil trade with the US was legally prohibited, markets to the East became valuable not just as sources of income, but as development partners and allies in the emerging global order. These essays look at: how oil transformed the Sudanese economy, how human rights activists connected the plights of the Chinese and Sudanese peoples during the 2008 Olympics, the connection between Sudanese and Malaysian Islam, Indian and Chinese investment in Sudan, and other issues. The contributors are academics from around the world with backgrounds in area studies, international studies, and political science. Distributed in the US by Boydell & Brewer.
