This paper explores the dynamic interplay between Africa and China amidst shifts in global power dynamics, examining the implications for both regional and global governance. By examining the complexities of economic cooperation, geopolitical influence, and socio-cultural exchanges, the paper explores the evolving nature of Africa-China relations and their impact on the broader international order. Through a critical analysis of historical legacies, contemporary challenges, and prospects, the paper contributes to a nuanced understanding of the role of China-Africa relations in shaping the emerging world order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"China-Africa Relations in a Changing Landscape of Global Governance\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a3Ro-XdGzfg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Political Science Workshop: The Grand Split?
