AERC Scoping Studies on China-Africa Economic Relations: The Case of Tanzania

“The lessons drawn here have been extracted from broader studies which have analyzed
the China-Africa relations. However, in order to assess their validity to the Tanzanian case it is important, therefore, to commission a country study which will look deeper into the impact of China on the country’s economy with a view to devise a strategy which will enhance the benefits and reduce the risks to the national economy associated with China-Tanzania relations. The rest of the paper is organized as follows. Section two covers diplomatic and
economic relations with China. Section three reviews the impact assessment of Sino-
Tanzania cooperation arrangements, while section four concludes the paper.”
