The New Scramble for Africa

Available for over a year

Mike Wooldridge reports on the quiet economic inroads into Africa being made by India. He asks if we are witnessing a modern-day scramble for Africa as India, along with the world's other most populous country, China, seriously compete with each other to engage resource-rich Africa. If so, what will be the consequences for the continent as a whole and will it benefit or be damaged by this competition? A Ruth Evans production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4.
