Description of From Rivalry to Partnership?

"From Rivalry to Partnership" is the first to study a potentially valuable way forward in tackling the challenges of Africa, namely bilateral partnerships. This book evaluates the significance and strength of the emerging Anglo-French partnership and explores how far this and other forms of 'bilateral' and 'bi-multi' cooperation might serve as a valuable alternative or complement to traditional unilateral and multilateral approaches in Africa. Practitioners, established academic experts as well emerging scholars in the field bring to bear a sophisticated synthesis of neoclassical realism and 'discursive institutionalism' and findings from over 100 research interviews to explore how joint approaches and bilateral partnerships have been used to address the challenges of Africa. In developing this argument, the editors explore: Anglo-French cooperation in Africa; other bilateral partnerships in Africa, notably the Nordic states and the US; the Africa-EU Strategic Partnership; and, the China-Africa partnership and its implications for the EU-Africa partnership and for leading European states.
Written in a clear and accessible style, "From Rivalry to Partnership" offers a much needed fresh insight on whether and how bilateral partnerships make a real difference to people's lives on the African continent.'
