Providing a comprehensive exploration of China-Angola relations from 2003 to 2025, this book unpacks historical Sino-Angolan relations and contemporary evolutions in their relationship.

China has played a pivotal role in Angola's reconstruction since the Angolan Civil War. Using archival documents and interviews, the author explores China's contribution to Angola's development and its contradictions with particular interest in the privatisation of state relations, the abundance of corruption and opacity, the financial problems caused by China's intervention, debt and Angola's disenchantment with Chinese government's interventions. Structured into three parts, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the historical context of the China-Angola relationship, analyses the Golden Age of Sino-Angolan relations and untangles Angola's disillusionment.

By tracing the evolution of this relationship across political, economic and institutional dimensions, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of how African states navigate structural constraints while asserting agency in pursuit of national development.
