CONCLUSION: What Drives China’s Growing Role in Africa?
This paper intends to provide an assessment, based on fractional information, of China’s economic involvement in Africa and to identify the forces shaping burgeoning China-Africa economic relations. The study is undertaken against the background of a rapidly changing landscape of international trade and finance that has eclipsed traditional aid flows to middleincome countries, making Africa ever more central for development finance.
New Approaches to Trade Development in Africa
One of the new approaches that can be used to foster trade development in Africa is establishment of export processing zones (EPZs). EPZs or duty free zones are areas where domestic and foreign firms locate their production facilities for manufacture, assembly or processing of goods.

Technology Transfer through Training Spillovers
HRD activities conducted by the MNEs have proven to be important for host developing countries since domestic firms are more likely to face training constraints due to market failure. MNE training is also important since it is most likely to bring in the advanced skills and technologies to which domestic firms otherwise have no access. One important channel through which this technology may transfer from MNEs to domestic firms is the so-called training spillovers.
HRD Policies to Promote Training and Spillovers
The above assessment of selected past empirical evidence suggests that firms, in spite of large productivity gains, underinvest in training due to market failures such as credit market constraints, lack of information and labour turnovers. The underinvestment is even more acute among small- and medium-sized domestic firms that tend to have higher productivity gains from training compared to MNEs or large domestic firms. It has also shown that MNEs have numerous channels to improve HRD in host developing countries by training their own workers and facilitating training spillovers. This calls for policy measures to tackle market failures in training and to stimulate training spillovers, especially among domestic small- and medium-sized firms.
When the Fed Bails Out the BIG 3...Who Bails Out the Dealers?
The Senate and House got a jolt this week while debating whether to bail out the Big 3 when it was learned that we shed over 500,000 jobs in November. The possibility of additional job losses from the domestic auto industry became the main reason for rushing to approve a bail out. Weʼll call it “Job 1”, coining a phrase from Ford. During the wonder years of post 911 rebates, 0% financing, and high margin sales of pick-ups and large SUVʼs the domestic manufacturers started adding new dealership locations like drunken sailors, diluting the value of the existing locations, lowering their sales, raising their marketing expenses for a share of voice in the over crowded print and electronic media, while forcing additional inventory on all of the locations.
