Abstract

Despite endeavoring to construct an image as a contributor to a harmonious world," China faces criticism for bringing neocolonialism back to Africa. This case study of Uganda offers a quantitative and qualitative basis for examining how young Ugandans understand and interpret China" and the Chinese." It also suggests how these perceptions could be applied to Sino-African relations in general and the Beijing-Kampala relationship in particular.
