How the US Can Compete More Effectively with China in Zambia

 The World Politics Review published on 29 August 2024 an article titled "The U.S. Can Provide an Alternative to China in Sub-Saharan Africa" by Ben Kallas, CEO of Searchlight, and Glenn Chafetz, director of the 2340 research group.

Drawing on lessons from Zambia, the authors argue that western companies can compete successfully with Chinese companies by following better business and labor practices, aided by more appropriate U.S. government funding and giving Africa more high-level attention.
