China has recently emerged as one of Africa’s top business partners, aggressively pursuing its raw materials and establishing a mighty presence in the continent’s booming construction market. Among major foreign investors in Africa, China has stirred the most fear, hope, and controversy. For many, the specter of a Chinese neocolonial scramble is looming, while for others China is Africa’s best chance at economic renewal. Yet, global debates about China in Africa have been based more on rhetoric than on empirical evidence. Ching Kwan Lee’s The Specter of Global China is the first comparative ethnographic study that addresses the critical question: Is Chinese capital a different kind of capital?
Offering the clearest look yet at China’s state-driven investment in Africa, this book is rooted in six years of extensive fieldwork in copper mines and construction sites in Zambia, Africa’s copper giant. Lee shadowed Chinese, Indian, and South African managers in underground mines, interviewed Zambian miners and construction workers, and worked with Zambian officials. Distinguishing carefully between Chinese state capital and global private capital in terms of their business objectives, labor practices, managerial ethos, and political engagement with the Zambian state and society, she concludes that Chinese state investment presents unique potential and perils for African development. The Specter of Global China will be a must-read for anyone interested in the future of China, Africa, and capitalism worldwide.

用戶評價
三個關鍵詞：accumulation、production、ethos。兩個對象：銅礦業和建築業（兩種截然不同的用工方式和工業傳統）。在此之上，用民族誌的方法考察中國的國傢資本和其他國傢的私有資本在贊比亞的不同。它比人們想像的更加靈活，有可協商性，同時也並非總是將逐利放在第一位。理論框架很漂亮，背後站著三個人，馬剋思，韋伯，波蘭尼。
评分懸置“中國在非洲是不是新殖民主義”這種裹挾瞭太多國傢政治polemic的問題，轉而從“資本（而不是資本主義）的多樣性”入手，通過對比中國SOE和跨國私企在贊比亞的采礦業（附帶一些建築業）的幾個方麵（資本積纍邏輯、勞工體製、管理精神），為思考中國在非洲、中國和資本主義世界體係打開瞭局麵。理論依托大緻來自Weber（資本者的文化“精神”）、Polanyi（反資本的社會counter-movement）、Wallerstein（世界體係中的國傢和資本的勾連）、William Sewell（資本主義的時間性，eventfulness/contingency）。對贊比亞本土的曆史/政治語境和agency介紹得頗清楚；作者自陳後期能田野無阻是因為認識瞭之後上颱成為國傢副總理的反對黨人士。
评分好書，但是海外國企與中國國傢之間的細微互動沒有展現，估計也是作者拿不到的資料。

评分在eventful sociology的視角下，藉助波蘭尼的embeddedness的概念，分彆從accumulation、production、ethos三個方麵對贊比亞銅礦業和建築業的Chinese state capital和global private capital進行考察，得齣結論：這兩種資本因為各自不同的積纍需要導緻他們采取瞭不同的regimes of production,（which in turn were enabled by different ethoses of management，同時還提到由於國傢和社會之間的政治協同，以及贊比亞當地社會和國際政治經濟的變化的影響，中國資比全私資更易對贊比亞勞工需求妥協（磕磕絆絆地讀完瞭，重點讀瞭chapter1，沒咋讀透
