      abstract = {This book focuses on underexploited data drawn from  various legal disputes over the Doraleh Container Terminal  in order to paint a portrait of SSC when it comes to  infrastructure financing and construction in Africa as  provided both by the UAE and China. By producing a detailed  account of the drivers behind these disputes as well as the  broader political outcomes they have generated, this study  provides invaluable conceptual and empirical lessons on the  contemporary meaning of SSC. In doing so, it helps readers  garner a more acute understanding of the role played by  Global South states and the private sector (SOEs) against  the backdrop of SSC. Benjamin Barton is the author of  Political Trust and the Politics of Security Engagement:  China and the European Union in Africa (2017) and co-editor  of China and the European Union in Africa: Partners or  Competitors? (2011). His research interests centre around  economic statecraft and local agency attached to the BRI.  Barton is Associate Professor at the University of  Nottingham Malaysia, where he convenes modules on Chinese  foreign policy and on the geopolitics of the Indo-Pacific.},
