中国在非洲的崛起经常被描述为对美国（美国）和欧盟（欧盟）民主促进政策的重大挑战。中国被指责提供了大量不附带“政治条件”的贷款、发展援助、贸易和投资，从而削弱了美国和欧盟为改革设定物质激励的可能性。这篇文章调查了埃塞俄比亚和安哥拉的两个案例，人们可以预期，中国日益增长的存在使欧盟和美国更难支持改革。本文提出的实证研究结果与这一论点相反。在这两个国家，欧盟和美国都面临着巨大的困难，使各自的政府解决治理问题。然而，中国的存在并没有使美国和欧盟实施其战略变得更加困难。相反，实证分析表明，埃塞俄比亚和安哥拉的国内因素，特别是两国政府面临的政权生存挑战的程度，影响了两国政府与欧盟和美国接触的意愿。
The rise of China in Africa is often described as a major challenge to the United States (US) and the European Union (EU) democracy promotion policies. China is accused of providing important volumes of loans, development aid, trade and investments without “political strings” attached, thereby undermining the US and the EU's possibilities to set material incentives for reforms. This article investigates Ethiopia and Angola as two cases where one would expect that the growing presence of China has made it more difficult for the EU and US to support reforms. Empirical findings presented in this article go against this argument. In both countries, the EU and the US face substantial difficulties to make the respective government address governance issues. However, the presence of China has not made it more difficult for the US and the EU to implement their strategies. Instead the empirical analysis suggests that domestic factors in Ethiopia and Angola, notably the level of challenge to regime survival both governments face, influence both governments’ willingness to engage with the EU and US.
