Description
In this in-depth and wide-ranging study, Shirzad Azad explores the changing relationship between post-Saddam Hussein Iraq and the People's Republic of China. China in Iraq After the War charts the deepening relationship between the two countries since the 2003 American-led invasion, that has seen China become the biggest international stakeholder in Iraq. The book uncovers the scope of China's and Iraq's collaboration in a number of sectors, including military, economic, technological and cultural and considers the motivating forces behind this unlikely relationship.
