Harry Verhoeven and @nicolaslippolis discuss their new research on the geopolitics of Africa's debt. They flag how the use of debt resolution for geopolitical point-scoring can be harmful for the US, China and, above all, African countries. @AfricaAtLSE blogs.lse.ac.uk/africaatlse/…

New paper on the danger of ascribing Africa's debt troubles to China's 'debt-trap diplomacy', while ignoring their structural causes. Unless global initiatives address the true drivers of sovereign debt and more financing is made available, Africa's debt woes will only get worse
