This thesis presents development strategies of the European Union and China inside the African continent. The European long presence in the African continent was challenged by China, the new actor on the international scene. Western system guided by the OECD regulations and demands was confronted by China, the biggest developing country demanding ‘win-win’ cooperation policy based on mutual benefit and non-interference. Based on the materials collected it seems like African leaders are welcoming Chinese approach, which has ‘no conditions’ and no demands but with economic and trade opportunities. This thesis compares those two models by looking into Chinese and European Union’s their strategy and conditionality
