主講人♡:Costanza Franceschini,PhD Candidate in Cultural and Social Anthropology at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy. Costanza has conducted ethnographic research on Chinese infrastructure development cooperation in Ghana, focusing on labour relations and employment dynamics at Chinese construction sites in Ghana, negotiating processes and agency in Sino-Ghanaian construction projects, and the impact of infrastructure development on local communities. Costanza is tutor and assistant to the chair of Cultural Anthropology M-Z (prof Manuela Tassan) at the Department of Human Sciences for Education “Riccardo Massa”, University of Milano-Bicocca, Bachelor’s Degree in Educational Sciences.

內容簡介:Drawing on thirteen months of fieldwork research, the presentation illustrates the multiple actors, interests, dynamics, and (power) relations that shape contemporary Chinese construction projects in Ghana. In particular, it presents the case of the implementation of a Chinese-funded and -built infrastructure project between July 2019 and December 2022, which involved the construction of fishing harbours and landing sites in twelve local communities along the Ghanaian coast and discusses the questions of “Chineseness” and “dilution of Chineseness” of contemporary Chinese infrastructure development cooperation projects and their global assemblages.
