主讲人：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. Costanza is also an Adjunct Researcher at the Centre for Asian Studies, University of Ghana, Legon and one of the four founders of AISAC (Italian Association for Africa-China Studies), created in January 2023 as local network chapter of the Chinese in Africa/Africans in China Research Network (CA/AC Research Network), Michigan State University.

内容简介：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.

基于13个月的田野调查，本次讲座展示了塑造加纳当代中国建筑项目的多重参与者、利益、动态和（权力）关系。该研究以2019年7月至2022年12月期间中国投资和建设的一个基础设施项目案例，该项目涉及在加纳沿海的12个当地社区建设渔港和码头，讨论了当代中国基础设施发展合作项目中的“中国性”、“去中国性”及其全球组合。
