Abstract
Indonesia has grown in global stature as an emerging power and as the fourth most populous country in the world has significant growth potential. It is from this perspective that István Tarrósy explores the relationship between Indonesia and Africa. He mainly focuses on the developmental implications of Indonesia’s engagement with two key African markets: Nigeria and South Africa. He asks whether there is an Indonesian way of interacting with the continent, and if so, what the developmental implications are for Africa.
