Abstract

This chapter applies the method of qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) to analyse the data. It thus draws up raw data and truth tables for the determinants of development cooperation from China and India in Africa, before interpreting the findings with the application of Boolean algebra . This chapter thus specifies very clearly what the primary causes for the outcome of interest were throughout the period under examination.
