Abstract
enThis article reviews about 100 papers on Sino-African relations published during the past five years, for the most part, to put some structure on the existing strands. The literature is classified into dominant schools of thought, namely the: neocolonial or pessimistic; balance-development or optimistic; and accommodation schools. After the classification, I reconcile the schools of thought in light of dominant themes and debates on development models, inter alia: (1) pessimists versus optimists; (2) preferences of rights in development models (economic vs. political, national vs. human, and sovereign vs. idiosyncratic); (3) the Washington Consensus (WC) versus the Beijing Model (BM); and (4) an African Consensus in both the WC and BM. Both the first and second schools have core values articulated by the New Partnership for Africa's Development. Policy implications are discussed with emphasis on: China's growing role, fighting Africa's poverty, and a more holistic conception of “rights.”

Abstract
esExaminamos cerca de 100 artículos sobre relaciones Sino-Africanas publicados en su mayoría durante los últimos 5 años con el objetivo de establecer una clasificación de las ideologías existentes. La literatura es clasificada en escuelas de pensamiento dominante, principalmente: la neocolonial o pesimista; la de balance-desarrollo u optimista, y la corriente adaptativa. Luego de la clasificación se concilian las corrientes de pensamiento en base a los argumentos y debates dominantes sobre los modelos de desarrollo, entre otros: (1) pesimistas versus optimistas; (2) preferencias sobre derechos en modelos de desarrollo (económicos vs. políticos, nacionales vs. humanos, y soberanos vs. idiosincráticos); (3) el consenso de Washington versus el modelo de Beijing; y (4) un consenso africano en el consenso de Washington y el modelo de Beijing. La primera y segunda escuela de pensamiento tienen articulados sus valores fundamentales en la Nueva Asociación para el Desarrollo de África (NEPAD, por sus siglas en inglés). Se discuten las implicaciones en la política pública con énfasis en: el creciente papel de China, la lucha contra la pobreza en África y una concepción holística de los “derechos.”
