DESCRIPTION:The lecture will be held by Yen-Chi Lu and is the last in the 
 series "Infrastructure\, Capitalism\, and Dependency in the Digital Age".\
 n\nThe rise of Chinese high-tech companies such as Huawei\, Alibaba\, and 
 DeepSeek has sparked concerns about China’s global influence\, particula
 rly in the Global South. Are we witnessing a new era of "data imperialism"
  established by China? While this perspective captures the destructive eff
 ects of dependency\, it often overlooks the agency of these countries vis-
 à-vis China\, the complex realities of Chinese engagement on the ground\,
  and the transformative power of digital platforms. The lecture addresses 
 this gap by empirically and conceptually deepening our understanding of de
 pendency in the digital age. Through case studies of Malaysia and Ethiopia
 \, this talk will explore the limitations of China's digital power and ill
 uminate the strategic pathway of digital development that is emerging for 
 countries in the Global South.
