DESCRIPTION:The lecture will be held by Dr. Li Hangwei and is part of the 
 lecture series "Infrastructure\, Capitalism\, and Dependency in the Digita
 l Age".\n\nThis lecture explores Mauritius’ digital engagement with Chin
 ese tech giants and argues that\, despite persistent asymmetric relationsh
 ips\, small island developing states like Mauritius possess the agency to 
 choose among various digital partnership offers. However\, the risks of te
 chnological lock-in\, money politics\, and the growing need to utilize dig
 ital tools for surveillance (even within a democracy) add complexity to th
 e country’s decision-making process when navigating its digital partners
 hips. The lecture also offers a comparative understanding of how Mauritius
 ’ approach may differ from that of other African countries\, such as Ken
 ya and Zambia.
