Chinese investment in Africa has rapidly expanded in recent years and garnered significant attention. There has been considerable concern that this investment will increase corruption in African states. However, there has been little academic scrutiny or examination of these claims. This paper proposes and tests the theory that the effect of FDI on corruption is dependent on the source country, specifically proposing and testing the hypothesis that Chinese FDI has a more detrimental effect on corruption than FDI from developed economies. By analyzing a random effects model with pooled cross-sectional, time series data on corruption and foreign direct investment from 52 African countries from 2002-2012 I show that, contrary to the theoretical prediction, investment from Chinese sources does not have a significantly different effect on corruption than foreign investment from developed countries. Though Chinese investors are less deterred by high levels of corruption, their investment in more corrupt countries does not increase overall corruption levels.

In order to explore whether China-Africa exchange will influence on the African environment. This paper selects four paths of China-Africa exchanges and explores the impact of each path on the African environment under the influence of different factors. We found that construction income and Africa’s exports to China will increase Africa’s carbon emissions. Foreign direct investment and China’s exports to Africa will lead to a reduction in carbon emissions in Africa. The resource moderation will reduce the significance of the environmental impact of each path on Africa. Based on the above conclusions, several suggestions are made on the policies and actual operations in the path of China-Africa exchanges.
