dc.description.abstractIn 2001, Camp Lemonnier was established as the United States’ sole permanent base location in Africa and the future home of the Combined Joint Task Force Horn of Africa (CJTF-HOA) and United States Africa Command (AFRICOM). Along with Djibouti’s limited supply capabilities, China’s increasing influence in the region has the potential to affect the Department of Defense’s (DoD) ability to fulfill mission requirements. This research analyzed China’s methods of economic statecraft by examining Djiboutian growth and historical uses of similar strategies. This research found that China has implemented commercial strategies that the United States does not use in Djibouti: strategies that have provided economic and political advantages, and that the United States could adopt. This research applies concepts learned from the Chinese to benefit DoD acquisitions and the United States’ international economic strategy.en_US
