Abstract: Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, South-South cooperation has attracted growing interest, leading to the creation of forums of emerging countries such as BRICS. Africa, the continent that hosts the greatest number of developing countries, is an inescapable fact. Within Africa, South Africa occupies a predominant position, thanks to its political stance and its economic weight. However, this country does not always occupy the role it would hope, and at times finds itself competing with well-established ex-colonial states. As a result of China’s growing presence in Africa, South Africa is increasingly faced with obstacles. Studying the development of relations between these two countries reveals that the closeness offered by a ‘mutually beneficial relationship’, as an alternative to North-South cooperation, is not always beneficial for all.
