Description

Using newly released data from the Chinese government, the author analyzes the economic and political ideas underlying the recent surge in Sino-Latin American relations. Focusing on China's relations with six major trading partners - Brazil, Cuba, Chile, Peru, Mexico and Argentina - he provides an assessment of trends and prospects for an emerging bilateral economic partnership. He Li concludes that Sino-Latin American ties have become less ideological and present PRC involvement has been largely compatible with Western interests.
