The role of the chinese ied in Latin America and the Caribbean: Cooperation South - South?
Abstract
Historically, Sino-Latin American trade and financial relations have been very limited. However, the recent resurgence of the Chinese economy has meant the strengthening and expansion of its economic relations with the rest of the world. In this sense, the Latin American and Caribbean region have constituted an important piece of this process, in which the economic aspects but also the politicians have played and play a relevant role.
The focus of the analysis throughout this study is placed on foreign direct investment flows of Chinese origin that have arrived in the Latin American and Caribbean continent from 2000 to 2016. Thus, the question that arises in the present study is whether these linkages can be categorized as South-South cooperation or center-periphery relations.
