China Engages Latin America

Bag om China Engages Latin America

This book explores Chinäs engagement with Latin America and the Caribbean as a case study of its broader effort to use commercial tools and instruments of state to create a global economic order that functions to its benefit, while neutralizing challenges from institutions, states, and others that would oppose it. Unlike the common representation of the Cold War as a political-military struggle, this work uniquely examines Chinäs current efforts as primarily seeking to dominate global value chains, with supporting political, technological, and military components. In this regard, it both leverages and goes beyond works based on dependency theory, which has played a key role in the academic and popular discourse in the region. The book examines evidence for Chinäs economically-focused strategy within Latin America and the Caribbean, including the interrelationships and coordination between Chinäs activities in different sectors, and between commercial, political, and otherdimensions in the region. It further looks at the supporting role played by a diverse range of Chinese initiatives, from Chinäs Belt and Road initiative, to people-to-people diplomacy, soft power, security engagement, and the PRC struggle with Taiwan for diplomatic recognition in the region, among others. The book highlights the implications for Latin America and the Caribbean, and for the U.S. whose prosperity and security is intimately tied to the region.
