Today, by many accounts, China is the world's foremost purveyor of
foreign aid and foreign investment to developing countries. This is
the product of China's miracle economic growth over a period of
more than three decades, together with China's drive to become a
major player in world affairs and accomplish this through economic
rather than military means. This three-volume work is the first
comprehensive study of China's aid and investment strategy to trace
how it has evolved since Beijing launched its foreign aid diplomacy
at the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China in
1949. Volume II provides an analysis of China's foreign aid and
investment to countries and regional organizations on the Asian
continent, covering all of its major sub-regions, during the period
from 1950 to the present day. Copper considers motivating factors
such as the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and China's desire to
challenge the West and later the Soviet Union. Also important to
China and driving its aid and investment was China's pursuit of
Communist Bloc solidarity, a search for secure borders, and
competition with India for influence in the Third World. Securing
its imports of energy and raw materials and markets for is products
came later. Marginalizing Taiwan and defeating it diplomatically
constituted another goal of China's foreign aid and foreign
investment analyzed here.
