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 I examines the definitions, origins, nature, and scope
of foreign aid and investment by other countries. Using that
background, John F. Copper then traces China's financial assistance
to developing countries from the Mao period - when China gave
meaningful foreign aid despite its own economic struggles - through
the beginning of China's post-1978 economic boom and during
subsequent decades of rapid economic growth. Copper shows that
China has a more salient history in giving foreign assistance than
any other country in the world; while China's objectives in giving
foreign assistance have changed markedly over time, China has
always been driven by efforts to realize its foreign policy
objectives and expand China's external influence.
