The Chinese economic policy in African markets: An essay based on evidence and perspectives
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper is an essay that aims to understand China's economic policy in the African markets. As a result, changes in international trade and foreign direct investments (FDIs) from the beginning of the new millennium and to the end of the last decade have been highlighted. The data have shown a clear intensification of Chinese trade and FDIs in African markets in 2017 compared to 2002. This international expansionism is a result of the economic policy adopted by China to gradually push firms to approach foreign markets. Therefore, it has been a consequence of the leading and supporting role of international trade played by Chinese governance.
