Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Recent years have witnessed China’s increasing presence in Latin American countries, specifically focusing on FDI in the natural resource sector. However, researchers have found that Chinese enterprises invested overseas will likely be involved in conflicts with local stakeholders and have difficulty seeking a social license to operate (SLO). Therefore, it is worth exploring the mechanism of Chinese investments in the Latin American market and the management of corporate social responsibility (CSR) of Chinese enterprises in foreign investment. The main research objectives of the thesis are summarised below. (1) Exploring the mechanism of Chinese enterprises entering Latin America, especially the relationship between Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and the state government. (2) Analyzing the interactions between Chinese mining SOEs and non-governmental stakeholders in Latin America and the causes of mining conflicts. (3) Describing Chinese enterprises’ management of CSR overseas, especially in seeking the social license to operate (SLO).
