China and Latin America: Extractive industries, foreign politics and integration

Abstract

On this occasion, the Andean Magazine of Political Studies presents its sixth volume, which brings a special Dossier on the current state of relations between China and Latin America. This number of the RAEP was made in the framework of the activities that the Institute of Andean Political Studies has been carrying out with the Community of Chinese and Latin American Studies of Beijing (CECLA), which is inserted within the wide bibliographic production that is taking place around the character of China's so-called 'rise' (also called 'return') to the international arena as a leading actor. There is no geographical area in the world that has not been affected by this process, so there is a growing interest on the part of Governments, think tanks, Universities and Research Centers in general.
