Challenges to China's Economic Statecraft by Yi Edward Yang

Fueled by its surging economic strength, China has been increasingly utilizing economic tools such as trade, foreign aid, foreign direct investment, and sanctions to pursue strategic and security interests on the world stage. This approach, known as economic statecraft, has thus far received mixed policy results and ambivalent reactions from the international community. This book presents a collection of global assessments of China's economic statecraft. The contributors to this volume answer three key questions: What are the challenges faced by China's economic statecraft? Why is China sometimes able to achieve its foreign policy objectives via economic statecraft and sometimes not? How do foreign countries, particularly the targets of China's economic statecraft, respond to China's strategies? This comprehensive study examines economic statecraft in the context of more than a dozen nations and international organizations across four continents, thus providing a truly global perspective.
The essays combined in this thoughtfully organized volume provide some very insightful, theory-guided assessments of the global dimension of China's economic statecraftThese analyses offer new insights into the dynamics underlying the country's rise to global power status. This is a must read for IR specialists, practitioners, as well as scholars seeking a deeper understanding of the most recent transformations and reconfigurations of China's political economy. -- Nele Noesselt, University of Duisburg-Essen
