China and Latin America:
The Dragon in the Room
For the past five years Mexico and other countries in Latin America have been sliding down the list of competitive nations in the world economy, especially relative to China. What is more, China is increasingly demanding primary commodities from Latin America. Will these twin trends of losing competitiveness in manufacturing markets and revitalizing primary commodity production threaten the industrialization and long-run growth prospects of Latin America? What are the environmental aspects of these trends, especially with respect to increasing commodities trade? What lessons can be drawn from China’s development model? GDAE's Kevin P. Gallagher is collaborating on empirical work that examines these questions and more on the increasingly intricate China-Latin America relationship.
