This book analyzes the progress, gains, and effects of Chinese overseas ports through in-depth and systematic studies of numerous cases in Europe and Latin America.China’s participation in overseas ports, especially under the rubric of the Belt and Road Initiative, is a matter of great concern to businesspeople, policymakers, and researchers pondering the implications of Chinese infrastructure activities and overseas investment. Yet there is insufficient knowledge concerning the actual nature of China’s role in specific ports, the economic and other consequences associated with that involvement, and the wider economic, political, and environmental effects of those economic effects. The chapters of this book fill these gaps by examining ports in diverse European countries like Denmark, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom and various Latin American countries, including Brazil and Jamaica. The book illustrates why Chinese seaports succeed or fail, why they have the military, economic, and other consequences that they do, and why these consequences produce or fail to generate other effects such as political influence.This book will appeal to audiences with interests in China’s overseas seaports, foreign direct investment (FDI), and infrastructure specifically and foreign direct investment, geopolitics, and the political economy of national security more generally.

This book examines PRC “involved” seaports overseas, where involvement can take the form of PRC foreign direct investment (FDI), contracting, and/or terminal operations, in countries such as Cambodia, Pakistan, and the Philippines.Including country-oriented chapters, the book sheds light on inter alia the realization (or not) of Chinese seaports, the effects of Chinese participation on port performance, trade, FDI, employment, and the environment, and the wider economic, political, and other ramifications of China’s role. Importantly, the case studies in the book clearly demonstrate that among these ports there are successes and failures, positive or negative effects are not preordained, and domestic and international political factors notably influence what occurs in these overseas ports. The book also illuminates the critical role of third parties (including India) in shaping the dynamics of China’s participation in Southeast and South Asian ports and evaluates the potential for Chinese-involved ports to become naval bases.Presenting contributions from experts on Southeast and South Asia and utilizing rich empirical data to reveal the factors that are driving China’s participation overseas, this book will appeal to those interested in Asian and Southeast Asian international relations and political economy as well as China’s Belt and Road Initiative and infrastructure activities.

This book explores the economic and political effects of Chinese outward foreign direct investment (COFDI) through in-depth and comparative analyses of COFDI in economically and politically diverse Southeast Asia countries.Featuring 21 case studies of COFDI in Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Cambodia, the book looks at three core effects, namely, employment, technology transfer, and domestic political effects. The case studies also explore the negative social outcomes of Chinese investments in these nations as well as serious environmental issues linked to COFDI, ranging from the destruction of forests to the loss of biodiversity to air and noise pollution.Revealing both the negative and positive impacts of COFDI in these Southeast Asian nations, this book will be a valuable resource to policymakers as well as students and scholars of Chinese and Southeast Asian economics and politics.
