REPORT


“Over the last decade, Evan Ellis has developed an encyclopedic knowledge of China’s crucial and increasingly complex relationship with Latin America. In his latest book, Ellis illuminates the new dimensions of that relationship. His highly detailed account of the expanding role and presence of Chinese companies in the region is an invaluable contribution and will surely become a standard reference for scholars, policy analysts, and decision makers. No one has a better grasp of how China is shaping Latin America’s economic and political landscape.” —Michael Shifter, President, Inter-American Dialogue, USA “No scholar in the US has his ear more to the ground on China in Latin America than Evan Ellis. Now, in this thorough new book, he is kind enough to share those insights with us. A must read for all those concerned about Latin America, China, and foreign policy.” —Kevin P. Gallagher, Author, The Dragon in the Room: China and the Future of Latin American Industrialization, USA “Fearing a growing dependence on natural resources and on China, Latin America is seeking more added value and diversification. China, on the other hand, will need more natural resources in order to expand its footprint on financial markets and to export more complex goods. Both are adapting and learning from one another. Evan Ellis delivers an impressive analysis that enables us to anticipate the evolution of these relationships and to guide Latin American decisions. The book will serve as a tool to help government officials formulate more efficient public policies. It will also be a great resource for Chinese companies seeking to operate in the region and multilatinas trying to penetrate the Chinese market.” —Sergio Bitar, Former Senator and Minister of State under Presidents Salvador Allende, Ricardo Lagos, and Michelle Bachelet, Chile “To fully understand the growing presence of China in Latin America, it will be essential to read Evan Ellis’ new book, Chinese Companies on the Ground in Latin America. Evan Ellis provides an in depth analysis of the goals and tactics of Chinese companies in the region. Their presence will only expand in the years ahead and this is the one volume that will help analysts, businessmen, and policy makers understand the current interests and long term goals of Chinese companies.” —Riordan Roett, The Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), Johns Hopkins University, USA
