BERNAL-MEZA, Raúl. The Use of Two Latin American Theoretical Contributions of International Relations in Contemporary Chinese Thought: The Cases of Prebisch and Escudé. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2018, n.64, pp.75-87. ISSN 0123-885X.  https://doi.org/10.7440/res64.2018.06.

The article analyzes the use, by Chinese academics, of Latin American ideas on international relations, some to do with political economy and others with foreign policy. It shows how such ideas have become known in China and used to interpret relations with Latin America and discuss China’s own foreign policy. It makes two points: 1) that the use of this theoretical thought shows the Chinese search for alternative theoretical approaches and its use seeks to counter the thesis of the Chinese threat and the theory of neocolonialism and 2) that theories originating in Latin American form part of China’s internal debate on its own foreign policy. The article is based on studies by Chinese authors, published in Spanish or English, and others originally written in Chinese, which have been especially translated for the author.

Palabras clave : international relations; theory; China; Latin American thought.
