Commentary: Competition for Global South

Beskrivelse

Li Xing, a professor at the Department of Politics and Society of Aalborg University, is discussing the shifting dynamics of global relations. He highlights the increasing importance of the 'Global South' in international relations and China's role as a global superpower. Mr Xing argues that China's economic growth and investment in the Global South through initiatives like the Belt and Road Initiative are creating "upward mobility" for these countries. He also suggest that China needs to counter Western narratives of "neocolonialism", "neo-imperialism", and "debt traps". (Summary provided by Infomedia) Sources:China Daily , 14-03-2024
