While once China’s relations with Latin America focused on revolutionary movements and social justice, today China’s focus is on markets and materials. With this change have come tensions and new relationships to define and cultivate. From village level competition to tensions at the level of government and industry, changes in both China and Latin America have generated new problems to negotiate, and new relationships to define and cultivate. This panel explores the changing role of China in Latin America, the economics that drive relations, cultural overtures, and opportunities for the future.
