Public ISBD Titre : Comparing the Determinants of Western and Chinese Commercial Ties with Africa Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : David G. Landry, Auteur Editeur : China Africa Research Initiative Année de publication : July 2019 Collection : Working Paper num. 29 Importance : 50 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Chine  Afrique  Entreprises  Gouvernance  Commerce mondial  Pays en développement Résumé : Many have hypothesized that Chinese firms undermine the global drive to promote good governance in developing countries, and in Africa in particular, by targeting poorly governed countries for commercial ventures. These papers by David G. Landry test that hypothesis. They are the first to explicitly compare the determinants of Chinese and Western commercial activities through quantitative modeling and find that governance quality among African countries plays a positive role in predicting their commercial activity, in terms of their foreign direct investment inflows, exports, and imports—with both Western countries and China.

Lessons from East Asia / Keyi Tang    

Public ISBD Titre : Lessons from East Asia : Comparing Ethiopia and Vietnam’s Early-Stage Special Economic Zone Development Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Keyi Tang, Auteur Editeur : China Africa Research Initiative Année de publication : April 2019 Collection : SAIS-CARI Working Paper num. 5 Importance : 33 p Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : Zones franches  Commerce de libre-échange  Ethiopie  Vietnam  Entreprises  Développement industrielle  Développement économique Index. décimale : 03.01 COMMERCE / MONDIALISATION Généralités Résumé : This paper compares how Ethiopia and Vietnam, two rising stars actively employing industrial policies as catalysts of structural change, have learned from East Asian countries’ experiences in developing their own special economic zones (SEZs). Based on an extensive literature review, a comparative case study of four SEZs, and interviews with key stakeholders involved in early SEZ development in the two countries, I found that SEZ policy learning was largely driven by each nation’s domestic economic reform. Policymakers in Ethiopia and Vietnam actively visited successful SEZs around the world, particularly those in East Asia. A Chinese and a Taiwanese overseas SEZ were the first SEZs developed respectively in Ethiopia and in Vietnam, which provided eye-opening lessons for domestic policymakers on how to better improve the legal and institutional framework, infrastructure, and administrative services needed for SEZ development. Overall, however, one of the biggest obstacles facing Ethiopia and Vietnam in learning from China’s experiences is the lack of local autonomy given to SEZs in their own administration.
