description Over the past decade, Chinese cooperation in Latin America and the Caribbean has gained momentum, propelled not only by growing trade, but also by increasingly diverse political, security, technological, and cultural ties. While this cooperation has brought tangible benefits, it has also generated new dynamics of competition, including among the actors involved in development assistance. This article examines some of the effects of Chinese cooperation, looking at the risks and opportunities as well as other donors’ reactions to China’s involvement. Our analysis highlights four key trends that may be intensified by an upsurge in Chinese cooperation: priority shifts, donor displacement, civil society exclusion, and regional fragmentation.

Over the past decade, Chinese cooperation in Latin America and the Caribbean has gained momentum, propelled not only by growing trade, but also by increasingly diverse political, security, technological, and cultural ties. While this cooperation has brought tangible benefits, it has also generated new dynamics of competition, including among the actors involved in development assistance. This article examines some of the effects of Chinese cooperation, looking at the risks and opportunities as well as other donors’ reactions to China’s involvement. Our analysis highlights four key trends that may be intensified by an upsurge in Chinese cooperation: priority shifts, donor displacement, civil society exclusion, and regional fragmentation. En el último decenio, la cooperación china en América Latina y el Caribe ha ganado fuerza, impulsada no solo por el comercio creciente, sino también por los vínculos políticos, tecnológicos, culturales y de seguridad que se han diversificado progresivamente. Si bien esta cooperación ha generado beneficios tangibles, también ha provocado nuevas dinámicas de competencia, incluso entre los actores involucrados en la asistencia para el desarrollo. Este artículo examina algunos de los impactos de la cooperación china, a partir de la investigación sobre los riesgos y oportunidades, tanto como las reacciones de los donantes respecto al involucramiento chino. Nuestro análisis destaca cuatro tendencias que se pueden intensificar debido al aumento de la cooperación china en la región: cambios de prioridades, desplazamiento de donantes, exclusión de la sociedad civil y fragmentación regional.
