Beyond the ‘China threat' Chinese investments in Eastern Europe

Regions

Publication date:

A second webinar of a four part series run by TNI on 30 years into the ‘transition’: East European New Left Perspectives. This webinar explored Eastern Europe's entanglement into Chinese capital. 

Based on case studies of Chinese investments in Hungary and Serbia, this panel discussion looked behind the “China threat” narrative, and attempted to contextualize Chinese investments in Eastern Europe as part of a broader global reorganization of capitalism and corresponding shifts in hegemonic power.
