  This article traces the impact of China¡¯s engagement on development in Venezuela from 2001 to 2023. We build on long-established theories of development and evaluate how the relationship has influenced three conditions crucial for development: industrialisation, economic diversification, and institutional strength. We discuss the impact of Chinese engagement in three phases: the first phase runs from 2006 to 2016, when bilateral investment funds were active; the second phase, from 2016 to 2023, is characterised by the sanctions imposed by the U.S. and Venezuela¡¯s economic collapse. The third phase begins in 2023, marked by an attempt to reactivate the Venezuelan private sector through Special Economic Zones (SEZs). We argue that while China has emphasised its engagement in the Global South as one that prioritises development, in Venezuela, it has, in fact, contributed to the opposite. Earlier in the relationship, oil dependency deepened, and the governance of the binational development funds lacked accountability and oversight, producing feedback loops that countered diversification and weakened institutions. In recent times, the relationship has turned into a more traditional dynamic of dependency: Venezuela receives limited investments for low-productivity jobs and serves as a market for consumer products while exporting commodities, resulting in a structural stagnation.

  This chapter explains the form of authoritarian capitalism that is emerging in Venezuela. We integrate insights from the ¡°varieties of capitalism¡± literature with that of Weberian state theory of the developmental state and its opposites, to explain the evolving form of capitalism in Venezuela. This system is broadly characterized by the dominance of private property and of production for profit by private companies, but economic opportunities are conditioned by political loyalty to the government and its allies. Its evolution is part of the regime's autocratic consolidation, which rests on repression, co-optation, and strategies of institutional legitimation. Under authoritarian capitalism, economic policy-making is driven by the regime's need for staying in power, in part through benefiting a small group of key supporters. Characterized by a state with weak capacity, this system reproduces inequalities, is largely uncompetitive, and can deepen pockets of violence and predation. We build on empirical work carried out in Venezuela in the past decade, including surveys with emerging business sectors as well as interviews with experts, businesses, and policymakers.

  It is a common critique of the Global South that its rising protagonism is a tool for authoritarian forces. The prominent role of authoritarian countries in coalitions such as BRICS and the Non-Aligned Movement, which claim to represent the Global South, has strengthened this concern. To shed light on those issues, this paper provides an in-depth case study of the 2024 elections crisis in Venezuela and the role of the Global South in resolving it. The question asked is to what extent countries identifying with the Global South were able to simultaneously promote democracy and adopt a foreign policy identity aligned with the Global South. The paper shows how the position and action of different Global South countries differed significantly, from an outright rejection of the fraudulent elections, to their endorsement. There were also concerted efforts by countries strongly identifying with the Global South to facilitate a democratic solution. The main argument developed is that a Global South narrative¡¯s interweaving of anti-imperialism and opposition against foreign interference with opposition against liberal democracy promotion has left a limited space for democracy advocacy among countries with a Global South identity. This may weaken democratic forces among Global South countries in the future.

  The term ¡®Global South¡¯ has seen a resurgence in recent years, evolving from a synonym for the ¡®Third World¡¯ to a geo-historical concept representing low- and middle-income countries and emerging powers. Despite growing prominence in global policy debates, its meaning remains contested. In this introductory article to the special issue, we first discuss five distinct interpretations identified in the literature. We emphasize that Global South is characterized by internal diversity, evolving roles, and shifting alliances, while remaining anchored in the broader struggles for global justice and systemic transformation that give the concept its political meaning. The second part analyses the role of the Global South in reshaping global governance as countries within this grouping navigate strategic balancing between major powers, influencing emerging multipolar dynamics. Through a dialogue with the articles in the special issue we illustrate how the role of the Global South moves far beyond being critical of the west and a liberal world order, but rather both challenge and reaffirm some of the norms underpinning such an order. The third part discusses how South-South Cooperation (SSC) emerges as a vehicle for reconfiguring global cooperation, driven by strategic interests and diverse forms of engagement. The articles in this special issues provide examples of the multifaceted nature of this engagement. Overall, this special issue provides insights into how the Global South¡¯s complexities intersect with geopolitical shifts, challenging traditional norms and offering new frameworks for global governance transformation.

  The role of China in the world and in Latin America is rapidly changing. From being a fast-developing nation, scouring the world for raw materials and markets for its own industrialization, it has set out to be a global leader, also on climate change mitigation. This has become a geopolitical issue, particularly since it involves energy and land use change. China is seeking to secure its interests through building multilateral coalitions and striking bilateral agreements that allow the combination of pursuing their own geopolitical interests and climate mitigation goals and tying a broad set of countries into China¡¯s orbit. This paper discusses how this process shapes Latin America¡¯s climate agenda. China¡¯s agenda diverges on many issues from those pursued by Latin American countries and actors. At the same time, Chinese strategies meet resistance, due both to Latin America fragmentation and other actors¡¯ geopolitical interests, mainly those of the EU and the USA. I argue that China is pursuing a vision of a green transformation placing ¡°development¡± in focus in line with a ¡°thin¡± understanding of sustainability. What is emerging is a ¡°transmuted¡± multilateralism wherein new institutions coexist with existing ones that are given new content.

  The rise of China as a trading partner, lender, and investor is among the most significant developments in the global political economy over the last two decades. This shift has created important new opportunities for developing countries, but it has also introduced new challenges, with benefits and drawbacks unevenly distributed across different nations. This paper argues that understanding the developmental consequences of China¡¯s involvement requires studying not only Chinese priorities and modalities but also the interests and strategies of local elites. The development of Latin America has been profoundly influenced by these elite interests, which are shaped by the region's integration into the global economy. Elites may leverage the benefits of the relationship to China to enhance their rent-seeking capabilities and limit competition, thereby hindering development and perpetuating inequality in Latin America. This argument is examined through the contrasting cases of Chile and Venezuela: while Chile¡¯s approach to China has been dominated by private sector elites, Venezuela¡¯s has been driven by governmental elites. In both cases, integration with China is shaped by and in has in turn strengthened interests and strategies of the elites.

  During the global COVID-19 crisis, China has portrayed itself as a ¡°champion of multilateralism¡± ¨C defending UN institutions and its own multilateral initiatives in a variety of spheres. China¡¯s approach has, however, often been criticised for undermining multilateralism through its use of multilateral platforms as arenas to contest US leadership. This paper examines the official Chinese discourse on multilateralism during the COVID 19 crisis in the years 2020 and 2021 in light of Beijing¡¯s multilateral diplomacy in the Global South, exemplified by the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) and the China-CELAC Forum (China¨CCommunity of Latin American and Caribbean States Forum). The authors argue that China¡¯s growing multilateral engagement must be understood in the context of a multilateral system that was already in crisis before the pandemic due to its inability to resolve major global challenges. The term ¡°multilateralism¡± is essentially used by Beijing to discursively oppose ¡°unilateralism¡±. While its active multilateral engagement may be able to prevent and resolve major global crises in the future, Beijing¡¯s approach offers limited multilateral spaces for deliberation and contestation by weaker states and non-state actors.

  ABSTRACT Propelled by a commodities boom and expanding South¨CSouth investment, mega-projects have reshaped the politics of labour in many African settings. Reflecting on such dynamics, this article critically engages with questions of employment, skills development, and contestation re-configuring capital¨Clabour encounters in the ¡®Chinese¡¯ and ¡®Brazilian¡¯ workplace in Mozambique. We analyse two mega-projects: the Maputo Ring Road, implemented by the China Road and Bridge Corporation, and the Moatize Coal Project, led by the Brazilian mining company, Vale SA. Engaging with the complex realities at project ground level, the article unpacks how workplace regimes and outcomes reflect an intricate, multi-scalar array of spatial encounters, sector-specific characteristics, and national political economies. For both cases, this is associated with common promises of development and prosperity for Mozambique. While such promises take on different ideational guises, we show that the Chinese and Brazilian workplaces expose, nonetheless, overlapping patterns of inequality, contention, and hostility, reinforced by broader vulnerabilities and imbalances in global production networks and the Mozambican political economy. By providing a ground-level reading of the multi-scalar forces at play in the workplace, this article sheds light on the relationship between emerging South¨CSouth global encounters, national political realities, and labour geographies in African contexts shaped by mega-projects.
