Summary:碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 亞太研究英語碩士學位學程(IMAS) === 102 === Some decades ago, we wouldn’t have imagined that this Asian giant, China, would be categorized as the most attractive markets in the world. The business and economic environment is under investigation, not just because of its faster economic growth but also due to the nature of its success. Nowadays, the economic world is focusing in establishing closer ties with China because the future perspectives ensure us that it will have direct implications in business directions, academic arena, trade policy decisions, and investments directions. This thesis attempts to study the case of Peruvian economic, political and social reforms during the 1990s as a way to establish closer economic and trade relations with China. The impact of China’s rise will be analyzed from a more general case, meaning China’s economic impact in the Latin American and the Caribbean region as a whole, followed by the impact in the specific case of the Peruvian economy. The Peruvian case will focus in the trade opportunities before and after the FTA Peru-China and the current economic relations of both countries. In order to see the complementary relation in matters of trade policies, the research will include a brief analysis of China’s “going global” policy to the Latin American and the Caribbean region and the opportunities it will bring to the region. The study found enough evidence to confirm the fact that China’s position in the international market enabled the Peruvian economic growth during the period 1991-2011. Second, the opening trade policies raised by Peru during the 1990s enabled it to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the Chinese market. Finally, we corroborated that the growing demand of goods and services from China has influenced Peruvian exports of traditional and non-traditional products in a positive way.
