  • Descrição: Chinese outward foreign direct investment (OFDI), since the reform and opening up in 1978, has experienced from slow growth to today\'s vigorous development. Under the leadership of the Communist Party, the increasing development of Chinese economy and outward investment have all strictly followed the path of The Five-Year Plan. Besides of the success that China made on its economy in just 30 years, more scholars have focused on the intentions and motivations of Chinese large scale outward investments. Aiming to know better about China\'s motivations on OFDI, this dissertation studies and analyzes Chinese investment policies profoundly and comprehensively through a chronological as well as spatial order. Specifically, it demonstrates the development process of Chinese OFDI\'s general policies by analyzing official sources of documents and legal provisions, and then in spatial dimension it compares Chinese investment policy with that from developed countries. It follows by discussing the Chinese different investment policies in different levels of countries and in different regions. All these analyses will provide an integrated and overall cognition about the perceptions of China in its practice of outward investments. Finally, this work chooses Brazil as a case study, which has been an important new destination of Chinese OFDI but also an emerging power, in which Chinese policies in general have been devoting increasing attention in the last years. By interviewing Chinese companies investing in Brazil for some years, this study investigates whether the motivations that discussed or mentioned previously have been applied in practice in Brazil. The result of all five interviews done with three Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and two private companies shows us that the diversification of investing sectors, demand for resources and political goals have been weakened little by little, while expanding new markets and profit are still the main drivers. Furthermore, private companies have gained more flexibility and autonomy where their investment scale is relatively smaller than of SOEs, which maintain a close relationship with the Chinese government but are also slower to make market decisions. Other ten companies and institutes that had not reacted to our interviews show us many Chinese are cautious and reluctant to share their thoughts.
