“China is Building Capacity for a New Role”: Swedish-Sino Economic Diplomacy 2010-2018 Seen from the Case of Trade, Exports and Investments

Bachelor thesis | International Studies (BA)
Abstract: The concept of economic diplomacy and its possible benefits for smaller economies has received relatively little scholarly attention. This thesis researches the Swedish-Sino economic diplomacy from 2010-2018 and concludes that the exchanges have been beneficial for both Sweden and China according to the variables of trade and investments. However, Sweden has seen less value of Chinese investments after the acquisition of Volvo Cars in 2010 and this trend is likely to continue in the near future.
