Abstract

In the article, the author considers the national models of modern international
development and cooperation policy based on experience and specifics of China’s approach.
China’s role and importance in contemporary international economic assistance programs is
steadily increasing at bilateral and multilateral levels, including the appearance of such Global
Initiatives as, Belt and Road, BRI (2013), Global Development Initiative, GDI (2021), and
others. The global confrontation and fragmentation of international cooperation desperately
require the elaboration of a new strategy for developed and developing countries. In this respect,
the goal of this brief study is to deepen the knowledge on the mentioned topic among academic
and business communities, students, and researchers, as well as NGOs. The historical roots
of the foreign assistance policy of China, its content, principles, and philosophy present the
integral parts of the publication. Special attention is devoted to the cultural component of the
Chinese programs of international development policy, which differs them from other countries’
practices.
The author exploits mostly comparative analysis in his article as a theoretical method of study.
