Utilization of Sae Man Geum Korea-China Economic Cooperation Area and Political Supporting Methods for Sustainable Development among Regions

The purpose of this article is to examine Sino-Italian political and economic cooperation. The first part of the paper reviews the still ongoing process of China`s ambitions to present itself as a 'non-Other' to the international society by carrying out economic development and political opening and offering the Belt and Road Initiative to international partners. However, Beijing still faces (un)justified accusation that it affects the implementation of the already established norms, principles and procedures of the international law, sustainable development, geopolitical order, and geoeconomic distribution of wealth. For the purpose of this research, our focus will be on Italian understanding of the maritime perspective of the Belt and Road Initiative. The second part examines tools that the two countries use for overcoming obstacles to political and economic cooperation, whilst striving not just to widen and strengthen mutual trust, sincerity, and pragmatism, but to protect national interests as well.

Development Goals

All member states of the United Nations adopted Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015. The 17 SDGs describe a universal agenda that applies to and must be implemented by all countries. We take the metrics and data provided in the SDG Index and Dashboards Reports and the Report of a Study by Stakeholder Forum and transform them into a fuzzy logic setting. This allows for the analysis of the results in these reports by using techniques of mathematics of uncertainty. We focus on countries making up the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). We provide a ranking of the countries in the OECD as to their achievement of the SDGs.

Implementation of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) is one of the key elements of the current international agenda. But some countries, in particular, the least developed countries (LDCs), face serious difficulties in doing so. Such states have very limited internal resources and cannot ensure their own development; as such, they require the involvement of more developed states. Therefore, a key factor to ensure sustainable development is the facilitation and widening of trade and investment cooperation with partners that can provide financing support for the most urgent investment gaps, demand for export products, and imports of necessary goods and services. Traditional collaboration models with partners from developed countries cannot fully meet the needs of the LDCs in the current international context. This situation provides windows of opportunity as new power centres pursue their economic and political goals. China (PRC) has a special place among these emerging powers. This article analyzes the economic cooperation of China with its 10 key trade partners among the LDCs (LDCs-10). The author suggests various rationales for the PRC’s cooperation with the LDCs, examines the importance of this cooperation for achieving the SDGs, and presents an applied methodology. The first part of the article covers the particularities and general assessment of China’s development finance. The author then analyzes the main aspects of China’s trade policy and its trade and economic cooperation with the LDCs-10. In conclusion, the author considers the dynamics of the key indicators of socio-economic and political development of the PRC and the LDCs-10 and evaluates the relative effectiveness and efficiency of their cooperation through the prism of the SDGs’ implementation.
